Here are some examples of activities which can be done using digital technology to support the Maths & numeracy AOLE.
These could be adapted to suit the topic or theme in the classroom.
Learners should develop their ability to demonstrate their understanding of that knowledge in various media.
The teacher's role is to ensure that learners are equipped with the knowledge of the subject area and an understanding of the tools to express what has been learnt.

Using Podcasts in the Classroom
Learners being able to create their podcasts will allow them to explain what they have understood about a topic they have been learning about. A podcast allows learners to interact and share information in a 'semi-formal' manner. They can plan their conversation and have a lead 'interviewer' who can direct the conversation with questions, they will need to develop their listening skills to allow their conversation to not seem scripted. TIP...the less scripted content the more real the conversation.
This conversation could be to explain the different ways in which a problem has been solved.
