• Reflect on the video tutorials you have seen and the success criteria we came up with last time.

Planning

1. Think of a simple skill to teach;
2. Practice and master the skill;
3. Plan and practice the demonstration and commentary;
4. Give and receive feedback from learning partner;
5. Improve your presentation;
6. Repeat steps 2 – 5 until it is AMAZING!  (Should be hard work – put in lots of effort and you will be successful)
7. Be resilient – act on feedback and keep improving.

When you are read to record

• Get your title screen and working area ready
• Go to Start – Programs – Online shortcuts – Screencastomatic
• Click start recording
• Don’t expect to be successful first time
• Keep testing, checking, evaluating…

• ** could try SnagIt (Chrome extension) as another way of recording your screen.  You will need to be logging in with your Google account.

The Design Cycle

(I like “Problem” instead of “investigate”)

1. What is animation?
2. What are the skills/attitudes needed?
3. Let’s look at JIT animate!

Your task

• Log into J2e and go to JIT and “animate”
• Choose a word from our collectioin of positive words
• Practise drawing it a few times
  • colours
  • make it fit
• Animate the word
• Keep on
  • testing out your animation
  • saving
• ** Add something at the end that adds to the idea
• ** could use several of the same frame to slow down or pause animation

• Multimedia projects for rest of term.
• Content can be chosen by you within the theme of “looking after nature”.
• Could be a story, information or a mixture of both.
• Think about the LQ and make a list of ways we can make oru content interactive.
• You could work collaboratively (up to 3 in group) as long as you all produce at least one page entirely by yourselves.
• Get into groups and start planning.
• You could plan as a mindmap.

How many files have you got?  How easy is it for you to find them?  How easy is it for other people to find files?  How can we make it easier?

Success steps

• create folders (RH click)
• cut and paste files (RH click)
• move files between folders
• make sure files have clear nanes
• delete unnecessary files and folders
• add tags to online files
• search in windows explorer
• search j2e files by name, tag and type

Work through these tasks:

Your folder on the school server

1. Click start menu, computer
2. Open your class folder, eg “3a on Phoenix…”
3. Open your named folder
4. Create folders, eg Year 3, Year 4
5. Drag files into folders
6. To move files out of folders:
   1. select file(s);
   2. cut (ctrl-x or RH click cut);
   3. go to the folder where you want it;
   4. paste (ctrl-v or RH click paste)

Your j2e files

1. Log into j2e and open “my files”
2. Create folders
3. Drag files into folders (or drag them out if necessary)
4. Tag files with useful tags
5. Computing portfolio folder
   1. My badges
   2. Scratch project
6. Upload files to j2e by dragging them onto “drop files here”

Your learning blog

• If you haven’t got a learning blog in j2bloggy, create one!
• If you have, customise it, create a new post about your learning.
• Send me the link using the “info form” under lesson links on my blog.

Success steps 1

• Log into j2e and Google Apps (see links on menu bar)
• Create a table in j2e
• Copy in data accurately
• Make a graph from your table
• Experiment with settings for graph – which graph shows the data most clearly?
• Write a conclusion for your data:  What does it show?  Why do you think this?

Success steps 2

• In Google Apps, go to drive
• Make a new Sheet
• Enter some data accurately
• Produce a graph
• Take a screenshot (Shift + PrntScr) and paste into your j2e page
• Write a conclusion
• Print your work (with your name on!)
