OER4Schools/ICT/Consolidation 2
ICT practice (20 min): consolidating what you have learnt so far. Like last time, review the previous sessions. You have learnt about netbook use, about slideshows (in a browser and in OpenOffice), as well as about finding images, and GeoGebra. In this session you can now consolidate some of these skills. Work in pairs, on a topic of your choice. Make sure that you work towards activities that you can also try in the classroom.
Again, judge how many new things you can introduce. If the group you are working with have so far mastered the ICT tasks easily, you could just move on to Geogebra or do some mind mapping. However, if the group you are working with has been struggling, make sure that they understand the basic. You could pair teachers who are more advanced in their ICT use with teachers who are less advanced.
In the next session we will introduce Geogebra, so make sure that those teachers who need to catch up have got time to do so. As we mentioned in the section on how to use this resource, we introduce a few new ICTs in each unit. Participants should continue using the tool that they have learnt, and so participants should continue doing typing practice, using images and slideshows with OpenOffice Impress in their lessons.
