Been a long time since I blogged on here. I have been in iPad training all day today for my school. We are introducing iPads across the school for some lessons. Each department will have to deliver a unit of work solely through iPads. It will be an interesting experiment, and I remain semi-sceptical about it, yet a little excited. Some of the apps that we are using and testing are great, and hold fantastic potential for teaching and learning and assessment.

We are however also trialling FrogOS with the iPads - we have been using Frog 3 for this year, which has been interesting. Some staff and taken it on board well, and others not. I suppose this is always the case.

I have been reading on here some other people vent their Frog issues. Every VLE will have its issues and technical negatives, but it seems that Frog is quite widely disliked in many ways. It is interesting to read about lots of people finding the whole "refresh" thing being an issue - whenever you go back or to another page, Frog reloads to the home page, losing all what you had created / been viewing. This also happens when you press F5. It seems (having trialled FrogOS for a while now) that FrogOS still does this!! You would have thought that Frog would have sorted this by now!! It can't be that hard, surely? Other than that though, I have to say that FrogOS seems easier and much more user friendly for teachers adding pages, creating content etc.

What are your thoughts? Anyone been using Frog for a long time? Any one using FrogOS?

Over and out.
