EDtalks
forwarded from an email sent to Maureen today from
http://edtalks.org/
As the new year begins we are planning the next few months here at EDtalks. We are endeavouring to ensure that the video clips are relevant to teachers and schools; issues, innovations, research and talks that can be used to start group discussions, or maybe just provide you with new ideas or perhaps contact people. We welcome your suggestions for interviews or conversations that meet your needs. As well as the two or three clips regularly uploaded each week we will be at the New Zealand ICTPD conference, Learning@School (http://learningatschool.org.nz/) in February, where we intend to record a large number of participants and presenters in EDTalks conversations. These will appear over the first half of 2009. A note about quality - the EDtalks video clips are recorded in HD and are then converted automatically to flash when uploaded to the website. You are free to download them as MP4 files onto your hard drive, or subscribe through iTunes and view them that way. In both cases the video quality will be better than using the player on the website. All the best for 2009 from the EDTalks team.

Happy Christmas
We wish you all a very happy Christmas and hope you get the break you need and deserve at this time of the year.
PD for for 2009
Letters have been sent to all centres and organisations who applied to the University of Auckland for Kei Tua o te Pae Professional Learning programmes for 2009.
As usual we recieved far more applications than we had places for. This has meant that some of you will have been disappointed. We regret that even prioritising centres without prior Ktotp Professional Development did not mean that everyone who needed this was able to find a place.
We will be advertising in Term 1 for our one day seminar which is always a popular option.
Although 2009 is the last year for the Kei Tua o te Pae professional Development contract, we are certain that some form of support around assessment and planning will still exist in 2010 and beyond.
We look forward to another year of challenge and innovation as we all continue on our assessment journeys. (There's that 'J' word again!)
