FROG JOBS
Student vacancies at de Ferrers – “helping to build your learning platform”
We are looking for several students interested in the following Frog VLE opportunities:
SPORTS REPORTERS
We need a few students on each campus – girls & boys – to manage the new sports pages on the VLE. You might be reporting on big matches & college successes, interviewing upcoming de Ferrers sports stars or deciding who was ‘man (or woman) of the match’.
NEWS CREW
Want to be a journalist? This could be your chance…we need a crew of reporters to produce our own VLE news area – local, national & world issues. We will start with an online website/magazine and some radio reports and hopefully move into video reports when we get our permanent green-screen room. You might even become the editor and write your own blog…
RADIO STATION TEAM
de Ferrers is getting our own web-based radio station and we need more of you guys to help! Recording jingles and music, our own audio soap, beauty tips, fashion help & homework advice – we need volunteers to help us do these things.
FROG AGENTS
As we expand our learning platform and bring in more student voice, we will need help with building widgets & webpages, managing users and moderating the forums. Frog Agents will do this – we need people who are responsible and resilient with good ICT skills, that want to learn more about managing VLEs.
GAMES DESIGNERS
In the near future, we would like to assemble a small group of Y10-Y13 students with strong ICT skills to develop curriculum learning games, initially using some Flash templates. These games can then help students across the college with revision and making progress in a range of subjects.
If you are interested, please submit your detailsvia the VLE ‘jobs’ page and we will get back to you, or e-mail: frog@deferrers.com.
If there is a lot of interest then we may ask you for some further details, including what you think could bring to the job.
