Well it has been a year since I took up post as an ICT staff tutor.  My secondment will continue for a second year but my role is likely to change due to local restructuring.  It is the time of year when I am to write up achievements and next steps in my personal review; here is a sample:

A sample of projects I was involved with this year:

  • Successful probationer support inset days for primary and secondary colleagues; animation using Pivot; ActivStudio and ActivPrimary and voting technologies; interactive quizzes using Hot Potatoes etc.
  • Series of twilights (Activ Studio; Publisher; Interactive Worksheets; Powerpoint)
  • Variety of school inset training: blogs, wikis and podcasts; pre GLOW skills; PPMS; CPD Online; Remote Ranger; Quizdom; Activstudio beginner-advanced.
  • CEOP Ambassador training and training of a further 50 colleagues.
  • GLOW mentor training.
  • School website construction.
  • Davis weather station set up and connection to Intranet.
  • Organising Love Your Whiteboard sessions with Promethean L & T advisor Jancice Black.

Over the summer holiday I plan to develop our advanced ActivStudio course, it was one of those things that got put to one side over the year but during this extended holiday I should be able to get stuck into preparing the notes, tasks and resources that the course participants will use in the 4hour course.  Check back in August and I should have the materials uploaded.
