Latest update from the world of ICTPD Flaxmere…..

  • Flaxmere ICT conference will be held on the 1 Nov so put it in your diary now. Not sure yet as to how it will run, and the breadth of the audience (geographically now) so if you want to come leave a comment and I’ll find out more.
  • Flaxmere is having a kids conference, where the children will have opportunity to share some of the things they have been doing this year with the interactive whiteboards, skype, wikis, blogs, digital movie making, etc etc. Not sure who the keynote speakers will be for that, but again you’ll know when I know.

Well done Russell, if it were your idea, the kids conference is genius because at the end of the day its all about what they are learning and their educational journey. Good on you.

I bet David Warlick or Vicki Davies would think this is a great idea. I wonder where in the world something like a ‘kids ICT conference’ has happened and what it looked like.

  2. Yes, I think it is a great idea to have a kids conference. It would be great to have a conference where the kids can share what helps them learn. Maybe the teachers could sit back and learn something. Great job!

  3. Your right, this is a fantastic opportunity for kids to showcase their learning. I’ll keep you posted as the project develops.
