Dr. Reha Akinci and Gill Wisher are the teachers in charge
of the WWW project at Mulberry (girls) Secondary School.
The school is a beacon school. It has 8 ICT rooms and each
faculty will have access to an ICT suite when the new building
work has been completed. Broadband has just been installed
so the school hopes this will provide a boost to its online
activities.
Under
the project the school has developed an English/ICT unit
called Shape Poems, where pupils use ICT to present poems
which are arranged in different shapes. The school hopes
to see a conversation develop around this using Think.com
as a publishing medium. The unit on Shape Poems will be
developed further from January.
The school hopes to develop links with a local primary school
as a means to develop communication. One possibility is
to explore the use of videoconferencing.
