12/6/19 We used our new chromebooks and had great fun exploring Stop Motion.  We made short films.  We will now teach our classes how to use this.

24/5/19 P6/7 digital leaders enjoyed exploring Technobots at the Library today.  See class blog for more photos.

15/5/19  An exciting day for the Digital Leaders.  Our new class Chromebooks arrived.  We delivered them to the P1-5 classrooms.

20/3/19  We updated our action plan and evaluated targets still to be met.  We discussed introducing an animation software/tool to the whole school.

4/3/19 We looked at an introduction to coding using code.org.  We worked through basic strategies using directions and then introduced the repeat block.  We all practised these skills and are now ready to share these with our own classes.  P1/2 will complete this during Sharetime with P6/7D.

11/2/19  Today we continued working through our Action Plan.  We focused on using Google Drive and Docs today.  We revised naming a document clearly and discussed how a document would be saved automatically in Chrome.  We then looked at organising our own documents into folders in My Drive.   We will now teach our own classes how to do this.

16/1/19  We welcomed Dillon and Duncan to our committee and started the training linked to our action plan.  We revised how to open a Word Document, and Save it into pupil shared drive.  We then found our document in Pupil Shared Drive and continued working on it.  P5-7 pupils then taught these skills to P1-4 committee members.  All members will deliver training to their classes in the next fortnight.

5/12/18   We completed an audit of digital skills that we felt needed to be taught or revised.  We then prioritised the skills.  This will form our action plan for delivering to classes.
