Podcasting is alive and well in Fife - there's a project involving every school and radiowaves so not only should my school be podcasting very soon, but it will be doing so with some decent equipment! Hurrah!

Question for those of experience: my third year blogging attempts have (in my mind) been of mixed standard so far. However, my instinct is not to have a "how to blog" lesson, but to let the kids work it out over time, and to simply structure its use. Am I being too naive?

Prelims coming up - I'm nervous about trying ideas out with S4 at this crucial time. But one thing I am going to try is compiling a glossary by getting 2 classes to collaborate. I'm hoping this will help kids learn, and feel like they've done something useful and cool to help them study.
