Ask Mr B?
A new part of Teach Me Tekkie has launched due to popular demand. Ask MrB aims to answer some of the best technical questions I get asked by pupils throughout the week in school. Each question posed by pupils will be answered in an attempt to share our wider technical knowledge with each other – you never know, we might just lear something together.

The Most Important Thing…
…I will post this year is a range of resources to support the learners in my school. I have had a number of requests for exam and study support resources over the last week or so and I have decided to make everything available in one handy place.
I have decided against a blog post for this stuff because any blog reader will know, it eventually gets lost further down the page as I blog more so I have created a ‘Wiki’ below for you to access all the resources for this years (and future years) examination diet.
There are links to the full SQA exam timetable, SQA and UCAS apps for your smartphone as well as a whole host of downloadable podcasts that will hopefully support you over the Easter Break and beyond.
If you have any special requests for study resources or would like to pass any resources on to me, please leave a comment below.
Good Luck everybody – and remember – I don’t need to have taught you If you want to use the resources!

GHA and the Big Red Truck
We had a visit in school today from Glasgow Housing Associations ‘Big Red Truck’.

The Big Red Truck is an exciting, interactive mobile exhibition, telling the story of the transformation in Glasgow’s housing stock; since it was transferred from Glasgow City Council to Glasgow Housing Association in 2003.
The Big Red Truck is a mobile, fully interactive exhibition that features:
A touch sensitive ‘Magic Table’;
A new, updated interactive video wall featuring our demolition footage and pictures;
The popular ‘Regeneration Game’; suitable for all ages & abilities and;
An opportunity to tell GHA your thoughts; for a chance of winning an iPad 2!!

Class 1.3 visited it with me and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
