Interview with Pene Abbie

Pene Abbie is the principal at Clarkville school.  She has come to Ulearn many times before and this year she hopes to learn more about ICT in the classroom.Her role at Ulearn is as a  presenter and she is going to be talking about children leading their learning using the CHILL factor.

She enjoyed the Keynote speaker Gary Stager because he talked about ideas that were practical and she thinks that she will be able to implement them in her school.

The first breakout that she attended was called “Got to know when to hold em.’” This was presented by David Anderson. When she gets back to Clarkville school she would like to make sure that all the teachers have the knowledge to help the kids complete ten things in ICT. These things include writing a novel, building a blockbuster, and robotics. She intends to do this by getting lots of professional development for the teachers and it might end up with the children teaching the teachers.
