Name: Fiona Beal

Town: Fish Hoek

Role: ex-teacher – Fish Hoek Primary School,

Now working for SchoolNetSA with teachers

Make a collaborative e-book

You can do this between classes, schools or even between countries!

1) Use iEtherpad Pad to create

circle stories http://ietherpad.com

You are given a

code.

2) Send these codes to the next

person or school to continue the

story in the same ‘pad’

3) When the stories come back the

original learner edits it, adds illustrations

and puts it into PowerPoint

Possible programmes to use for

illustrations:

• Draw own illustrations in MS Paint.

• Use Bing images for pictures

• Use any illustration programme you might have

• We used Storymaker 2

4) Each learners reads his/her story into

their PowerPoint

5) Upload these Powerpoint stories to a

free site called Slideboom.com. It will

give you an ‘embed’ code

6) You could embed these

stories in your classroom blog!

7) This is what the story could sound and look like....
