I should have written this before and I will try now to keep a weekly reflection of the project and the activities that I have set the pupils.
I introduced pupils schoolbuk and how to use it on the ipod. It was a good training session which I used a combination of desk top computers and the ipod (The training took 75 minutes which was less time than I had expected.) The session also included introducing pupils to the project and setting clear expectations of what they would be required to do.
The First Activity that pupils had to do was to find out what coursework they have outstanding and which subjects they have got exams in. Students responded well to this activity and it gave them an opportunity to speak to their teachers to find out exactly where they are within each of their courses.
Teacher that I spoke to also commented on the politeness and maturity that the students approached this task.
