[Yr7-10it] Year 10 Info Tech semester 2

[BROWN. Jeananne]

Hi everyone
I really appreciate all the helpful hints, ideas and information on the list.

I'm wondering if others teaching Y10 this semester could tell me in general terms what they are doing?
I have just picked up this subject and am developing a course around website evaluation, search engines, project management and using Web2.0 tools. Does this sound reasonable?
I want them to be engaged and achieve but also to learn some of the foundation things that they just never think about.
By looking at the class list I have 3/4 boys - no surprises there! The few girls are not the tech types.

I have been looking at the ICT components of the sample units on VELS site. Some ideas there that helped.

I'm happy to be pointed in the direction of anything that will assist.

As always - grateful for any and all advice.

TIA
Jeananne
