Enterprising attitudes and web 2.0

Inspiration: Cookstown Primary, Northern Ireland

Inspiration: Room 13

Ownership of learning

“It would be really good to be in charge of our own education, as we have always had to go with adults thinking, and they don’t do the work that they make the rules for. This does NOT mean we do not want to learn, quite the opposite, we would like to find a way which would make learning better and we think we should be listened to a lot more.”

Danielle Souness, Room 13

Inspiration: Wendy Ewald (Literacy Through Photography)

to deliver CFE• Teachers pushed towards BIG projects• Parents ‘don’t get it.’• Focus only on creating films – not on

analysing or exploring
