    Hi all l am looking for 6 hours of enrichment activities for Year 12. All will be doing 4 A Levels and a small number of these will be doing A Level Applied ICT. At least half will have completed CiDA - Enterprise Unit and Using ICT unit. Here are my thoughts
    • Lesson 1 - Creating a blog
    • Lesson 2 - Using advanced features of Outlook
    • Lesson 3 - Creating a contents page in Microsoft Word
    • Lessons 4-6 Maybe a set of pick and mix tasks that depend on the AS level subjects that hey are studying. For instance, Flash web banners for ICT students, Writing formulae sheet with Microsoft Equation for maths students, Creating statistical graphs for Economics/Business studies students,
    I would obviously need to liaise with subject staff for Lessons 4-6.Any thoughts on the above or suggestions for better ideas? Goes without saying that I would be willing to share my resources ;0))

    No, no, no! Web sites have to be done in Publisher.

     Get them to write a program to investigate the Mony Hall problem:

    I.e. get them to do computer scientists maths - don't prove it properly, just throw lots of computational time at the problem and see what happens.
