Using iWeb 2.0 [iLife ’08] to Enhance Teaching & Learning

 

This webpage shows the continued my use of iWeb
in a number of teaching and learning situations with
I’ve conducted during 2008.
I’ve now made the upgrade to iWeb 2.0 [part of iLife ‘08]


iWeb was used in a number of projects with students from the middle years [students in years 5-8 of schooling] & teachers

  1. Big Wrapper ’08 [Years 5-8]
    This was an environmental activity conducted over two days from three schools in the Environmental Neighbourhood Cluster.
    The focus questions were:

    • What are the causes of inequalities of food distribution and consumption in the world?
    • What are the environmental issues about food packaging?
    • What are the health issues related to the higher levels of food consumption and food processing in Western Society?

    Three schools were involved, each making a website
