Seomra Ranga Wins Edublog Award
Seomra Ranga has won the prestigious Best Individual Blog at the 9th annual international Edublog Awards held online last night. It was a truly unexpected win as I had presumed that the might of the larger US and UK blogs would prevail. There were originally 139 nominations from all over the world.

Again I thought that the greater education communities in the UK and US would easily surpass the votes I could muster from supporters in Ireland. read more…
ICT in the Classroom eBulletin – Issue 7
This is the seventh of David Ganly’s ICT in the Classroom eBulletins. David teaches in Donabate Community College and he says that the eBulletin started off as an idea he had to engage and encourage teachers in his school to use ICT in the classroom. After putting the first edition together he soon realised that it would be more beneficial if he made it open for any teacher to use, so he then decided to circulate it through his email contacts, the CESI list and Edmodo.

Book Review: And the Blood Flowed Green
We really enjoyed this futuristic and funny book.
It’s probably more suitable for boys than girls and those with an interest in space and science-fiction.
The action is fast-paced and the illustrations really add to this.
The plot is forever twisting but there’s lots of humour in them too.
We loved all the different creatures and planets. read more…
