April was a busy month, we held our student conference on April 4. This year we changed the format, so we had 4 groups working with juniors from 10:45 to 12:20. The juniors had 4 sessions of 20 minutes each. The sessions involved using hand held devices, what you can do on a macbook, interactive games for juniors and photobooth.
The seniors got to choose what they would like to do, and had a choice of 8 workshops. These were handheld devices for seniors, Comic Life, Stykz, Digital Photography, Using the IWB, Keynote, Garageband and the X-Box.
The conference as a whole was a success, for us the next steps are to try and incorporate the learning and leadership the students were exposed to into our daily routine. In room 9 we are hoping to extend what we have learnt in our work with our buddy class in room 4. The juniors also have electives that include photography and comic life so we are hoping we can help in that area.
