John Johnston

I am a primary school teacher in Scotland. I also work part-time as a Product Owner for Glow where I am the Product Owner on the Blog team.

From 2008 till 2016 I worked as an Educational ICT Staff development officer in North Lanarkshire.

I've pioneered using web technology in the classroom, in particular blogging and podcasting. I've experience of using digital and mobile technology inside and outside the classroom.

I enjoy digital technology and mixing them up in creative ways for fun and learning.

I am interested in projects that involve learning and collaboration in online spaces.

I've blogged at John's World Wide Wall Display since 2005, mostly about ICT in the classroom.

I also blog at my “106 drop in” about digital storytelling and experiments in mashing up digital media.

Along with David Noble I run EDUtalk an open to anyone podcast and Internet Radio Station about all aspects of Education.

I helped Robert Jones develop ScotEduBlogs and now run that service, if you are a Scottish EduBlogger you are welcome to join in.

I've made some web tools the most useful is a Simple FlickrCC Search, and various mashups the strangest recently being Gif the Dub.
