About “Human”…
Hello and welcome
My name is Tomaz Lasic, the author of “Human”. If you wonder about the name of this site…well, none of this has meaning or value unless it is used and interpreted by fellow humans. I was actually very surprised when the blog name was still available!
I am a teacher and ICT coordinator at Belmont City College, a medium-size public school in Perth, Western Australia. I have a Masters Degree in Education and about twenty years experience of working with people, young and old(er), elite and beginners, as a coach, mentor and teacher. I have taught for nine years at various schools in WA. Currently, I coordinate efforts at our school to use ICT for greater motivation and engagement of staff and students.
My creed is “what if?” and I often tinker with ICT, particularly with Moodle and Web2.0 tools. My other passion of 30 years is water polo.
“Human” is here mainly to provide easy access to tutorials on Moodle and other ICT related topics for the members of our school community. If anyone out there finds “Human” useful – please feel free to use it, share it and support it. You can also follow me on Twitter @lasic
The blog contains a personal musing or two about technology and its impacts on the way we teach, but I am wary of adding to the glut of hype.
I am always open to employment offers from anywhere in the world – more stories to tell grandchildren one day!
Please feel free to leave a comment. Unless volunteered, please do not ask for any personal information, thank you.

A small token of sincere appreciation awaits you http://tsearl.edublogs.org/2008/08/30/web20-is-real-people/
Some of our tech shy staff(or supposedly tech savvy in a few critical areas) are now also asking, whats Moodle?
Thanks

Tomaz, I simply enjoy reading what you have to express. The thought “…but I am wary of adding to the glut of hype” struck me. Since I changed the name of my blog from TeachTech to Watershed I have felt a burden had been lifted. I blog about all sorts of stuff now. You are right, there is a lot of hype.
Cheers, John.

Everybody know mbt barabara black for Masai Barefoot Technology.The company that makes mbt maliza brown is Swiss Masai.This mbt chapa navy creates a natural, uneven walking surface and forces the body to use all the major and stabilsing muscle groups, thus training the whole body to move correctly.

mbt barabara shoes suit for the person who like running over walking, so covering the distances required in crowds is frustrating and uncomfortable, and standing for long periods is absolutely painful. Whether the mbt maliza black, for health, I think the mbt shoes may be overlooked mbt shadow shoes still despite what I’d consider to be tangible benefits.

A lot of people prefer to buy a Christian Dior handbags primarily due to its workmanship and quality materials.Nearly all women understand the value of a replica christian dior handbags. The right Dior handbag is as much a fashion statement as any other part of the outfit, and a great christian dior bags online
says much about the sophistication and taste of the wearer.
