Nice adaptation of ‘Who am I?’ – I’m going to try it out in my next class – and adapt it for others later in the term. Cheers.

Would this be for level 1, or 2? Maybe best to edit the title to state the level.

Comment on A Discourse Approach to Teaching Reading/Writing by Richard Hawking

A couple of points:

If files relating to the presentations were posted more promptly (the day after the presentation), they would arouse more interest from other teachers.

If files were posted by the presenter him/herself, it would remove the barrier of ‘LTD’ between the presenter and other teachers. Other teachers could then use this commenting function to discuss the files, and ask questions to the presenter.

It’s important to keep in mind that the presentations were the results of the labour of the presenter him/herself.

The new design works well when viewed on an iPod Touch!

I wonder though, do we need the tag cloud? Or p’raps it could be at the bottom? It seems to be taking up a lot of valuable real estate now.

PS. On an iPod Touch all PDF and doc files can be read online. The problem is that you can’t download them!
