In each video is presented way of work in someones school. Also we can listen about this schools ICT infrastructure. 
I carefully watched all 4 videos and the basic thing we all need to start with is types of networks, systems and devices we use. Only if we are familiar with this basic things we can manage solving problems in ICT  infrastructure or, at the end of circle in classroom with our students. 

Today we were able to join webinar where we heard all about networking principals. Mr. Khayat gave us good guideline for the next steps and easier solving of problems and making a better developmental plan for our schools. 

My developmental plan will be developing in next box step by step, please be free to tell me what you think, look forward on your comments and opinions. ]]> 2018-01-17 19:45:38 UTC https://padlet.com/smiley_hehe/x8gm4kknq9h7/wish/222213677 Modul 2 - Wireless networking and bring your own device. smiley_hehe https://padlet.com/smiley_hehe/x8gm4kknq9h7/wish/225207857 In this module we heard some experiences about wireless networking and how it can work if students bring their own devices for school work in schools. We improved and deepened our knowledge and understanding of wireless networking principles (network design, sizing, and coverage security). We heared about the general principles behind BYOD, the challenges, and the technical solutions. Also we learned  from some colleagues how they introduced the BYOD approach, the difficulties they faced, and the solutions they came up with.

It is a good idea to post BYOD rules in the classroom to act as a reminder.]]> 2018-01-26 19:45:53 UTC https://padlet.com/smiley_hehe/x8gm4kknq9h7/wish/225213288 Module 3 - Moving to the Cloud smiley_hehe https://padlet.com/smiley_hehe/x8gm4kknq9h7/wish/228563516 In this module, we were:

  • Improve and deepen our knowledge and understanding of Cloud principles, opportunities and pitfalls, models, and platforms
  • Hear from colleagues why and how they decided to move to the Cloud
  • Continued with the elaboration of a first draft of an ICT development plan for our school
In our school we use Office 365 for comunication between teachers. Our students are not allowed tu use it yet. 
In my plan for this course is preparing students for learning about Internet safety and using Internet in school, so they can be prepare for using any kind of cloud and networking.
