Mentoring Program

July 8, 2009 · Leave a Comment

Many students have joined the Design and Technology Mentoring program offered by way of the website www.designandtechhelp.com.

Lots of students have asked me why have I offered my time so cheaply, other coaching schemes cost hundreds of dollars?

“My aim is to put information out there!” the small amount received covers the cost for software web operating costs.

If you need help even at this late stage please email me on technology1@exemail.com.au

All the best with your project

regards

Colin

Someone once said that “the only constant thing in this world is change.”  As the world is about change  I thought it was time to upgrade the Design and Technology website. I have included a free site to help students prepare their folios, a competition to win a copy of my  Design and Technology eBook, and advertising space. If I am a little slow to respond to your emails please forgive me. At times there are large volumes of emails  and complex issues requiring a little research on my part. Can I say, please do research yourself I can not be expected to do the lot!

It is after all your project.

best wishes

Thank you for your comments about the Design and TechnologyeBook

June 28, 2008 · Leave a Comment

My intention when I originally wrote the eBook was to put practical information in the hands of students. Information about how to avoid the mistakes other people have made, how best to display your project for marking.

One teacher from overseas who purchased the eBook put it this way in an email to me ” when it comes to practical information on how to display your MDP there is nothing to assist students. Keep up the find work and look forward to more from you”. I really appreciate this feedback folks.
