Using Edmodo: Living Schools Lab Good Practice
Video Overview
Interview with Teachers about Living Schools Lab and how it has supported schools sharing their use of ICT. It promotes schools supporting other schools implementing and introducing ICT through Skype meetings, webinars. It has inspired other teachers to include technology in their education as they have a support system in place.
Description
Schools explain how Living Schools Lab has helped them use ICT in their schools. Teachers explain how this shared practice with other schools has helped them set up different programmes. Schools use Edmodo and hold webinars, Skype calls and email each other to aid in the setting up process. Schools act as mentors to other teachers. They use a small step approach to introduce ICT and help teachers move away from using ICT for teaching to using ICT for learning.
