10. “Maintain an online reading journal so that readers may log their reading experiences and others, such as parents and teachers, may comment and make suggestions to guide future reading.” “Use a discussion board for pupils to share ideas. For example, responding to a text. Where appropriate, extend the principle by allowing access from home or by working in partnership with people from another school.”

17. “Take any digitally recorded audio outcomes from pupils’ work and share with a wider audience via the Internet. Eg. as part of the Y6 journalistic writing unit pupils may produce a radio news bulletin and augment it with interviews, adverts and other types of text appropriate to the medium of radio.” “Audio files may be simply uploaded to a website so that they may be downloaded manually by listeners. Alternatively, if regular episodes are to be broadcast, have a podcast feed set up so that listeners may subscribe and have episodes delivered to them automatically. Eg. a regular radio podcast through which a single class share examples of poetry, audio plays, interviews, stories, reports/recounts, advertisements etc.”
