Wii on the big screen

Have you ever thought of using a PS1 or Wii in the classroom? perhaps it’s not as outrageous as it first sounds. A project with LTS is currently exploring the benefits which can be brought to learning by using commercially available games like Wii Sports, Brain Training on the DS and Singstar on the PS2.

We are currently thinking about how some schools in Renfrewshire could be involved in piloting some of these ideas. Watch this space for details at the next ICT coordinators meetings in March.
