Flatout like a lizard drinking

Boy what a day.

Very enjoyable. The speakers today had me glued.

Dianne Chambers is charming and engaging and the session was full of practical ideas and hints. PBL follows very closely the Action Learning Model but I like the PBL no nonesense approach to make it manageable. The idea of engaging children with images is excellent. It helps those late adopters get their toes wet into ICT integration and has enough scope for the Techies to explore the feild of visual language.

I feel somewhat guilty,smiley icon after a brilliant session with Mike Andersonsmiley iconsmiley icon ( the notes are earlier in the Blog) I felt another sit and listen spot was the last thing I needed so I bunkedsmiley icon and sat in on an Apple iDVD lesson. Jim was entertaining and informative I know from experience that introducing the idea of movie making really inspires some reluctant writers and after Mike's session I know that it can support a good writing programme from either ignition, sequencing and even through to publishing. I must admit it is refreshing to see ICT being used for more just being a flash typewriter.

I just hope I can keep up the hectic pace. Note for anyone doing this next time. . . plan where you might have to be as late speakers can make you run ALL DAY. I am positive that is not healthy for you.

Quote of the day goes to Dianne Chambers " How do you eat an elephant? Answer, One bite at a time"
