This edition features a profile on the Portfolio activity, namely how to
create slide shows and accompanying audio notes.

The lesson tip has been taken from a school in Rwanda and invites students
to explore the effects of pollution in their community.

If you are currently in training and expecting XOs on completion, please
make sure you read the deployment update in edition

have now deployed all available XO stock so teachers currently training
will receive their class set of XOs in Term 3 with the new “clicky”
keyboard.

We are currently welcoming article submissions for the newsletters ‘In the
field’ section. If you would like to contribute to this section, please
