EdTechRoundUp Weekly #26 – Jailbreaking iPhones, rolling out Wordpress on a national level, and parental engagement

ETRU WeeklyThis week’s meeting was led by Dai Barnes and Doug Belshaw. Dai began by waxing lyrical about his ‘jailbroken’ iPhone, with others contributing what a wonderful thing it is to be released from the fruit shackles. Our major points for discussion were John Heffernan’s plans to roll out Wordpress Multi-User across schools in Ireland, and engaging parents through the use of technology (mainly VLEs, to be fair…) :-)

Many thanks to Tony Sheppard for grabbing the audio from the FlashMeeting!
