VIDEOSCRIBE TRAINING

Last week Oliver McPartlin, our resident Videoscribe expert, trained some of the Digital Leaders in using Videoscribe. We now have several experts scribing away - get in touch if you would like one of us to show you how it works!

Here's an example of what a completed VideoScribe looks like - some technology facts from assembly!

4D space plan

It was a pleasure to teach the classes, I loved every minute of it. Katy put the videos up onto the 4D space iPad and it worked brilliantly. After the first lesson we both discussed what we were going to improve on...

As a result, we fixed the lights in the 4d space, made the game even more fun and added brainstorming sessions.

Altogether we couldn't have done it without Miss Pilkington and Lucus Burns. Thank you and we would love to do it again.

A Geography lesson in the 4D space

Last week, two of our digital leaders planned and delivered a lesson using our brand new 4D learning space. Katy Hempson and Arron Deacon were asked by Mrs Eastham to plan a lesson on rainforests. Katie and Arron are writing a blog entry to tell you all about what they did and how it went, but here are some pictures in the meantime. Well done to Katy and Arron!

GENIUS BAR

On Thursday lunchtimes, the Digital Leaders create the Genius Bar in the LRC. This has so far been run twice, and has been really successful - teachers and students have come along to ask for help and assistance. In the first week, Reuben helped Miss Rose with her pen drive; Taylor helped Mr McDermott with Wordpress and Arron and Katy were recruited by Mrs Eastham to help with the 4D space. Updates and photos to follow!

DIGITAL LEADERS LOGO DESIGN

The first task for our new Digital Leaders was to design a logo - this was the winning design! Look out for the badges - they will be arriving soon!
