Digital Learning Objects

The Internet  is very much part of our daily life these days. Often very contentious, our children are growing up in a world that is online and interactive. Someone who is at the forefront of promoting social software in education is Ewan MacIntosh from Scotland who provides an interesting commentary on the use of social software in his blog .

I like the way Richard Dobson, senior teacher and year 4 teacher in room 7 shows the use of digital learning objects in his blog. See how Richard uses DLO to explain the tides to children as part of their inquiry on the Seashore. Check out their class blog while you are there and see what else they have been up to.
