[Year 12 SofDev] Advice for teaching combined classes

[Andrew Shortell]

The only sane advice that I can think of is use a lot of podcasts, screen casts, videos
Flipped classroom stuff

We use google apps but the following can also be done with drop box and other cloud services :
I use a lot of stuff which I store in my google drive which I share with students 
There is one folder for 'info' stuff which they only. Have read access
Another folder to which they can write where they share summaries, vocab lists, and other bits such as SRS communal projects etc
They also have their own shared folder on their google drive which they share with me

If you only have four or five of each then you can probably manage with sharing time between them and overlapping with things like PSM, h/w, sw, etc

In sof dev my students use Adrian's book on the  iPad - a few purchased paper copy too.

Vera - you have taught sof dev? But Kate, have you?
If not it wi ll be very hard, else give up now? End if

In term 3 get your unit 2 students to do NCSS as their programming component cause that gives you five weeks to focus n teh big sac in sof dev.
