Activity

 

Task 8

  1. Using the list of hypertext links, devise a useful way of organising or categorising them.
    What headings would be useful to you?

    You might consider functions, potential usefulness, topics ...

  2. Copy the table using your organisation strategy and use it as the basis of your personal favourite bookmarks.

 

Discussion 

 

Can useful links be built into an ‘intranet’ for departmental use? How might students share useful information? Can they author their own web pages for internal use?

 

 
 

Task 9

To complete your NOF Training you will finally need to submit an Action Plan and your Portfolio in order to receive your ICT Competency Certificate.
