Unlocking Learning : The Olympics

We are about to start a new Unlocking Learning Project with Year 7 based around the theme of the Olympics. The page design has started to be put together with the holding page in place. Keep checking back for more details on the way we are going to share resources and use the forums for learning and skills discussions.

Election 2010

Election 2010 Page

 We have designed a page on Frog for students to contribute their thoughts about the General Election. The page links directly to sources of good information on the BBC Election website but also considers students views. There is a MetaTag vote looking at which policies students feel are the most important, an area for them to make comments on what they believe are issues when voting and also an online forum.

This layout and the graphics are available for download on the Frog Shared area.

Frog Conference

This year Haybridge High School are presenting at the Frog Conference in Manchester. Our presentation will focus on sustaining the momentum of using Frog and considering the small projects we have put in place to improve communication, promote active engagement and develop teaching and learning. Visit the Frog Website to find out more about the conference and also visit the haybridge Frog Conference page to find out more information about what we will be talking about.

Active Learning

Active Learning is the start of a new area we are developing in our VLE to impact on teaching and learning. The idea is an online resource is created for a topic / theme in a subject. The resource has links, key words, videos, MP3’s, worksheets, exemplar answers etc and allows students to do further research adding to the depth of their work. We are hoping we can develop this with the new features of Frog 3.0 and allow pages to be easily created by a simple click of a button. The first example we have considered is below and was based around social, moral and environmental issues in Technology.

The lesson was pitched at Year 12 students and was set as a cover lesson. On returning to the group it was clear to see that students had benefited from a clear resources as most had completed 2/3 of the task and came to the member of staff for the teacher led guidance. We are exicted about this area and hope it will have a major impact on all subjects in school.
