TBC1.5

Our class today was a lot quieter. A few of them worked on power point presentations. Others on Excel and still others on typing and saving files.

Unfortunately, due to a malfunctioning camera, we don't have photos today. In all, we had 7 students today and some of them are making very good progress. Some of the students have finished all the activities that I covered in 8 classes in under 5 classes. Although it does not lend itself to a structured class, having activity sheets and allowing students to progress at their own speed has resulted on a few of them finishing the course content easily.

This has been a bane and boon. On one side, it has forced us to create new activity sheets on a regular basis. On the other hand, it is becoming increasingly difficult to cater to the needs of students without getting into things which are rather advanced and should probably not find a place in a basic computer literacy course.

Instructors: 1
Participants: 6 (Lynne, Hakima Kur, Eamon, Kumuthini, Kokhila, Ariet )
