It's My Business (iPad & Web Tools)
This business and enterprise project builds on the pupils’ passion for something and takes them from initial idea to a pitch to an audience ‘Dragons Den’ style
The business will be brought to life, by creating a business plan, designing logos, branding various products, creating social media adverts, producing a marketing campaign (special effects/green screening), designing a webpage and publishing it online and understanding profit and loss by using formulas in spreadsheets
Contains WAGOLLs for each business outcomes (graphics, videos, images, templates, information and presentations). These can be used to demonstrate high standards for the pupils to work towards and beyond and used by teachers to model what a great piece of work might look like.
Incorporates Information Technology and Digital Literacy
The winning business(es) can receive a ‘Business of the Year’ Award
How to ...? (iPad & Web Tools)
Includes a WAGOLL ‘How to Build a Controllable Vehicle’ guide that can be used to demonstrate high standards for the pupils to work towards and beyond and used by teachers to model what a great piece of work might look like.

The KO links to an accompanying online quiz that contains true/false, multiple choice, checkboxes and short answers. Once complete the marks are released and the quiz can be taken time and time again
Includes programming unplugged puzzle activities
The computer science focused activities build on previous programming experiences
As the project progresses there are opportunities for the pupils to be creative with the programming techniques they have learned
For each puzzle, there are possible solutions for each level and WAGOLLs that can be used to demonstrate high standards for the pupils to work towards and beyond and used by teachers to model what a great piece of work might look like.
The activities conclude with the pupils using the programming skills they have acquired to design games and test them with other pupils
Incorporates Computer Science and Information Technology skills
