I did an hour (and a bit - I ran out of time as usual) session today at the Faculty of Education at Homerton College, part of the University of Cambridge.
I was invited by Liz Taylor to speak to the ITT Mentors in a session to prepare for next year's cohort in the very nice new building that they have there. You can see a picture of the building here.
I was delivering a session that had been prepared by Rob Chambers, and I then (skilfully) blended in a few other bits and pieces and also made use of John Barlow's excellent guide to setting up a weblog.

If you were present and have found your way here , welcome !
Hope you enjoyed the introduction to terms such as "my favourite price" and "reclaiming your Sundays"

As I said, all the handouts and features can be found on Rob's website which is named below: IGEOG.

It was only after I'd finished that I found out that Rob normally has 2 hours to get through the material - no wonder I thought I rushed things a bit !
Thanks to Val Vannet for the slide above, and for the suggestions that you came up with for how you might use a blog.I recommend you take a look at these 2 excellent resources.
And if you start a blog - let me know !

This purpose built facility occupies the same space as eight football pitches, equivalent to the length of three London Eye’s stacked on top of each other." "The 46,450 square foot Marston Gate Distribution Centre was opened in November 2000 with over 300 people involved in its construction. The centre delivers orders placed at Amazon.co.uk to customers across the country and to more than 200 countries worldwide. In the Distribution Centre there are four different picking levels in the picking tower with
