What is ‘Teaching with ICT’?
By this we mean any classroom/school activity that involves the use of some aspect of information and communications technology – computers, internet, websites, software, digital cameras, movie making, audio, digital music, interactive whiteboards, wikis, blogs, online social networking, and so on. Anything you’re doing that involves one or more of these sorts of tools.
And don’t forget, the winner of this award will receive a fantastic HP 8 Tablet, courtesy of HP.
Thanks for entering and good luck!
