Introductions / Hello Schome community

« on: September 27, 2009, 12:16:50 PM »

HELLO EVERYONE ,

I have just joined this exciting community.

I think, Schome is a great idea for encouraging a National model for the introduction of innovative educational concepts and new technologies that support these concepts through pilot projects in which early adopters develop practical pedagogical applications.

I have found Schome to be an exciting place where teachers and school leaders can see and contribute case studies showing pedagogical advantages of adopting new educational concepts and technologies.

I am a strong believer that only the collaborative work of a range of educationalists and relevant workforce would help us make positive changes and develop innovative educational approaches.

I am a researcher and a practitioner in the field of using ICT in education and I have been working on
a pilot teaching/learning project about using on-line educational forums for enhancing students' learning.
I have been using Moodle VLE to create an on-line ICT CPD course for teachers (topic: “High Interaction, Reflection and Peer Assessment Through On-line Educational Forums").

At the moment, I am researching ideas and projects related to Virtual worlds in education and I will be glad to be involved in Schome discussions and initiatives.

I am so happy that I have found this motivating community where everyone is willing to share, to give feedback and to consider the others' feedback and I am looking forward to working with you.

Best wishes,
Kat
