      A few show-off gizmos; e.g. data-logging; remote control vehicles/robots/buzzers and lights!

These are 10 ICT items I would like to use in my classroom. They are in no particular preference; some of the items I am already using and others are merely a pipe-dream. In most cases, the list includes hardware items, but not exclusively.

1.   A social media output channel to connect with students, parents and fellow classrooms outside your 4 walls …

3.   USB or Wifi access for document sharing and device connectivity. Again, rewind just 7 or 8 years ago …

3.   A projector with interactive whiteboard functionality or television screen connectivity.

5.   A presentation clicker  classroom mobility. The best one I’ve found is  which I use for keynotes.

6.   A visualiser or doLogitforechcument camera for displaying student work, or presenting live feedback.

7.   Tablet devices for teacher and student e.g. iPad and not necessarily 1:1 (Listen to the research).
