HappyMaz Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 (edited) A friend just passed me this link - apparently this organisation are giving away free memory sticks to teachers/teaching support staff. It contains pre-loaded resources for teachers, but also some spare capacity for saving stuff. I haven't heard of this before - but it does look pukka although there is that saying that if it looks too good to be true it probably is! Look here and see what you make of it. Is it genuine or a scam? Maz Edited October 1, 2008 by HappyMaz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 Great idea. No idea if it is genuine or not. Has anyone read any mention of it in TES or other teaching or teachers' union publication? I wonder how much free space there is on the stick and how much is resources and publicity for companies/sites. I am not in UK, so can't benefit myself.

Guest Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 I've just registered as Nursery owner, curriculum area as 'general' using my home address, will be interesting to see if I still get one. Thanks for the info Maz As well as advertisers it looks like it will generate 'traffic' to a web site as well. Peggy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louby loo Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 thanks for that maz - these days I need as much memory help as possible- so any extra is always a bonus!!! On the website it says - helps eliminate the need to carry around laptops. Do you reacon we'll be able to plug them straight into our brains....... now that would be good!!! I've ordered mine like Peggy - home address, so hope I get one. xxxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrsWeasley Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 I wonder how much free space there is on the stick and how much is resources and publicity for companies/sites. I just had a quick read on the website - and it says that there is 1GB storage on the stick, not including the embedded stuff they've put on there. They say you can't delete the reseources they've put on it, but there's probably some way around this. I guess we will find out when they come.. if they come Mrs Weasley.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
