5 Steps to Creating a Luxurious Backyard Studio

Blog

Home on the Range was a rather disappointing final entry into Disney's traditional hand drawn animated canon. It lacks the depth and emotion that films like Lilo and Stitch and Brother Bear possessed. The song "Home on the Range" is the official state song of Kansas. The words came from a poem written by homesteader Dr. Brewster Higley in 1873 and later set to music by his friend Daniel E. Kelley. 1. Invest in a Sound System As working from home becomes a more commonplace and necessary part of the workforce during the pandemic, it can be challenging to balance the needs of a hectic family life with the demands of a full-time job. A backyard studio can provide a dedicated space where you can focus on your work and…

Cloud Computing

Apps

I was told the other day that within the next couple years we would be saying goodbye to the school based server and back-ups. Initially, I was quite impressed. ‘Wow! Are schools moving to cloud storage services now?” I thought. This seemed a big move but I could see the advantages … and the potential pitfalls. In discussion with our school techy, this potential move to cloud storage was reigned in somewhat! There may be issues with what classified information can be stored off-site, especially if not held on servers in the UK. Ok .. one to look into. Also, any cloud computing is reliant on the speed and quality of the broadband connection. I can just imagine 14 classroom PCs all trying to access files, watch videos, download materials at…

Filtering on iPads

Apps

Most schools have broadband providers who include high quality internet filtering services as part of their service. This is very important and limits what children can access on the school PCs. However, it should be noted that the filtering offered doesn’t necessarily work on iPads. We found it beneficial to set up each iPad as we would for an individual device – using the options in the restrictions section of the settings menu. If anyone else has encountered similar issues or has another solution, please do let us know.

Which tablets should we invest in?

Apps

We decided to invest in iPads about two years ago. Has this been a good decision? Having been through the implementation of tablet computing in a primary school, I’d say that things have gone smoothly on the whole. The advantage of going with iPad was that most staff members are very familiar with the operating system – owning iPhones! This means that little time has been designated to training for the staff or pupils – bonus! There are a wide variety of good quality apps and a volume licensing system which can mean significant savings on multiple app purchasing. The quality of the devices is good and they have survived two years worth of use with few problems. The key feature of the successful implementation is to build up an…

Should schools have an IT Suite?

IT

This is a question that comes up regularly in courses I attend. The answer from the ‘people in the know’ is usually “No.” The key reason for this seems to be the assumption that schools are stuck in the dark ages of the 1990s where the only use of technology was an hour each week timetabled and rigid! Of course, this is not how technology should be taught or used to enhance learning. That said, I believe that if used correctly, the IT Suite is still a very valuable facility to have in school. Let’s consider the advantages of a Suite: it is a room, inevitably with hard-wired PCs or laptops which tend to work more reliably than some laptop trolleys, they don’t run out of charge and can be set…
