Digital Leaders 2015 Applications.

As it is January, it is time to begin the process of appointing our Digital Leaders. Last year was the first year we introduced Digital Leaders and it was a huge success as the children got the chance to develop their leadership skills. They helped to promote and inspire ICT in our school by teaching groups of children, implementing e-safeguarding, reviewing technologies and encourage others to use ICT more effectively.

This year there will be responsibilities added to the position of Digital Leader.  Children will have to present information to parents regarding E-Safety, monitor the use of iPad apps across the whole school and help with the planning and organistion of Minecraft across the school.

To be considered for interview stage, the children have had to answer the following questions.

1. Why do you want to become a Digital Leader?

2. Give an example of something that you are responsible for at home or in school.

3. What skills do you have that would make you a good Digital Leader?

4. What is your favourite thing about ICT either at home or at school?

Take a look at the children's applications in the comments section below.

Check in again to see who has made it to interview stage.

    1.I want to become a digital leader because I enjoy helping younger children on the iPads and hopefully teach them well enough so that they can hopefully teach their friends!
    2.In school I am a pupil council member so I feel that I am good at taking part in group work and listening to other opinions, At home I am responsible with doing the house work.
    3.I have talking and listening skills so I could explain tasks or help with coding skills, I think I have quite a lot of patience so if it takes time for a younger pupil to understand coding or indeed MineCraft I would listen to them and help them to learn a bit quicker.
    4.At school our ICT is progressing a lot we have recently purchased more iPads and have computers in every class but my favourite thing about ICT at school is all the learning apps on the iPads my personal favourite is GamePress. GamePress is a coding app were you get to make your own games like Mario Brothers! Also I love that on the computers that we all get a chance to play MineCraft and we recently built our classroom, compass, Eiffel Tower and an indoor swimming pool! Lastly we all love to use Explain Everything . This app is a power point like app, you can use text , record your voice and draw ! We used it to explain to the year 5 pupils how to do inverse division.
