Speaking of student doing evil deeds on computers...A VERY interesting discussion occurred on a conference wiki after a presenter (promoting server security) called his prospective presentation 'The Enemy Within: Stop Students from Bypassing Your We…
Hi Rob,
I have had THE most painful video experience with a JVC Everio camcorder. In fact, cutting off my left arm would be less painful than trying to load one of the video clips onto WMM.
"oh yes this would be very easy for students to use" says t…
HI Rob, I agree with your frustrations on people thinking that kids will use technology for evil wherever possible. It was interesting to note that at the recent Kids Congress held in Bendigo it was the Non Netbook schools' students who were the fir…

Unfortunately the sound is not the best quality- we will have to invest in some headsets but it's our first attmpt so the kids are…
What a great story. I love the fact that this was an on the spur opportunity that blossomed into something highly engaging and exciting Larissa. A great example of differentiated learning which sounds like so much fun. Are you going to share where t…

Hello Narissa,
Audacity can be a bit flaky on Vista - I just get the kids to save often. The more annoying thing is the number of times of I have to re-configure netbook sound cards everytime I want to use audio with different student groups (where'…
Yes! It was quite unstable fo rme on Friday. we had to save and resave many times! Thank goodness my students could see the shining ligt at the end of the tunne and new it was worth persisting for.
I even tried it on different versions of Audacity a…
On Friday about half of my students were at orienteering- what to do with the remainders? I scrapped the work plan for the day and decided to create a radio station for our class- 5LFM.

Hey Narissa,
We sent our netbooks home mid last term. We have found things going pretty smoothly...We did have one student leave it on the boot of his Dad's car and drive away.....!!!!! But it's been an isolated incident. Beginning to have some issu…

5LFM has been launched!
On Friday about half of my students were at orienteering- what to do with the remainders? I scrapped the work plan for the day and decided to create a radio station for our class- 5LFM.
We have been studying 'Protecting Our Planet' in class and that was to be the theme for Friday's episode. After discussing the different segments of a radio station the students broke up into groups of no more than 4 and worked together to type up a script. In the end we had;
A song about protecting our planet wi… Continue

Netbooks and homes
Hi all,
I am just wondering how many schools have sent their netbooks home already and are there schools out there who haven't? Was speaking to a grade 6 parent last night who had no idea when their child would be able to take their netbook home. I was under the impression that all students should have done this by now??
Any problems with students who have taken them home?
Any good things happening?
Cheers,
Narissa

Students found wandering alone in foreign country...
Ok, so it may not be an official country but there are currently hundreds of students wandering around alone and unarmed in Cyberia.
After spending a bit of time recently talking to students in schools about cybersafety I have been alarmed at the lack of knowledge the students have. I fear that we may have skipped over this vital element in our over crowded curriculums in the last couple of years. Is the problem that teachers don't know how to go about it? Do we need to develop a guide for teach… Continue
