Bee-Bot VC Showcase

3/6/2011

Hi Auburn North,

There was great excitement in the Library yesterday as students and their teachers took part in a Video Conference to showcase the learning they have been doing this term with Bee-Bots.

We listened as other schools such as Auburn, Westmead, Turramurra North and Burraga shared their experiences and then it was our turn to demonstrate and share our learning.

Thanks to Sue Fennell, Project Officer from Macquarie ICT Innovations Centre, for coordinating the project.

Video Conferencing...5/4 M Style!

Hello Auburn North!!

What do you get when you combine spinning DJs, crazy news presenters, juicy Hollywood gossip and a dancer who is always changing costumes?

5/4M's very own spectacular version of 'Auburn North Primary News', that's what you get!!
The class had loads of fun preparing their individual news segments, rehearsing and of course performing their news presentation to 5B and 5L. They even performed for 6C and 6L!
What was the highlight of their performance?
Besides receiving lots of positive comments from the audience, the highlight of the performance was most definitely the crazy antics of the news presenters, James Bruce and Melinda Gordon, and one of a kind dance moves displayed by the crazy dancer!
Here are some photos of their performance... Enjoy.

What was your favourite moment?

Hi Auburn North,

Stage 3 has had a whole lot of fun video conferencing between the ANTEC and Library this term.

The classes have been learning about 'Current Events' so Stage 3's very clever teachers came up with the idea to create a news broadcast that students would present LIVE to the studio audience watching in the Library!

5B, 6L, 5L and 6C have produced hilarious, fun- filled, action-packed news items including local, national and international news, interviews, ad breaks, fashion shows, weather reports, celebrity gossip, dance items and sports reports...to name a few!

6C added a new segment to their live broadcast in the form of the Biography Channel. They pre- recorded an interview with our Principal, Mr Harris, and included it in their VC.

The reporters (journalists) Noor, Mohammad and Gerald asked Mr Harris fantastic questions such as:

What's the best thing about being a Principal?
What is the worst thing about being a Principal?
What job would you have chosen if you weren't a school Principal?
What do you do in your spare time?

If you missed the VC you can watch the 'Biography Channel' and 6C’s interview here. (The link is FINALLY active!)

If you were a reporter, what questions would you ask Mr Harris?

What have you enjoyed about video conferencing?
What segments did you find entertaining?
What have you learned?

I am looking forward to watching 5/4 M's broadcast on Thursday and then 6T's the following. I wonder what creative gems they will come up with.

And that's all we have time for. Be sure to tune in again soon!
I'm Mrs Clift
Goodnight
