Group activity
• As a group – Research one area of Nottingham, focussing on
local businesses and shops. Present your findings to tutors on
Friday am. You will each be given a specific area of Nottingham
to research.
• Think about your audience and what they might need to know
about the different area of Nottingham. You are now Design and
Technology Education students (so a good knowledge of where
to buy materials, get inspiration, research consumers, identify
problems etc). Also remembering that your audience may have
just moved to Nottingham and needs to know where to go out,
take visitors, shop etc.
• Consider how you will present your information (wiki, digital
photos, text, hyperlinks, power point etc.) The final resource
needs to be electronic so that it can be stored in the NOW (VLE)
area.
