Reviewed & Planned

Well, I think that the first module of this final year is done and dusted now... and what a relief!

Now I really must get back on track with the second....

Keeping up with the times...

I am having a little trouble keeping up with my ILP as I have found myself now timetabled to deliver 12 lessons in the LRC this coming week. This has necessitated reviewing the lessons delivered last year. The Head of ICT suggested incorporating some changes and we have also come up with a new task sheet incorporating booleans AND, OR and NOT. The accompanying study skills lesson has also been reviewed by us in the LRC and new activities added to take the place of the elements we moved into the year 7 induction lessons.

The graduateness chat mentioned last post was extremely useful and a few others have followed since. I have been looking at why 'graduateness' needs to be defined and put the foundations of the discussion down to the 1992 Further & Higher Education Act that paved the way for Polytechnics to rename themselves Universities and for degrees to be awarded for more vocational subjects which had not previously been awarded graduate status.

Now to be succinct about that in the module....
