I manage the school network, lead a Technology Planning Team and co-ordinate the integration of technology into the curriculum. I blog at http://www.edubeacon.com
What has been your greatest challenge in the digital rollout?
The lifting of staff technology skills so teachers and support staff can confidently work with the emerging technologies in the classroom.
If your organisation has a website you might like to include this.
I believe their are a number of Web 2.0 technologies that fit very comfortably within the school library. Bloglines, Del.icio.us and Flickr are just three that can be used to enhance resource provision when integrated into the research guides and other scaffolding. Furthermore, in using them ourselves we demonstrate practical applications that students can take away and apply to their own needs.
