Well, a new school year is underway and the first round of Integrated Learning Projects got underway. On day 2, Lawrence, Jo and I taught 14 year 8 students to use ACID to create jingles and radio segments. Some also had the opportunity to use the new school radio station - a new development at the Chalfonts Community College.
Having a pro like Lawrence and technical guru in Jo I was able to relax a little more than last year and so was able to blog regularly throughout the day capturing the kids experience of the day.
Please use the following links to see video footage of the kids work and their thoughts.
