Textease CT workshop series kicks-off in South Gloucestershire

Thanks to Doug Dickinson for leading the first of three hands-on seminars in South Gloucestershire this month.
Today’s hosts were The Manor CEVC Primary School in Coalpit Heath. Most of the teachers had never seen Textease before but within minutes Doug had them playing with text-to-speech, as well as recording their own audio files and embedding them into their own images in a multimodal style.
The introduction of kinetic calligrams paved the way for everyone to make their own animations including a ‘my local area’ geography journey to school activity and even a sophisticated scientific model of the Moon and Earth orbiting the Sun. The complete set of Textease CT stepthrough guides are available here.
The dates and venues for the final two sessions are:
- Monday 19th November - St Ann’e CE VC Primary School, Oldland Common, BS30 6PH
- Thursday 29th November - St Michael’s CE VC Primary School, Stoke Gifford, Ratcliffe Drive, Stoke Gifford, BS34 8SG.
If you’re a South Gloucestershire school who would like to participate please contact Sue Morgan from the Local Authority who has kindly been making arrangements for these sessions.
Look out for audio and video uploads from these sessions to complete your Textease CPD!
