For the last two weeks I have been working with tutor groups and in the IT room.
I now currently have 6 student classes which add up to about 100 students, and one teachers class of 22. Most of these students have never used a computer in their life and it is hard for me to teach such basic skills when they can hardly control the mouse! However, Will, the IT techer (Ndola) and I are working together and the student's skills are slowly improving.
In all the classes, they have been producing a basic letter to a family member/friend/teacher using Word, and a lot of the students have written letters about their past, which I find upsetting to read.
Recently we have had a problem with the server that networks all the computers together, but talking with my IT expert, Uncle Dom, it looks like it cannot be fixed.
Since then we have found some new software which allows the students to access all their own files in a folder on the network. This doesn't involve the server so is a lot better.
