Teacher Laptop initiative
During this session we will give you an update on the latest status of the Teacher Laptop Initiative. We will endeavour to bring a representative of the ELRC to the session but failing this we will report on the progress. SchoolNet SA is a partner in the initiative and in addition to providing updates we can let you know what the professional development model is that we have on offer.

Using Moodle to Manage Mobile Mathematics Learning (1 hour)
The focus of this presentation is to showcase how mobile technology can be utilised for Mathematics learning and how a Moodle learning management system can help track learner progress and identify topics where learners might need assistance. SchoolNet
SA is participating in a project that uses an online forum to engage learners in Maths learning. The Grade 10 Maths curriculum is available via a service on MXIT. Learners are able to use their cell phones to work through practice examples and test questions
in the various Maths topics in the curriculum. A teacher can access the service using Moodle to manage learner progress in any/all of the topics and draw summary reports on each learner.
