As a Professional Learning and Development Facilitator Fiona collaborates with educators to successfully inquire into their practice to strengthen the capability of teachers, leaders and schools to improve learning outcomes for all students. Fiona is particularly interested in how web technologies can create new learning and teaching possibilities.
Fiona has a Master of Education (First Class Honours) including postgraduate specialisation in e-Education and educational leadership. She has contributed nationally to Ministry of Education e-learning initiatives and recently became a Google Certified Teacher.
From February 2012 Fiona will join a team of facilitators who are supporting schools through The Manaiakalani Education Trust.
Fiona is also a fan of EduCampNZ un-conferences and uses her blog, VirtualNorth and Twitter, to share and connect with other learners.

My Projects
EduCampNZ: user generated 'unconference' or Barcamp. The focus is on e-learning and education, sharing ideas we've discovered and learning from each other. Everyone is invited to participate in some way.The purpose of EduCampNZ is to both learn and contribute. It is based on the Open Space Meeting Format. No real agenda is set and it will be up to participants to determine the focus for the sessions, grow their learning, network and have fun!

My Reflections
Adding widgets to these pages is not as easy as copy and pasting some html. Anyone out there want to add a widget to my page so I can see how it's done feel free. For example a widget for My Flickr (see link above) many thanks.
Also tried to embed a recording of my mihi...I ended up going around in circle so linked to the file...any help would be appreciated, searched for instructions but no luck.

I'm not sure what widgets can be used - certainly I haven't yet found a way to add things like we can over at wikispaces. Will keep you posted on what I find.
