Another very interesting and thought provoking session at Northern Stage! Thanks!
Some Web 2.0 tools worth sharing include:
Etherpad: can be used for real time collaboration on creative writing
Google Doc's: can be used for student voice, creating online resources such as presentations and tests.
Wallwisher: a place to post online sticky notes! I use it for A4L.
Prezi: online presentation which offers a fantastic alternative to a linear slideshow.
Ted: keynote speeches from national and international conferences- fantastic ideas and concepts covering a range of subject areas.
I have many other tools to share! If you are interested just email me or you can check out some on my blog.

Creative Leadership Proposal
Question: How can I lead (reluctant) staff to embed effective e-learning within their lesons?
Context: I currently run a series of Teaching and E-learning Workshops for all staff, which cover a range of technologies and tools, including, Podcasting, Using Google Docs for Student Voice and Web 2.0 Technologies. Attendance at sessions can range from 10-20 colleagues from a range of subject areas and support staff.
Initial Thoughts: I think that I need to identify the perceived barriers to implementing e-learning in a lesson/scheme of learning. I need to work closely with staff, in a mentoring capacity, and to continue to offer the training sessions which will help to remove the barriers. This will involve managing change and overcoming some teaching "habits". Furthermore, I will work with staff in helping to identify the learning opportunities where e-learning will be effective and add value to the lessson rather than being used as a tool just to "tick a box".
Any ideas?
