Glad to see the day had an effect on you. Just to let you know. I was in another school observing a science class again. This time the teacher used both Google Video and YouTube to illustrate "diffusion". She was a young teacher obviously comfortable with IT but she still had to "battle" to get her IT people to unblock access to those sites. We need to think of more ways to free teachers that want to use IT and to help those who can't. Shane Hi Feargal. Glad to see the day had an effect on you.
