I recommend Firefox or Chrome as an alternative, and think that once you start using these, you won't want to use Explorer again. It just can't hack the pace any more.

 * What is a web browser?** The [|web browser] is arguably the most important piece of software on your computer. You spend much of your time online inside a browser. When you search, chat, email, shop, bank, read the news and watch videos online, you often do all this using a browser. So you need one that works and doesn't get met with "your browser doesn't support .... that is required to view this site ..." || Use the search terms //Chrome// or //Firefox// and follow the links. ||

February Hui
Steph's story about future problem solving - getting water from the well. The students first thought about the issue creatively and brainstormed ideas. secondly they thought critically to see what could and couldn't work. finally they thought ethically (caring) and looked at the social issues that were involved in the problem (women socialised at the well which they couldn't do by the pump which was male oriented). When all three types of thinking work together, you get 'Complex Thinking'. Now if you relate this to our cycles of planning, gathering data and considering cultural capital and we have a nicely aligned Ka Hikitia model.

Using the Online Resources
At the first lead principal workshop (23rd July in PN) we looked at a couple of Ministry sites to see what was available. Use the Mindmeister mindmap links to have a look through some of these sites that the lead principals thought could be useful to you. Feel free to add any if you find more, but please give us a quick idea of how you see it being used in the table below. Thanks, Heather

These links were sent to me from one of the PN groups.
