Mr Robbo PE Geek

At the Primary School ACHPER conference at Flinders Uni I attended a talk by Shane Pill on technologies in PE. He mentioned a guy, Mr Robbo (Jared Robinson), who was a bit of a guru with IT and PE. The link to his site is on this blog under Teacher made Blogs and Websites.

What a great site it is with some really thought provoking posts. I found this great quote directed at those teachers who don't want to change and develop their skills and knowledge as the teaching landscape changes around them. The quote from Jared Robinson below is in relation to Web 2.0 tools and the different ways students are choosing to learn.

 ".....its a teachers role to promote lifelong learning, but isnt it somewhat hypocritical to not expect the same of ourselves".
