#Finito!

Yay!!!! I made it!!!
It's been an interesting journey, a real struggle at times and very exciting at others.  I've learnt so much about what's available to take advantage of. One of the downs was having to have so many usernames and passwords, I thought I was going to have a brain meltdown a one stage, J
It will be fun to be able to put some it into action.
Thank you again for the opportunity to stretch the mind and explore again, and for all of you encouragement along the way.

Kind Regards
Elaine

#22 Audiobooks and #23 Downloadable Media

I think anyone who is able to can read, can use these books,
Probably those who are sight impaired would make the most of audio books. Ebooks are great when wanting a book that is out of print also if you have limited storage area.
I have used ebooks before and yes I can see the potential for ebooks in the library, but I still prefer to have the book in my hands, something about the feel of the pages.

#21 Youtube and Teachertube



Wow I found this video on You Tube to do with scrapbooking, which I have been doing since I was 11yrs old (only a year or 2 ago!!!) Will definitely using this again.

#20 Podcasts

Up until now, I have heard of podcasts but I’ve never used or had much to do with them. I can see how they could be a great asset to the education field. I’d probably be too easily distracted unless I was listening whilst travelling somewhere or listening when doing the housework. :)
I’m sure students would enjoy putting their own podcasts together and in that way may hold their attention and take in what they were being taught.

#19 Rollyo

Not too bad, it appears to be a very good tool for teachers to use to aid their students in obtaining useful information where they may be a little stuck.

#18 Wikis

For a class project every student can contribute to web based projects and conference ideas can be easily shared, changed and added too.
