Intensive ICT seminars to help you introduce innovative software into your classroom

• Are you a classroom teacher looking for some great software?

• Are you a classroom teacher searching for some relevant professional development to give you some confidence to incorporate ICT into your lessons?

• Would you like some new ideas and tools to help you use some of the most innovative software around that work well on an IWB?

Digital technology has a key role to play in today’s classrooms to support teaching and learning. Teachers need the confidence to introduce a wide range of tools to their portfolio.

This is why IWBNet has developed a range of Powerful Software Seminars to introduce some great resources to you in a hands-on environment.

Detail

Bring your own laptop to the session and we will give you your own licensed copy of the software to load on to your laptop. Your presenter will then take you through a road map of the software and demonstrate some ways that you can use the application in your classroom. You will then develop a lesson or resource of your own and take away printed instructions and a CD of resources.

When you enrol in one of the Powerful Software Seminars you will get:

• A licensed copy of the software for your own use

• Printed notes and a road map on how to navigate the software

• A CD Rom that will include prepared samples and ideas for your use back at school

• Morning or Afternoon Tea (lunch is not provided)

• Three months post seminar support

Seminars

Choose from the following Powerful Software Seminars:

In PSS Seminar 1 (Freeware use in your classroom – suitable for K - 10) we will demonstrate three very powerful software applications that can be used in K – 10 classrooms. Using your own copy of the CD you will install the software and begin to create a lesson to use back at school. Your presenter will also show you sample lessons that have been created using the application/s that you can use back at school or re-purpose them for your own use. The CD will contain instructions on how to use the software, instructions to create the sample lessons as well as the sample lesson files. The applications we will use in this session are Pivot StickFigure Animator, All Things Google and Phun. (Please note: that depending on time, delegate numbers and experience the combination of lessons demonstrated may differ.)

In PSS Seminar 2 (Kid Pix Deluxe 4 in your Classroom – suitable for K - 8) you will receive your own licensed copy (CD) of Kid Pix Deluxe 4 which you will install on your laptop at the beginning of the session. Your presenter will then take you through a “view” of the software to demonstrate the features of the application using classroom examples. You will be shown a selection of sample lessons to provide you with some ideas on how to use the software in your classroom. You will then begin to build a lesson from scratch that you can use or you can re-purpose one of the sample lessons provided on the CD. The CD will contain instructions on how to use the software, instructions to create the sample lessons as well as the sample lesson files. (Please note: that depending on time, delegate numbers and experience the combination of lessons demonstrated may differ.)
