I began to get a little worried when i read a friends post about a You-Tube video called Telling the New Story. She was commenting on a US primary school class who communicate with ’schools around the world, learning about other cultures and languages from students their own age.’ And was was like uh oh, there goes my whole idea for my LAMS task. So i watched the video and soon discovered all was under-control. The clip was based upon an amature computer user teacher and her use of computer based technology in the classroom. Although it was a poorly made and edited video i enjoyed the different perspectives of teacher, parent and student and their views on online technology in the classroom. Overall, it was actually great to watch and as another viewer noted on You-tube, it clearly expressed that ”teacher attitude and not skill level is a barrier to using technology with students.” The video certainly hasn’t tainted or hindered my idea for the LAMS task but has enriched it.
