Dang! Why didn’t I think of this great idea for inspiring confidence in technophobic colleagues?
Disappointed, by Terry Freedman
On 20 September 2018 I started a 7-part series on mistakes I made as an education technology co-ordinator in a school. I think it’s important to ‘fess up to one’s mistakes so that others can learn from them.
The series seemed to be received well, so here is a link to the very first one, from where you will be able to navigate to the others if you so wish. It’s about something I didn’t think of doing, but wish I had.
The idea discussed would have to be modified to work in an online teaching environment, but only slightly. For example, in Zoom you would just need to make your colleague a co-host for one of the lessons. You’ll see what I’m talking about when you read the article. Here’s the link:
