Have a look at it and help me get more views than the company director.

There is a neat little app available that allows all you senior pupils to keep track of your UCAS applications. It’s free, music to the ears of all students and allows you to keep up to date with your applications progress.

Download it and let me know what you think?

Hi guys.  Exam fever is upon us and our Rock Band project is hotting up.  To date, our S3 Graphics pupils have formed teams and created a Band logo, produced draft Tour Posters and T-Shirt designs, CD Album covers and Charts showing predicted album sales over the next year.  Great stuff!!

The jamming sessions are getting serious too.  Pupils now have Beatles Rock Band and Lego Rock Band to chose songs from – the playlists are awesome.  The standings after our recent jamming sessions are

Graphic Rockers – 1,170,260

The Renegadez – 989,616

4 Aces – 860,204

Rollin Rockers – 748,527

Airr – 688,124

Things are gonna get even more serious as each band has the guest passes to compete in the upcoming BATTLE OF THE BANDS competition.  Sometime in June, all pupils are invited to form bands and enter a massive competition with the top 5 bands (after 2 jamming sessions) joining the Technical bands in a showdown to the final 2.  The final 2 bands will each battle it out playing The Who’s Superbowl 2010 Jam which is a mix of ‘Who are you’, ‘Wont get fooled again’ and ‘Baba O’Riley’.

The song is 15 minutes long and is a test of endurance and skill!

Happy Days!

You will be needing your grades for that and you can get this from your report or from me in class.

I hope to do this task this week with both my lovely S3 classes.

 

After that, go HERE for a reward.

Whilst surfing the iPhone App store I discovered a cracking Design & Technology iPhone/iPod Touch application. I have been waiting ages for someone to do this and it’s great. It’s almost as good as having the official course notes in your pocket.

It I suitable for pupils on our C&D and Product Design courses.

It costs £1.19 in the App Store and promises regular updates. Just look in the EDUCATION section or search for D & T.

If you have the app on your phone or touch let me know – it means you can have it out on your desk during class.
