About Me
My name is Sue Waters and I’m the person behind Mobile Technology. You may also know me as the editor of The Edublogger

“I am about practical application of technologies in education, and most importantly HELPING OTHERS”.

I have been sharing my experiences with Web 2.0, e-learning and m-learning (mobile learning) using a range of web sites since early 2006.

Many of my sites are called Mobile Technology in TAFE because my original focus was mlearning. Nowadays my sites cover a wide range of information on using technology with students. TAFE stands Tertiary and Further education which is part of the vocational education and training sector.

Here are my sites:
My Blog
The Edublogger
My Podcasts
My Wiki

    Many thanks Sue, your blog looks very informative, looks like you have been exploring and learning lots. Will also need to check out twitter, another Web 2.0 technology to explore. Finding it hard to find the time as Xmas approaches.
    All the best and have a great festive season.

    Sue -

    I'm interested in the survey you did on computer literacy before a training (mentioned back in July, I think). Where can I see the actual survey, if you don't mind sharing?

    Hi Sue,

    With your work in mLearning and Ed Tech, I recommend you take a look at Wiziq's virtual classroom and authorstream's power point presentation platform. Both are web based platforms, have a bunch of features and free basic service.

    Hi Sue,
    In December I had never seen a Wiki. My students and I jumped in with both feet and haven't looked back. The students are very excited to have a real audience. Please take a look at what they've created so far. RPG Maker XP Help. We would appreciate any feedback you have. Currently the wiki is protected, so you'll have to either email me your feedback or give it through Classroom 2.0.
    Thanks!
    Pat

    I am wondering if you can help me out? It's a very basic question! I work for School Libraries in NSW and we have used your wonderful Edublogs for ages to create our blogs. Now the appearance has slightly changed and I literally don't know how to create a new blog! Our primary blog is at http://rapblog.edublogs.org/

    I seem to be creating a new post within an old blog, called Wildfrid blog, when what I want to do is set up 2 new addresses called http://rapblog6.edublogs.org/ [name: Bear and Chook books rap] and rapblog7.edublogs.org/ [name: Term 4 HSC Belonging 2009]

    Could you ring me if you have a minute and walk me through it on 98867478 - I am so sorry I don't get it.... It must be something so simple that I am stuffing up!!

    Cheers

    Hi Sue,

    I am the director of an adult education project in California that focuses on technology, and we are producing our fall newsletter. I would like to highlight a quote I paraphrased from your wiki, http://suewaters.wikispaces.com/ (which I love, by the way.) I need an outside voice supporting the use of read/write web options to expand our knowledge and connections. Do you feel comfortable with this as a quote?

    Personal Learning Networks (PLNs) are all about using web tools such as blogs, wikis, and email lists to create connections with others which extend our learning, increase our reflection, and enable us to learn together as part of a global community. PLNs increase our opportunities to ask questions and receive help compared to our normal daily face-to-face interactions.
    Sue Waters, Educational Technologist, Australia

    I might have to take out the last sentence. What about the credit, do you have a different title you would like me to use?

    Thanks, Sue, and thanks for all your good work! I've been coming across your name for a few years now.
