Web Components Presentation Day

Firstly I'd like to say a big thanks to Mr Suggitt for taking the time to judge the presentations. The three group presentations were quite good and all students were given positive feedback for ways to improve and what they did well. Below are videos of the presentations and a group photo. WELL DONE YEAR 13.
....and I didn't even get paid for it!




The winning Presentation.

Rehearsals

Year 13 rehearsals for their web presentations are in full swing.  As their teacher I think I can see a slight panic setting in with them, however, they seems to be some really good ideas being discussed.

Understanding Web Architecture and Components

At last, all be it one month late, we have started this course. The next 6 weeks will teach students about web architecture and components.  Students have so far watched the following video from Common Craft http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZoMbBzqxyc and in the next lesson will design a flow diagram based on this topic.

Students were also given a contract to sign and all of thier assessment criteria materials which should keep them on track.  Students have also been shown their learning journey on the classroom room and been told to monitor this wall for coursework deadlines.
