On Thursday afternoon (31st October) at 3.30pm we held a SchoolNet webinar entitled ‘Symbaloo – a great classroom tool for all age groups’’ presented by Fiona Beal. Thank you to all who attended the webinar.

Summary of the webinarFiona says,
”In this webinar we’ll take a look at one of my favourite webtools, Symbaloo, and how it is used in the classroom. (Symbaloo is available on your browser and also as a free iPad and Android app.) It is a great curation/bookmarking tool with a unique, attractive and compact look and feel. I have enjoyed noticing the ways teachers around the world use Symbaloo in their classrooms right from Kindergarden to High School. It has a myriad of uses for any age group.”

The reason for having two sections is that for some reason the sound disappeared and noone could hear so I had to go out of Adobe Connect and come back in again to restore the sound. Because of this I created a screencast video of my presentation and uploaded it to YouTube. You might prefer to watch that instead. Here it is:
