ICT Frames for Starters and Research Activities
These frames can be easily adapted for use in a wide variety of teaching and learning activities.
Teachers might choose to use these frames in a variety of ways:
- Projected onto a whiteboard
- As the basis of hands-on ICT sessions with pupils
- Printed off as pupil prompt sheets
Adopt and Adapt
The model used for all of our activities has been:
- Start with a good idea (adopt)
- Consider how the idea can be adapted
- Provide blank frames for teachers to use
To use any of these activities you will need:
- To collect together a folder of digital images, either collected from the web, from scanned images or from digital photographs
- To be able to insert a picture into the software (these examples are provided in PowerPoint and Word format – although it would also work with IWB software)
