I was asked by Shaun Allison a while ago if I would be able to join him at the Teachmeet at his school. It’s not exactly round the corner at 183 miles away. My friend and ex-colleague David Didau who lives not too far from me managed to get across…
Sketch noting is all the rage. I don’t profess to be any good at it and the proof will definitely be in the pudding when you see some of my designs below but I’m learning! There are a variety of apps available that can help you and four of the most…
I worry for a number of reasons. Why I worry Teachers blog and don’t think about their audience and say things that show poor judgement. Teachers blog and use images that aren’t licensed for reuse and think it’s ok because they’ve used ‘Google Images’. Teachers blog and use images which aren’t…
I’m as guilty as the next person for singing the praises of Puentedura’s SAMR model. I’ve blogged about it many many times, it’s included in my book ‘Perfect ICT Every Lesson’ too. Quite rightly so I believe. The problem I have with it, and others find this problem too, is…

TeachMeet London was a superb night. When I was asked to be involved, I was very happy to do so. Having organised a fair few and supported many others, I knew I’d be able to help out and hopefully add some value. The record of the night is immense. It…
I was contacted by MyiStick following my presentation at Liz Allton’s TeachMeet Solihull and a recommendation from Liz. Further to a conversation, they said they’d be happy to send me one of their iSticks. Now, if you haven’t heard of them, an iStick is a two way lightning to USB memory…
