2Investigate: Creating, Interrogating and Understanding databases

In our Upper school ICT topic recently we have been learning to create, interrogate, and understand Databases. As we used 2InvestigateOnline, one of the many program's within PurpleMash, I've written a full account of the work over on the 2SimpleTalk blog.

ICT. A new beginning?

Let's be honest. I don't like Gove. I never have done in all the time he has been secretary of state for education. He doesn't listen to advice from those who know what they are talking about, and seems intent on pushing through his own version of a flawed educational approach.

New year. New start. New attitude.

2011 - A year of unbelievable ideas, suggestions and flawed thinking from the Department of Education, and in particular from Michael Gove and his Chamber of Ofsted.
