| | | Picasa 3 | | | December 2008 | Not that we are into advertising other company's products and not that Google need advertising.....BUT....schools should be using Picasa 3 - such a simple image management & editing program. It's free and it's good.
Make sure you choose Picasa as your default image viewer when opening image files - it's quick to open and looks fantastic. Your portfolio previews will look even better.
Try the new collage features - make a picture collage or "picture pile" in a few seconds then add it to your FolioMaker portfolio.

| | | Folios International Partner with Lutheran Education | | | November 2007 | Folios International are pleased to announce that we have
partnered with Lutheran Education South Eastern Region
(Vic/Tas/NSW).
Together we are developing "Learning with Purpose" -
a learning and teaching management system.
Learning with Purpose
(LwP) is being developed to provide co-ordination of, and connection between
the component parts of a school’s learning and teaching program. Integral to
LwP is student understanding and ownership of their learning and the capacity
of a school to provide a co-ordinated whole school program which will provide
pathways for individual students.
LwP is supported by a database.
Central to the function of LwP is a unit planning template which is the point
of connectivity for inputs and outputs. The unit plan connects 3 inputs
(Mission/Policies, Curriculum framework and Annual planner/Unit Plan) with 3
outputs (Assessment, Recording and Reporting).
LwP can be adapted to
suit State/Territory systems and/or the needs of individual schools. The
LwP Learning and Teaching Management System includes a school management
system or can be connected to most schools’ existing management
system.
The LwP unit plan, and associated assessment rubric, is based
on a model of learning and is designed to develop student understanding and
ownership of the learning. The unit plan, which provid e s definitions
of the component parts of the learning model, also provides professional
learning for teachers each time they plan a unit of work.
Curriculum
inputs, once entered into the curriculum plan, automatically populate the
fields within assessment, recording and reporting templates.
