Mail on Sunday DTP exercise

(4)
A series of videos that show students how to create a DTP version of the Mail on Sunday. Your best students should be able to create something that would be hard to tell from the real thing!! The 2 graphics are an example front cover and the masthead of the paper. Sorry about the lack of controls on the films, but can't re-render.

Triggered animations in Open Office Impress

Series of tutorials using Impress (sorry for wrongly labelling this as Powerpoint previously) to create a quiz that uses triggered animations and sounds recorded by students. Ideal exercise for combining ICT with Languages. I must apologise to any French teachers in advance for me poor attempts at speaking the language!!

Banner advert in Flash

(1)
Useful for unit 20 of the OCR Nationals course. A set of short videos about how to create a simple banner advert in Flash. If you don't like cartoon violence then a penguin being hit by a car may not be for you. Once again sorry about the lack of controls but I have lost the original screencasts.

Sorry about the lack of controls on the videos but I can't find the original recordings to rerender. Anyway nice set of tutorials to show kids how to make a two player racing game in scratch. Have to admit there are a few mistakes later on, but kids will be able to work out how to amend!!

We use this exam with our year 7's as their end of year exam. The mark scheme is a simple tick sheet exercise that enables you to grade the work created very quickly. Sorry about all the separate photos but you can't use a zip file here.

Languages quiz using Open Office Impress

(1)
In these videos we show you how to make a quiz using triggered animations and Open Office Impress rather than Powerpoint. In this example, we create a quiz for a French class and this sort of work is a good cross curricular exercise between ICT and languages.

Simple tutorial but highly effective and engaging for students of all ages. Using just 2 layers in Flash and a few tools you can create a piece of art work in the style of Julian Opie. You will be surprised at just how good your students will get with this one, we have some amazing work on the walls at school that Mr Opie himself would have been proud of....

Fish and shark game using scratch

Of all my scratch tutorials this is my favourite. Lots of skills and commands used in scratch and the kids end up with a game that they will genuinely play. Loads of extension possibilities are easily identifiable too.

Mail merging a picture using Publisher and Access

We have had a few posts on the ICT forum in the past about how to mail merge a picture. Seem to get lots of long winded answers so I thoguht I would create this video to show you how it is done. I have used this video with my own AS level students who are doing the WJEC course.

Yes it's a fab set of videos to show kids how to make the very first video game Pong. Once they are happy with it I would personally set them the task to make the game 'breakout'.

Web design using Dreamweaver part 1

A series of video tutorials to show students how to build a website from scratch using Dreamweaver. Very suitable for OCR National students who want to access distinction grades. Certainly useful for AS level students too and there is no reason why the more able KS3 student could not use this material too. Also covers some basic work with Fireworks and Flash too. PLEASE NOTE 2 MORE VIDEOS IN THIS SERIES IN PART 2
