About
I am an educational technologist, living in Johannesburg/Hogsback, South Africa.
My passion is getting teachers to use ICT/social media for teaching and learning. I do training (ICT/social media/maths literacy 4 teachers) and develop materials for schools, organisations, the Department of Education and for general use online.
I maintain, facilitate and are involved in various online communities of practice. I also indulge in a few blogs and wikis. If you want to join me in a few of my spaces, feel free….

Hi
I phoned you yesterday. You suggested iGoogole which I have been using. It is very interesting. I can not believe as an IT director of so many years. I did not know about it.
You indicated that you would send me more information. I hope this the best way to communicate with you.
Dear Maggie. I was so impressed with your twitter presentation at the ICT HED conference a few weeks back. I’m the Operations Director for the Open Learning Group. We are very involved in providing logistical, admin and IT support to the North-West University. I’m currently working on a project with Prof Tommy du Plessis (Director of the Potchefstroom Business School of NWU). We are planning a week in May/June where we will be arranging speakers to provide workshops on a range of topics. I would dearly love to get into contact with you if you would consider anything like this. We’re looking at doing this in Windhoek and possibly Swakopmund as well. If you would like to consider something like this, please could you get in touch with me by email. I’m still very much a notive on Twitter – sorry. Regards Linda.
