I'm an international teacher currently working in Lima, Peru. I've previously worked at schools in Hong Kong, Abu Dhabi and South Korea. I teach Computer Science, core ICT and have just launched IB Digital Society at my school this year. My husband also works as a Computer Science teacher (and yes we talk tech all the time!) I hope that you find my resources useful and please give me feedback on how you get on with them, as well as any improvements or new content that you'd like to see.

Bundle of Resources for Teaching the IA Inquiry Project for IB Digital Society

(0)
If you’ve just starting teaching IB Digital Society this year, you’ll know that there are hardly any resources out there to use, apart from the textbook I’ve uploaded the full set of lesson presentations that I am using for the IA (Inquiry Project) aspect of the course, with presentations, suggested activities and the 3 example IAs and Process Documents provided by the IB I would recommend that you start with the activities shown in the ‘Analysis of Exemplar Inquiry Projects’ powerpoint. Get your students to look at the 3 example projects, and then ask students how they would mark them, using the IA Rubric. Finally, ask students to compare their grades with the grades from the IB You should then be ready to start the next powerpoint ‘Creating Your Inquiry Project (IA)’. Students should use the ‘Evaluate Your Topic’ template to decide on an emerging technology to investigate, then complete the Process Document template. Finally, students should prepare a set of slides and a script for their 10min video using the templates provided. I am hoping to add seperate bundles for the IB Digital Society Standard Level course soon, as well as resources for the teaching the Extended Essay for this course Please do give me feedback on these resources as I have also started teaching the course this year, and would love to know if you have found these useful, or if there is anything you think could be added / improved or removed!

Hour of Code Companion Resources

(0)
I’ve created a set of companion resources to go alongside the Hour of Code activities on the HoC website, as I kept finding that although, my pupils loved using them, they kept getting stuck on the same levels and didn’t know how to grasp the basics, such as using repeats or variables to make their code more efficient. I’ve picked out some of the most challenging levels in the Hour of Code activities, the Frozen and Plant vs. Zombies activities. Once they’ve got a grasp of how to use the repeats and variables on these activities, they should then be able to go on the complete the other activities independently. Also attached is a scaffolded version of the worksheet guide for pupils with additional learning needs. Find the the Hour of Code “Frozen” activity by searching for code dot org frozen stage 1 Find the the Hour of Code “Plants vs. Zombies” activity by searching for code dot org Plants vs Zombies If you liked these, please check out my other resources if you enjoyed these - programming, HTML, animation, drones, using Adobe Illustrator and other graphic design bits and pieces.

Celebrate International Womens Day on 8th March with your tutor group, class or as part of an online assembly.

Included in the presentation is a selection of ideas to do in class, online or at home, as well as a Netflix and Disney+ watch list. On the second half of the presentation is a deep dive into some ideas for discussion if you want to dig a little deeper into some of the issues facing many women day today, such as what is the ‘mental load’, why are some people scared by the word ‘feminist’, and why shouting at a woman in the street whilst she is exercising is not a compliment. Included are a set of slides which can be presented online or viewed and printed offline. Also included is an online wordsearch (for which I have also included a printable version), and a memory round powerpoint, with a timer. Find the links to the online versions of the presentation and wordsearch in the attached Word doc Please check out my other resources - I have loads of complete units of work for ICT, Animation, Computing an Graphic Design that I hope you will find useful and will also save you time!
Women in Tech / Sexism Debate / ITGS unit of work
LucyCollingwoodLucyCollingwood

