Communicate, Collaborate and Create

The Australian National Schools Network would like to invite all interested teachers (P-12) to attend our 2 day workshop titled Communicate, Collaborate and Create which allows participants to actively investigate and explore the potential of on-line tools and their capacity to radically change education in the future.

Throughout the hands-on workshop participants will explore and create their own on-line tools including (but not limited to) blogs, wikis and podcasts, within an educational context.  This workshop will challenge teachers thinking about what could happen to education if these tools become mainstream as an integral tool for learning.
