Blog posts September-December 2010

Welcome Mark and Janet and Susanna,

Here is my blog so far and what learning's I've discovered and learnt along my journey so far as a PGCE Student. The posts start at the most recent and work the way back, I've made a conscious decision to vary the posts and not just look from the UCC lectures, but looking from direct experience and looking at what is current and happening in education in general.

I will like to investigate more into ICT and its developments in 2011. I would like to explore the possibilities of using photoshop and other media soft ware with my 4th years this term and will like to learn more in this area.

Here are the list of following posts I've discussed below :
