With over 10 years experience as an ICT teacher, I have taught and learnt how to effectively develop student ICT skills in the classroom. I facilitate teacher workshops and online courses that deliver practical and immediately actionable advice on teachers from early childhood to Primary can develop student ICT capability in their lessons. My website hosts a number of articles and teacher resources that expand on my courses and further develop your teacher professional learning in these areas. I will continue to create more courses to ensure that our students are prepared for the 21st century.
