Tim and Sarah will present some accessible tools and ideas for raising the levels of creativity, writing, speaking and listening among children of all ages. They will describe the powerful effect of using games, Web2 tools, software, handheld devices and more to model a way of teaching that focuses on quality learning, rather than the latest gadget.

Participants will investigate how virtual worlds, with their stunning landscapes, peaceful characters and realistic challenges, can be used across subject areas, abilities and age ranges to deliver remarkable effects. Come prepared to be inspired and leave with many practical ideas to apply back in the classroom.

Devices include tablets (primarily iPad) smart phones and laptops
