<DIV><FONT face=3DArial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=3DArial>I am teaching yr 11 IT for the first time next year=
(with
25 kids!)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=3DArial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=3DArial>anyway i have just started having a look at it and
thinking about the curriculum</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=3DArial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=3DArial>i have produced a course outline (both for myself an=
d for
the students) - see attached</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=3DArial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=3DArial>I would appreciate any feedback on it from others wh=
o have
or are teaching units 1 and 2 </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=3DArial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=3DArial>in particular unit 2 outcome 2 (networks) seems=
fairly dry -- any1 got any ideas to jazz it up?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=3DArial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=3DArial>I was thinking of some practical component using old=
PCs
or something - anybody tried something like that?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=3DArial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=3DArial>overall thought the course looks pretty fun - lost o=
f room
for the kids to express themselves and be creative </FONT></DIV>
