The purpose of this blog is to, in a sense, act as a parking lot for ideas and information related to engaging the learning committee at my school in ICT. This site is a result of ideas that have formed as a result of my studies in a course about information and communications technology in my Teacher-Librarian program. The course has been engaging and inspirational, it has taught me to look at how and more importantly, why, we use technology in our everyday lives, and in education.
Some of my learnings from the course include an understanding not only of new web 2.0 tools but also a socio-cultural understanding of why we use technology and how barriers to technology use in the classroom can be overcome.
