David Baker from the East Dunbartonshire Glow Team contacted me today to let me know about a fantastic use of Glow that has been happening in his authority.

“Pupils in several East Dunbartonshire schools recently had the privilege of interviewing Molly Brown, one of the most famous survivors of the sinking of the Titanic.

Thanks to the wonders of Glow Meet, the pupils were able to ask Molly Brown (aka Susan Morrison, a teacher at Gartconner Primary School, Kirkintilloch) about her time on the Titanic and how she coped with the tragic events.

The idea was originally put forward by Susan as a way of enhancing the Joining the Learning topic her class were studying. Feedback from all those who took part has been very positive and is a “Glowing” endorsement of using ICT in this way.

We look forward to using Glow in further, new and innovative ways in the months to come.”

So Glow can even help you see dead people…kind of
