{{fup|A}} Try out cumulative talk by asking pupils to create a class story, contributing one line each whenever they are handed the magic microphone by their peers. Use some of the techniques discussed in this session to create a supportive environment, for example: positive body language, enthusiastic tone, listening to each other before speaking and building on what the previous person has said. Encourage any shy children to have a go, and repeat the activity with another topic on other occasion so they get more used to public speaking.

{{activity|stgw|Browsing the OER4Schools resource.|30}} Now browse to http://www.oer4schools.org and identify a topic that is useful or of interest to you. If you have brought a laptop (or another device to which you can connect a USB stick), you should also browse the offline version provided. The offline version has all content from the http://oer.educ.cam.ac.uk, including all videos. There is a lot of content, but for now focus on the OER4Schools resource. As you are browsing make a note of what you find, and consider:
* PMI: What do you think is a plus, what is a minus, what do you find interesting? Why?
* How would you be able to use this resource for your own purposes?
Please appoint two scribes, and make notes. (Write on your piece of paper which group you are.) Also use the activity template to record how you might use the resource following the workshop.
=  Making a plan for the use of the resource =
{{activity|wcd|What did you find?|30}} We now discuss what you found. You should now have a good overview of the OER4Schools resource. The OER4Schools programme is a complete programme, but you could also use parts of it. Is there overlap with your own activities? How might you be able to use OER4Schools? Or perhaps there is something that you can contribute?

{{activity|stgw|Browsing the OER4Schools resource.|30}} Now browse the wiki again (http://oer.educ.cam.ac.uk), either exploring further parts of the OER4Schools resource, or exploring the ASKAIDS resource, or the ORBIT projects. Is there anything that takes your interest? As above, as you are browsing make a note of what you find, and consider:
* PMI: What do you think is a plus, what is a minus, what do you find interesting? Why?
* How would you be able to use this resource for your own purposes?
