Plan a pedagogical project where the teachers and the pupils use
netbooks in an educational context
• Different possibilities:

pupils use netbooks across subjects

• A variety of contexts:
– use netbooks in school vs. at home
– individual use of netbooks vs. collaborative use
What is expected from teachers?

• Creating new pedagogical resources (e.g. multimedia material, lesson plans)
• To connect to the school Virtual Learning Environment• To work with Interactive White Boards• To communicate between schools and parents
