Workshop+2

Workshop 2 Presentations:

**Questioning: Our most important cognitive tool. ** Trevor Bond

**Workshop Outline: ** We will examine this claim and the practical implications for the classroom. This interactive session will challenge your thinking and practice. We will look at practical strategies that can be used to make a real difference for our students.

**Presenter Background: ** Trevor has used computers in his classroom as a tool to enhance learning ever since he managed to get his hands on his first computer, the very powerful Commodore 64, in 1984. He spent 2 years as ICT adviser with School Support Services (University of Waikato) and has been co-director of 1 ICTPD cluster, has facilitated for 3 clusters and worked in some capacity with about 12 ICT PD clusters. Though he sees ICT as providing very powerful tools for the effective teacher, he firmly believes that the real magic comes from how the teacher utilises the tools and supports students in using the tools for learning.

**Photography-“Communicating Powerfully with Photography” ** Stuart Hale

**Workshop Outline: ** <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Photography is the only communication media that goes across all cultures, languages, age groups and levels of literacy! In the past digital photography workshops have covered the capture and editing process only. This workshop will cover the important aspects of how to communicate with photography in a powerful but simple way and will examine such things as the composition of photographs with the rule of thirds being covered. The workshop will look at content in terms of people, light, lines and colour. Emphasis will be placed on how to take "control" of the camera and be creative with the features it offers - such as taking control of focus and light settings, coping with background light, low light and taking amazing macro pictures.

It is brimming with the latest software available to teachers and schools. Come and have a tour of the site, review some software you are familiar with, find some you’ve only heard about. Join the wiki community and have your say. Share your ideas and grab some thoughts and suggestions from others. <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #4f81bd; display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; font-size: 13px; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: auto;">Presenter Background: <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; text-align: left; text-decoration: none;">Simon Evans is the project facilitator for Software for Learning <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; text-align: left;">__@http://softwareforlearning.tki.org.nz/__ <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; display: block; font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; text-align: left; text-decoration: none;">initiative.
