A working relationship with Perth & Kinross Council has already been established in relation to a visit to the Consolarium having already taken place and Perth HS’ involvement in the Winning Game project that we are curently in the process of supporting. Discusions with Jim Scott and Jim Hynd at Perth HS led to a CPD event being held at their school last week for teachers from the school and from local primary schools. A healthy crowd turned up to listen to the arguments for the place of computer gamnes in the classroom and to get their hands on a number of titles that I had brought along. I must say that they were an excellent crowd as not only were they very attentive but they stuck with me as I delivered my first presentation using Keynote for the Mac! What an application that is!
The event proved to be a great success and it even saw a couple of Headteachers chating with me about possibilities for projects in their schools well after 5:30pm! Dedication as Roy Castle used to say.
I never fail to be impressed by the quality of teachers that attend these events and the idea that they bring to the table for possible games based learning initiatives in their particular contexts. Again, I am looking very much forward to supporting as many of these teachers as I can.
