Listening to a blog post, by Terry Freedman
I’ve converted a few more blog posts to audio files. Here they are:
Here’s a different and more engaging way of testing pupils’ knowledge, skills and understanding. This is an updated version of an article I wrote in 2020. This version includes some ChatGPT-generated additions.
This issue of my Computers in Classrooms newsletter, dates from 2001. I am reproducing these newsletters partly in order to make sure that some of the history of using education technology is preserved, and partly because some of it is still relevant. That applies especially to the Tips section.
Many moons ago I started my own podcast. It was called Terry Freedman’s Education Technology podcast, and it consisted of useful hints and tips for teachers of Computing and related subjects. I have to say that I found it hard going.
Yesterday I published a blog post entitled Books of 2020, a list of the books I’ve (mostly) read in 2020. Well, it’s a bit of a long read at around 4,000 words, so I’ve created an audio version of it as well.
Good news for readers of this blog who prefer to listen to articles rather than read them. I’ve created audio versions of some more blog posts.
UPDATED! Do we really want incompetent central administrations getting directly involved in schools’ ed tech?
Will Artificial Intelligence help to transform education?
Well, this is very timely. On 12 October 2018 I wrote an article stating that I have grave doubts about governments getting involved in ed tech initiatives because, somehow, they usually mess them up, or at least the initiatives don’t work. Yet now there’s a report calling for more government involvement in ed tech. No thanks!
For more than 30 years, London has hosted the Bett show, a mega education technology exhibition/conference. Will it go ahead in 2012?
