Wisdom & Creative Ideas Sought

We might be running a type of One Day ICT school next year. It could have multi talented multi-level kids (year 2-6). We want the kids to operate in an online environment and have some hardware available to them in an ongoing way so the learning carries on outside the "one day".

Could I base this totally in Mahara? I want to avoid Moodles if possible. Ideas and advice?

Does anyone know of the best way to either buy a class set of netbooks or lease at a reasonable cost? Who could I approach to offset the costs?

  2. My nephew went to e-time in Christchurch and really loved it. This is the link to their website http://www.etime.co.nz/WebSpace/20/
    I could talk to him and ask him what sort of stuff they did.

  3. Thanks Karla. I like the set up of their page with blog links etc. I could make one like that - a school within a school.

  4. Louise, is your nephew's course an ICT based course or classroom based? Do they need a laptop to attend?
