The Bashful Blogger: iPad and Special Needs
http://belindajjohnston.blogspot.com/2010/08/ipad-and-special-needs.html
Thursday, August 19, 2010. IPad and Special Needs. The timing of my Californian trip was perfect. As soon as I returned I persuaded my husband and started saving for Harry's own iPod Touch in time for his 10th birthday in July. An iPad would have been even better but was out of our price range unfortunately! So it was huge interest that I read this post. While iPads are obviously not the answer to all the difficulties that come with autism I can see a real potential for their use at home and school. ...

The Bashful Blogger: Steve Jobs
http://belindajjohnston.blogspot.com/2012/01/steve-jobs.html
Thursday, January 5, 2012. I was lucky enough to be given the Walter Isaacson Steve Jobs biography. For Christmas by a friend (in fact I got two and I had to return one). I found it to be a thoroughly good read and at times quite inspirational. I certainly kept thinking about it for sometime after I finished reading it which, from experience, is one sign of a good book! Today Rachel Boyd posted this on Facebook and I just had to share it myself - thanks Rachel! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

http://belindajjohnston.blogspot.com/2012/10/ulearn-conference-2012.html
Friday, October 12, 2012. What an amazing three days it's been at ULearn12! Three best things about ULearn12:. Three worst things about ULearn12:. The internet (not CORE's fault). Only one ABBA song at the Conference Dinner. Saying goodbye to friends old and new . Pledge for ULeran 2013 if I'm lucky enough to attend:. As an ADE I will put my nerves aside and participate in the Apple sMACkdown. I've made some notes here. From the presentations I have attended this year. I spoke too much as usual!

Desperately Seeking Blogger: School Holiday Power Blogging - Post No. 5
http://kathypittaway.blogspot.com/2010/04/school-holiday-power-blogging-post-no-5.html
Saturday, April 17, 2010. School Holiday Power Blogging - Post No. 5. After visiting Amanda's blog a few weeks ago I read her post on Apimac Timer. That she downloaded and uses for a variety of reasons but most importantly in her class rotations. I loved that idea, as am always looking for new innovative ways to manage my classroom. After further investigating I realised this was an apple device, so promptly went searching for a pc version and I originally downloaded one from Download 3K. Awesome Inc....

The adventures of nzants. The purpose of this blog is to document my reflections and personal learning through my roles of classroom teacher and e-learning lead teacher. Wednesday, March 11, 2009. Lead teacher workshop number 1. There are many many resources available to us online, some appropriate for our students, some not so much.
