By the end of Term one we had uniform class pages set up by each teacher in a session led by the LTs. These can be viewed by the public. We created these using PowerPoint. They will be updated each year.

-After school workshops by the LTs supported staff in this.

Once the students access their class pages they know that they can click on these different sub pages or linked images for the set activities.

E portfoliosFollowing a meeting with Kat Story from Ultranet we set up 2 control classes to trial the use of the e portfolios on our uSpace.

To do this we had to set a task for the children to complete on their portfolios. They comment against the WALT and WILF on the samples of work they upload.

The format of our e portfolios allow for other students to leave constructive peer observations and comments.

We have also set up our own teacher e portfolios where we can record and gather evidence for the RTCs.

+Following a National Library Course on online library spaces in March, our Librarian and LTR have set up an effective and active online space for students to access homework/ research links and the library catalogue in and out of school. We now have a Library blog to promote new books and library events. Our aim was to make these active spaces. To give incentive we decided any students who left comments on any blog posts should go into a draw at the end of each month. The traffic on the blog has been increasing steadily ever sincehttp://plateaulibrary.blogspot.com/

An Online Library space for our Students

+ IWB PDDuring the last two terms we have had 5 PD sessions on effective use of our Promethean boards. Other schools in our area and cluster have been attending these courses.

Active boards are now being used independently by students during group rotations at maths and reading time.

their IWB to display video and images to enhance writing.

The teachers at Plateau have had a busy year of many challenging and exciting ICT new learnings and tasks.Their increasing confidence and willingness to venture outside the comfort zone has reflected in our students use, familiarity and integration of ICT into everyday learning and activities.
