S3 Homework Task
The following homework task is for ALL my S3 pupils.
Sign into google from the Google home page and go to Google Docs.
I have posted the S3 Exam feedback form via email to everyone who has an email address. You should then either-
1. Complete the feedback form in full online, save it, rename it to your name and upload and share it back to me at my DonCurlywurly gmail address (remember the @ before gmail)
Or
2. Save the document to your PC and print it out then fill it in the old fashioned way and return it to me.
All homework should be submitted by Thursday 21st May at Lunchtime.
If you choose not to take part in this task you will be disqualified from the MP4 Competition!
I will offer support in class over the next week if needed and you can contact me through this blog as well.
Google Docs is accessable everywhere, so no excuses for not doing homework guys!
Remember to verify your Google Account at your live or hotmail inbox or junk folder!

The Magnificent 7 – New Podcasts Added
Three new Podcasts have been added to iTunes today, that makes 7 in total with 2 more to come. New Podcasts are, the Workbench, Measurement and the Marking Guage. Great for study or watching on the bus to school with friends. 
Get on over to iTunes and download today! (Click HERE to see how to subscribe)
The story so far…
Well, both S3 classes have now agreed on a set of rules for membership of the Blog. The rules were agreed by all and we used a template provided by Learning & Teaching Scotland. The rules will make sure everyone involved has a fun, safe and educational experience using the Blog.
Our next step is to become familiar with using Google Docs to access the ‘Department Documents’ pupils will need for the course. The first task will be to download and complete a feedback form which will be based on your recent performance in the S3 Exams.

MP4’s In Class – You Got It !
Up to now, the use of any type of digital media player in the classroom has been a no-no. Not any more! (Well, not in my class).
But, whilst some are lucky enough to have Pods and MP3 players, what about the other pupils in class who don’t?
Thanks to Mr D and the guys at Do-Be learning (See the link on the right) I will soon be taking delivery of 20, yes 20 MP4 players packed with study tips, chill-out tips and loads of space for my podcasts. These will be given to pupils in my Craft and Design class and will be used regularly to support their learning (special rules apply).
Watch this space for more information!!!!
