BL (3) - Created a delicious account. Found this very useful as I often find that I would use a webpage and forget what it was or not be able to find it again. I also found that I was always saving the webpages in different places and couldn't remember where or what the webpage is about. This would deter me from using them as I found it time consuming trying to find them again. This account is going to make it all so much easier to manage and keep track of everything I use/can use and save time.
Theories: Associative, Constructive (Individual and Social), Situative. Discussed and learnt about the theories and related theories to lesson activities.

BL (2) - Activity 3: making text easier to read! I feel this would benefit all of my learners as they can customise their own work on screen to what they find the easiest to read and work with. I feel this would speed up the time taken for my students when working on computers as for many of them the difficulty is distinguishing one word or line from the next, I think it would also save on paper resources and the time taken to prepare them on my part.

Activity 4: learnt how to put hyperlinks on a powerpoint slide
Blended Learning (1) - I got some very useful ideas from my peers on the different uses of ICT in the classroom. I will try to set up a facebook group for my current group of students so I can send them updates, also for them to update on a daily basis for students that may be absent and to help them when filling in their portfolios.
