From the technology nervous practitioner to the experienced ICT pro - this book has it all. It provides creative uses for ICT across all areas of the curriculum as well as general tips and advice. This is a book that can be 'dipped' into or read all the way through but one thing is for certain you will take away more than one tip/tool/technique to use. * Dawn Hallybone, Deputy Headteacher *
A must for every primary classroom! Cleverly written, Jon Audain is there to hold your hand when you need it making new concepts and technologies less intimidating, he is also there to give you a push, motivate and challenge even the most confident ICT users.
