Some stuff to think about..

  • What kinds of stuff are you going to put in your blog?
  • Are you happy to share some of it with other students so they can learn from your blog or do you want to keep it to yourself?
  • Can you use photos or record yourself talking to get your point across? Does it have to be written?

Showcase of student’s work

We hope over the coming months to use this area as a showcase for exemplary work from student’s of the partnership schools. This could be in the form of video, podcasts, digital imaging or other digital media. If you have any work you would like to share then please let us know through the comments facility.
