2007 ICT Conference: ICT to Inspire, Challenge & Empower all Learners |
Building Schools for the Future Workshop
This workshop commenced by looking at how we all are using ICT in our daily lives. The technology we use, often web 2.0, such as video sharing websites, social networks, discussion forums, blogs, and the list is endless. The way in which we access these technologies is evolving with many people using their mobile phone or games console to access the internet. This means the school of the 21st century will want to make effective use of the developments in technology, many of which have yet to be invented!
