Our own Blog

Well folks, we now have our own Blog. This resulted from the email conversations that were flying back and forward in response to the reference Gary Bass made to an article by Olsen on teaching to learning styles that was on our distribution list. Apparently Olsen concluded that teaching towards students' preferred learning styles in unproductive, and can even be detrimental. It provided immediate debate and discussion.

So we now have a forum for commenting, discussing and keeping in touch. Feel free to practice your ICT skills and leave a comment and when you feel more confident, make a POST. We will be using this Blog , more like a
WIKI , where we can all contribute.

Looking forward to hearing from you all and reading your thoughts.

Hi
I love blogs. I was on the Edna website and discovered a new word (for me) frappa. Simply a world map with a pin that idenifies where you are and a photo... and a 'shoutout'. I couldn't think of anything succinct and witty to 'shoutout' but I'm working on it. Hi seemed a bit bland. Info on frappr.
