“ an amazing opportunity to gain an insight into the one of the most promising medical technologies“
(yr. 13 student)
“discussing poetry with undergraduates
really made us think” (yr. 12 student)
“having an expert ‘in school’
was a fantastic experience" (yr. 13 student)
“ability to discuss with students from
other schools, particularly girls” (yr. 12 student)
How we have been using VC at ICHS
• Bringing French alive through
linking classrooms
• Joining School Councils
across the borough
• Discussing Paralympic Legacy-from New York
• Meeting authors
• Lab to Lab VC using a borrowed 2nd Kit
We need more opportunities to link live via video to
global experts and companies.
We need to bring them into our classrooms to
enhance learning opportunities and to widen
experiences for our students in every subject area.
We need more companies and content providers to
offer secure, reliable, high-quality video conferencing.
