Hi,
I have used your website with my trainees over the past couple of years and the tutorials you offer really work well. I have not as yet ventured in to the Adobe Flash playground - though that's my own target!
Thanks guys : )

Hi,
As a novice user of ICT I found the information on how to use PowerPoint extremly easy to follow and I am gradually developing my skills.
Thank you.

Hi Johannes and Neal,
I attended your workshop at SHP last year and was very inspired by your message about teaching exam classes. It really does take hard work and imagination to ensure they maintain interest and making it memorable : )
Thank you.

Dear Johannes and Neal,
I got my students to watch your Movie Maker tutorials instead of me instructing them to use it and it worked brilliantly.
We have a lot of staf in my school that are not IT 'experts' so your tutorials and ideas are a godsend!

StaffroomProject.com: contribute and you might get published!
We have recently launched a new website named Staffroomproject.com. The intention is to create an environment where we, the teachers, have the opportunity to gain recognition for our work.
There are too many clichés and misunderstandings surrounding the teaching of exam groups and if education is to be improved then we need to tackle these head on. We are currently writing a book where we explore how we, as a teaching community, can improve the teaching and learning of exam classes. The site has been divided into chapter sections to help clarify and navigate the space - this is our first attempt so if you have any suggestions about alternative chapter titles then let us know.
Our key philosophy behind our book is that exam preparation should not destroy good learning and teaching. The aim is to provide practical examples as well as a rationale for wider use. Therefore, we will post our ideas on this site and you are welcome to download and use them with your exam groups. All we ask is that you add your own comments and ideas so that we can learn from each other and build up models of best practice. Those examples that are added to the final draft will be acknowledged clearly in the book.
