First official week :)

So half way through the first official week of our degree....

I have been searching high and low through my mums books and she seems to have a lot on ICT- unfortunately majority of them are about teaching ICT in Primary schools but I am going to photocopy a few pages out of the books that I think could be useful.
I'm also posting this link https://www.thinkuknow.co.uk/teachers/ which has a lot about e-safety on which I think will be useful for ICT presentation. I think this will be useful as it would be useful for us to look at both pros and cons of ICT and the child.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/society/2011/oct/02/facebook-children-bullying-fake-names- I thought this could be useful as it talks about how children are using Facebook, unfortunately it is more about older children to teens but thought it made a good point on how easy it is for children who are not old enough to access the site.

Warwick Day... my oh my that place is overwhelming! I'm going to try and get over there every couple of weeks I think and make use of the library as there were more than enough books on Education. A bit disappointed in going over to collect my University card to find out there has been yet more problems with Warwicks system so the card isn't ready. Seem to be on a constant rollercoaster ride with Warwick having my high and low points- hopefully after Monday (when everything will be sorted) will be high points from then on.

Fionas lesson today.. I found it interesting learning about the different components through child development- in particular language development as I didn't realise so many things could count towards this, i.e. Drawing, writing and even play.
    I think for the theory we need to find more information on next week I may choose Piaget, simply because I think there will be plenty of information I can find out about Piaget- however I will keep you posted as I may change my mind.

My only worry today is Study Skills as I'm all of a sudden panicking about the portfolio, I think I know what we need to do but am now doubting myself but will double check next week.
