Apologies if I missed a posting about this but, is anyone running revision lectures for ITapps during the term break. I am having my students in for one day but it seems that maybe one of my pupils is interested in attending a more 'formalised' version of this.
If you can point out any being run, I'd be glad to receive details please. Ironically it seems that this one would like to see an alternative.(he doesnt pay attention in my classes anyway so it could benefit him).
Will be doing past exam papers and topic summaries when in for the day during the break anyway (for those who turn up).
KB.
 
ps.. Anyone out there whos a maths teacher that specialises in STATS? I'm doing online studies and my next (last) unit is Stats and I'm looking for resources for next term. Book suggestions welcome, will be in Melbourne during the break for a day or 2 and can make purchases where suitable. Any suggestions welcomed. Online website refs also welcomed. Its the GradCertMaths at ACU for those curious...If anyone has seen a flyer promoting it for next year..be warned, if you have no or minimum maths background, you WILL find it hard yakka! Its designed to prepare you to take VCE maths and it takes you quite a bit higher than that level during the year with the Calculus and Geometry units. Semester 1 is really hard yakka, Semester 2 you kinda get used to the high standard by then and its still hard but easier to handle.

A book which has learning activities, you can purchase a site license which you can then upload pdfs to intranets etc.

 

Its called "Creating Dynamic content using PHP & MySQL"

 

My year 11's are working with it at the moment, I plan to use it in SofDev next year.

Kevorks guide to PHP and MySQL is great, available through VITTA. And no I don't receive money from Kevork's work.

How easy to learn is PHP? Havent used it but am interested/keen to find out more about it as a potential classroom language. Have found VB6 pretty easy to pick up having just learned it this semester. ie PHP for a 'self learner' to then teach it.  No, I dont mean the idiots guide to PHP, coz I'm no idiot! 

Considering offering it to my kids..(the keen ones!)

FYI below .. Interesting to read how users can register to participate for free in the online activities. Certainly worth considering if you are not going to this event in Adelaide.

Some of you may have heard of the siMERR activity jointly run by VITTA and the ICTEV with some resources and activities published online by President Adrian.
