Summary of the First Week (ii)

We had an 'ice breaker' exercise to introduce ourselves, where you learned that I won the North West Senior Open Judo Championships 2006 at U81 kilos, among other things!
We watched a video on General PC Security issues, and briefly mentioned issues like anti-virus, firewalls and phishing.
We will cover these issues in greater detail soon.

We also were introduced to the school / C2K Email system.
You had to log in (www.c2kni.net > Learning Services for Schools > Email ) and send me an email.
We discussed the various parts of the interface (inbox, folders, contacts, tasks, calendar) , and what an email was made up of (Address fields: To, CC, BCC. Subject, Attachments & Main Body).

You had to begin creating a simple User Guide for a Y11 pupil, showing them how to use the school email system. You were to take screenshots of the process and then explain these in a Word document.
We didn't get time to finish this, but will return to it when everyone has their web / email access sorted out.
