Sharing your school calendar
Woohoo, Since I got upgraded on PrimaryEmail I had access to this new calendar sharing thing. Currently I’m sharing my free/busy but you can share anything you want. It works really well!
To enable sharing your calendar:
Log in to your Primary Email or School Email account via the website.
Click Calendar
Click Share
Click Publish this calendar to the internet
Change your settings and then get the Link for viewing calendar in a Web browser
If you want to embed your calendar copy the Link for viewing calendar in a Web browser URL and embed it in an iframe, it will look something like this:
<iframe src="http://exchange.schoolemail.co.uk/owa/calendar/John@primaryt.co.uk/Calendar/calendar.html" width=600 height=600></iframe>
NEW FEATURE: Online Pictogram / Pictograph creator
A few days ago Matt Lovegrove mentioned he didn’t have any simple pictogram (aka pictogramme / pictograph) software for his network so we went about making him something up!
We decided to make a simple, free, online pictogram creator. This gives you the freedom to use the tool however you see fit!
Key Features:
- Images automatically load
- Up to 5000 items/rows
- We still have no ideas if this is supposed to be called a pictogramme, pictogrammen, pictogram or pictograph creator..
- No need to download/install any software
- Completely free
- Super awesome.
- Open source
ICT teaching and learning framework
Matt Lovegrove and others have done a fantastic job of writing up an ICT teaching and learning framework. I added some minor bits and suggestions and here is an updated version:
I want to commend Matt Lovegrove, Steve Greenfield, David Sheppard and Claire Waite for their efforts in creating this very clear and useful document. I also want to commend them for releasing the document under a creative commons license. What a great example of teachers willing to share and work in collaboration with other teachers and educators!
QR codes in Primary Education
This is a presentation by Joe Dale on Exploring the educational potential of qr codes
He includes a link to the QR code voting website I have been working on called Qwikvotes.
Thanks Joe, great job 🙂
