I thought it was very good.  Some great ideas to use in the classroom. -Adam

Paul firmly rooted all he talked about in  a thorough understanding of pedagogy.  Technology should be used only when it will enhance the teaching of RE.

That said he was able to demonstrate a number of great way of using ipads and other technology in the classroom.  QR codes, Aurasma and Nearpod were but a few of the apps which students got to use during the day.

The students ended the day by using the ipads to create little films of a religious story!
