Summary

Gain practical advice on using ICT to improve presentation skills in the classroom. This video follows Year 1 primary teacher Lise Bosher as she gets advice from a fellow teacher.

Teachers present to pupils every day, yet many are still nervous about incorporating ICT into their presentations.

Lise meets Joe Dale, a middle-school French teacher who already uses ICT to enhance his own presentations. After observing one of Joe's classes, Lise returns to her own classroom to start using the presentation technology she has learned.

This was previously part of the enhanced video player, which is now no longer available.
