Tony Ryan is an Australian learning consultant who is obsessed with two things:
1. His own learning; and
2. Everyone else's learning
My name is Cindy Barnsley and I teach English and Modern History at a boys’ high school in regional Australia. This blog is a place for me to reflect on my efforts to effectively use technology to enhance students’ learning, with a focus on blogs, wikis and digital storytelling.
The main purpose of Digital Chalkie is to provide an open hub for Oceania educators using ICT to engage in dialogue that may help facilitate the best educational outcomes for their students. The domain name uses the word ‘chalkie’ as an affectionately defunct Aussie term for teachers. The goal is to establish a hub/magazine/think-tank in the form of a group blog for teachers to support each other and to collaborate in the use of ICT.
Digital Chalkie was founded by in early 2006 Paul Reid, Brad Hicks, Reg Whitely, Bryn Jones, Mark Weber, Steve Adcock, Kim Flintoff and Rod Blitvich. As an open group-blog Digital Chalkie aims to allow geographically disparate Oceania educators to collaborate with the world beyond the walled-gardens of their closed email listserves. This concept may even apply to our own individual blogs.
