To date n n n n § § PGCE students from 4 HEIs have reviewed several hundred sites and, for appropriate ones, have completed a standard pro-forma. Tutors from the institutions are currently categorizing the reviewed sites and constructing a web site that contains: A site map; Guidelines for new users of the Internet; Teaching and learning with the Internet, including sample lessons; Generic tools (such as Hot Potatoes and Puzzlemaker); Subject resources – a catalogue of vetted sites to be categorized by Key Stage and National Curriculum area; Some sample lessons have been identified; Workshops for PGCE student and tutors have been arranged for the ASE conference in January.
Future plans n n n Further research into PGCE students’ use of the Internet; Continued development of the web site; Use and evaluation of the developing web site by students.
