Description
The Really Useful ICT Book is a practical and easy-to-use guide to give you all the confidence you need to use ICT really effectively inside and outside the primary classroom. It makes clear how ICT can be taught as a standalone subject, and how it can be used easily and imaginatively to enhance teaching other subjects.
Jam-packed with ideas and templates to save you time, this friendly handbook offers an introduction to:
using ICT inside the classroom - including interactive whiteboards, computer suites, VLEs and e-safety
using ICT outside the classroom - including word processors, laptops, data loggers and digital cameras
when and how to use a wide range of software and hardware - from spreadsheet packages through to digital photography, e-portfolios and software simulation
using ICT in all subject areas
practical suggestions for using ICT in cross-curricular topics
using ICT to develop teacher and pupil creativity
using ICT for assessment and in your professional role.
With an emphasis on developing children's creativity and on progression from Key Stage 1 to Key Stage 2, The Really Useful ICT Book is a comprehensive compendium of advice and inspiration for all training, newly qualified and experienced teachers, as well as those in support roles in primary schools.
