I think that as they're quite young they don't seem to really relate to the wide audience that they are reaching. However, having someone they know, who's no longer in the school comment really motivated them! It was much appreciated by me as well as I think a few of them are ready to give up on their wikis due to all the problems we're having. I'm still trying to sort it out!

I really appreciate the comments, but I'm actually on secondment at present - so I'm not a classroom teacher (at least not for the next 20 months or so). I'm being paid - I hope :) - to spread the word about how I've used ICT to improve learning and teaching with classes. I'm finding it difficult because I'm not a natural presenter. I would prefer to write it all down instead and have them read it, but I know that's not the way so I'll keep working on those presentation skills ...... comments like yours really help build my confidence :) Hello Pam,

I think your obvious passion for education and ICT will far outweigh your perceived lack of presentation skills. How lucky your school is to have someone with such dedication and enthusiasm (and energy by the sound of it!). Glad to see you have something else on the menu though other than work ;-) Hi Margaret
