IntroductionDoncaster Innovation & Media Centre, a part of CYPS, supports all schools in the borough in the areas of creative ICT, technology and media. The centre employs specialists in each area to support schools through advice, training and projects. This brochure outlines the core programmes in each area and highlights the new bespoke provision the centre is able to offer at competitive costs to Doncaster schools. We can offer more targeted programmes, details of which do not appear in this brochure. For details of this programme email [email protected]

All activities undertaken during the past seven years (as Doncaster South CLC) have been heavily subsidised for Doncaster schools. Following the review of core funding by the Department for Education, it has been necessary to introduce a charging policy to ensure continuity of our service. The nominal charges outlined in this brochure are a feature of a transitional phase to self sufficient funding. Schools will be alerted if there are further changes to provision via our website www.doncastersouthclc.net

Let’s Stick Together! ‘Bond’ with usAll activities undertaken at the CLC for the past 7 years have been heavily subsidised for Doncaster schools.

Choose from:

Annual ‘Bond’ Bronze £1200 (8 days for schools of less than 300 pupils)

Annual ‘Bond’ Silver £1800 (12 days for schools of up to 500 pupils)

Annual ‘Bond’ Gold £2500 (15 days for schools of up to and over 1800 pupils)

Charges other than by ‘Bond’:

One or two day project £180 per day

Three days £500 (This can be a mixed programme of those outlined above over 3 terms if preferred)

In 2010/11, we are pleased to offer November and December services free of charge subject to early purchase of appropriate ‘Bond’.

Pupil Engagement ProgrammeAre there students at your school at risk of being NEET in the future? Our PEP programme is a unique project funded by the European Social Fund at no extra cost to your school. We can offer 15 places during 4 sessions over the year, each course takes three weeks to complete. The outcomes include a completed NCFE qualification in creative ICT and digital media equal to two grade Bs at GCSE (96 points). We encourage participation and success regardless of their interest in a digital media career. We emphasize the development of soft skills like collaboration, problem solving and project planning.

PEP 2010-11Students should be in Year 10 or 11 and at risk of being NEET. There are 15 places per session and should be booked by appropriate course code.

Schools can complete Referral forms by email and will need to identify a liaison contact. A member of support staff can accompany students during the 4 week session (not necessarily a teacher). It is the school’s responsibility to ensure students attend the full course in order to achieve the qualification. We will need to be informed of special pupil requirements (health, SEN etc) and candidate examination details (UPN) for course registration. Registration and certification costs are covered by the project at no extra to the schools.

Places MUST be confirmed in advance via the booking form and will be allocated by those first received . It is likely that groups will consist of students of more than one school.

TV Studio - Broadcast CurriculumStudents investigate and develop their knowledge and understanding of class topic work through co-constructing learning resources. Additionally, they can take an active role using the professional equipment of video based production work. A studio day is intensive learning and revision of class work while making a digital video resource that can be used again in class or later via the web.

TV Studio for teaching & learningBring your ideas or theme to us and we will develop the appropriate format. Not all students like to perform in front of camera, we can train them to help as technical support. As a centre with extensive technology, we can offer software unavailable in schools as well as access to our TV Studio facilities for the recording of learning content and multimedia presentations. All projects are exported as DVDs for later use and sharing. Teachers can gain confidence in using video to enhance classrooms activity. Our Tricaster Broadcast system enables perfect green screening every time and even simulates 3D studio sets that add to the realism!

Examples of selected past projects:Bollywood Stories: Year 5 students script, act, choreograph and dance in two films made in a dayLaughing & Joking as They Died: Year 8 students re-enact scenes from a local man’s life using green screen as part of investigations into First World WarThe One Show (Anti-Bullying Special): Year 6 magazine show with studio pieces, dance, singing and news reportsMaths-of-the Day: Year 10 sports students identify and discuss numeracy in sport video clipsEnvironment News: Year 3 present a newscast on green issues with ways in which to reduce, reuse and recycle and ‘live’ reports from the desert, a tropical rainforest and the Antarctic using green screen.

VuTube - Broadcast CurriculumOur VuTube website is a secure online site that enables students to upload their video products to a Doncaster audience and beyond! This is a unique educational social video site that enables students to have their say and debate with their peers about subjects important to them. TV Studio work projects such as iCapture (4 schools taking part in a two-day programme), DB8@South (a live televised debate) and the E-factor (where education meets entertainment) can be shared via the social web, rated in stars or commented upon.

Idea, Plan, Create & ShareOur VuTube website is a complementary resource to our On-Location Movie boxes. As part of the Broadcast Curriculum programme, we can offer workshops in support of video content creation, the loan of video production equipment and a three-month loan of an On-Location Movie box (see information below). This is essentially a TV Studio for your school! You will be fully supported, both technically and educationally.

What we want in return is for your students to create videos that represent their voice and opinions to the outside world to enhance their communicative activity in society. A channel of the site is also present for teachers to identify the excellent programmes that take place in their schools and how individuals can transform learning. This may include: use of software, teaching methods or CPD specifics based on tools in your school.

Although the website is social in nature, allowing comments and rating stars, it is moderated by us at the centre and secure passwords protect user access.

Our future development of VuTube will include a live broadcast area and a calendar of up-coming live events!