Women in Tech / Sexism Debate / ITGS unit of work

(1)
Where are the women in technology? I first started writing this unit of work after the Google engineer James Damore released a memo in July 2017 that stated that the reason why there were less females in technology was because their gender meant they didn’t enjoy using or working with technology. Subsequent to this was the Harvey Weinstein scandal and #MeToo movement where misogyny and workplace harassment came under the spotlight, as did the President Club furore, Oxfam sex abuse as well as burgeoning awareness campaigns in sports, banking, the BBC and government. This unit of work can used be as a debate project where pupils can choose to investigate an aspect of the debate / a whole class debate theme / as an assembly or as a one off discussion lesson on women in technology (such as for International Womens Day on 9th March, Ada Lovelace Day on 10th Dec etc). It also works well for politics, ITGS and LPS / PSHCE. I’ve included the lesson presentation with Success Criteria for constructing a debate, James Damore’s memo, a slideshow on top 20 females in technology, various starter activities, some useful links with statistics, news articles or further reading, and some suggested comebacks for tricky questions that might crop up. This is a tough but important aspect of technology to teach so I’d love to hear how you get on and how it has worked with your classes. Please give me any feedback on aspects that could be improved or new links, sites or activities that have worked for you. If you enjoyed these resources, please check out my others on programming, Illustrator, graphic design, animation and various others.
Bundle of  team work starters - Technology Timelines

Bundle of team work starters - Technology Timelines

(0)
A bundle of 5 different themed technology timeline starters featuring Inventions, Hardware, Computer Games, Females in Computing and Sci-Fi Films. These make great starters for any lesson or year group but are particularly good for GCSE Computer Science or IB courses to get them talking about influential individuals or pieces of technology. What you need to do is divide your class into mixed ability groups of 4 (pairs also work well) and give them a blank timeline board, the 17 events, and the set of 4 team cards. Each person needs to read out their card and see if they can put a few of the key events down (each card tells them the date of one event). They then need to use their team work skills to work out the dates for the other events not mentioned on their card, but that links to or is mentioned on another card. I would recommend laminating the blank timeline boards, team cards and the printable cards so that you can use several times with different classes. I printed off two copies of each board so that I had a couple of spares. Any teams that finished early were then given a new board to solve together. If several teams finished at the same time I got them to swap over their boards. Be vigilant about some of the cut up events going missing! I labelled on the back of the events what themed board they went with (e.g. CG2 = Computer Games Set 2) as I was worried about them getting jumbled up when I collected them in. Please review this resource, I’d love to get your feedback and find out other ideas for how to use these in class! Check out my other resources too if you have found this set useful - I’ve got loads of other bundles or entire units of work for programming, HTML, animation, drones, using Adobe Illustrator and other graphic design bits and pieces. Enjoy :)
Sample unit for using drones in class

Sample unit for using drones in class

(0)
A sample unit for using drones in class - the ppt explains how we use drones in our school - we create ideas for a problem that a drone could solve in Nearpod. These designs are then planned on paper and prototyped in Tinkercad. The final version is printed using our 3D printers. We then use Tynker to program the drones. Also included are some introductory skills that you can build with your classes when they fly the drones - theres one for getting them to land the drone on a target board, and take a photo of the ‘Reconnaissance’ board and return to base. You can use the Score Card template if you want to turn it into a competitive team challenge. Take a look at my other resources if you enjoyed these - whole units are included for App Development and Animation, as well as resources for using Adobe Illustrator etc

A bundle of starter activities for using Adobe Illustrator in a Powerpoint and Word file - missing words, name the tool, memory round, mix and match, fill in the blanks, Odd One Out, Taboo, What's on the Board and a set of printable Bingo cards. You can display these on the board, or print them out if you wish. How to play Taboo - choose two pupils, one who will describe the word on the board and one who will try and guess. The pupil who is guessing must face away from the board. The pupil describing MUST NOT say any of the Taboo words. They can't say 'It sounds like...' or what letter the word begins with. They have 60 seconds to get their partner to work out what it is. You can then swap them out and pick two different pupils, or choose a winner to stay on. How to play What's on the Board - choose two pupils, one who will describe the word on the board and one who will try and guess. The pupil who is guessing must face away from the board. The pupil describing should try to describe as many words as possible (you can set a timer if you wish). I have also uploaded a set of skills sheets with accompanying videos and a printable help guide if you have found these useful.
