Sounded like a great session that you ran, very reflective on the whole process at LNPS and inquiry learning. Now I feel better that i will be able to stay in the loop. I was a little worried last night. I am able to access your blog from school, which is great!

I know that particular post is a bit localised and has that "you had to be there" quality about it. But as well as exploring new tools, professional networking and big concepts, blogging on school based stuff has a lot of value, even if a large portion of my readership may just hit the "mark as read" button. Moving forward is important and our school's journey is unique and may help those at differing stages of their own. There are plenty of critics of IWB technology and I like the fact that we are trying to use it as transformative technology for classroom pedagogy - we actually expect a lot more from our teachers in their IWB prowess than many of the schools I've seen or read about.

It was a very informative session. While many attending were there to find out more about IWB and inquiry learning I found it a great reflective session to see how as a staff with many new technologies and pedagogies introduced to us over the year we have been able to connect them and move forward in a very short time frame. For me it was a great opportunity for reflection,deepening my understanding of what we are aiming to achieve with e-learning and above all to celebrate our school's journey and achievements. I also enjoyed the opportunity of being to able to assist with part of the presentation. Maria Paladino Well done Graham. It was a very informative session.
