School Matters Magazine (by the WA Department of Education)
This new edition of School Matters talks about technology in teaching ^_^ ! There are many issues related to what we are talking about in our ICT workshops this semester; for instance, How technology is changing our classroom, Managing social networking, the technology tide/boom in classrooms, etc. It also has a definition list of the KEY Tech terms, like Blogs, E-book, Moodle and Wiki.
I thought this is a pretty good edition - something you can relate to when reading :) So if you haven't got your hands on a hard printed copy (it goes around in the GSE building), check it out online \(^o^)/
Enjoy!

David Crystal on It's Only a Theory S01E02
This video's so good I have to save it somewhere! I even made a friend who studies nothing about language to watch it today - and he found it great :) I am not quite sure about his statement "the earlier starting to use a mobile phone, the faster/better the language development" - have to read a bit more on that to see whether there are evidence supporting the statement. It seems a little bit unrealistic for me. On the other hand, I don't really think texting has made people less punctual these days - it's just what happens in the society. Even if text was never ever invented, people can still call up when they are going to be late - not necessarily the fault of text messages.
