Oxfordshire ICT Team wrote a series of vignettes for the DfES CD ROMs Embedding ICT. These are the original history ones. They may be altered on the DfES CDs that you receive. We hope that colleagues will find these examples helpful in developing ICT capability and improving learning with ICT in their schools.
