==**As we 'cruise' through cyberspace, we stumble upon so many amazing websites. Well... my Favourites menu is so long it's about to boldly go where no man has gone before! **== ==**So... I intend to plunge into the dark recesses of my collection to re-acquaint myself with a number of educator-related sites deemed to be potentially useful, and I will post links to those I feel are worth another look at. **==

=== I may use this application as a platform to re-introduce my new students to digital photography, uploading images, a Web 2 application, saving files and creating a product ( bookmarker, personalised library placeholder or the likes) early in Term 1. Plus, they can share their creations via our class blog. Our computers on wheels (COW) in conjunction with our interactive whiteboard will be invaluable here! Loads of opportunity for collaboration, creative thinking, and problem solving :) ===
