First Blog of the year!

It's very scary doing my first blog but I need to overcome this intimidation for when I start teaching. I've read lots of articles recently about how teachers are nervous with ICT which is leading to many schools and therefore children falling behind in their ICT knowledge. Teaching the curriculum seems to be fairly successful but as soon as they have to come out of this comfortable arena, people start falling back.
From what I have seen so far, ICT can be so useful across the curriculum for example, incorporating play within a subject like Maths, using online games or enabling children to be more creative in Art or English using different programmes for designing posters or making photo collages. So there is lots to learn and explore over the next few months which hopefully will be just as exciting as it is scary!
