The above wordle was created at a great space called 'wordle'. A wordle is a word cloud and was created by a whizz at IBM, Jonathan Feinburg. I can already see benefits for spelling and vocabulary as it gives students a different visual handle for words. Check it out yourself: [|Wordle] =Improving Literacy with ICT -=

Hi All, http://www.google.com/literacy/projects.html

here we go again...fingers crossed!

Hi all - have also discovered a free social network called ning and have created a web page which could display the final draft of information, tools and research we want to report on. We can still use this wiki to discuss ideas, add links, etc and then make final group decisions. This way we are also experimenting with a variety of technology in completing the task. See what you think - [|Improving Literacy with ICT - a collaborative task] Cheers, Victoria

//25th April - Some Ideas

Hi all,

I thought one section we could add to the social network was a readings review section of Literacy and ICT. One role we could all take on is to find a research paper or reading within this field that you find interesting and complete a post similar to what we were doing on DSO. In this way we could all have contributed information in narrowing down this broad scope. Does this sound okay with all? I will add this section to the Literacy and ICT network under the Literature Review tab and you can add there too.

I have added some links to papers I thought we could use: Don't feel limited to these - they are just a start!
