After following the MYP Design Cycle through Investigation of their topic; Design of their ideas for solving their problem; and Plan of action for how they'll go about making their solution, my year 10 class have finally started creating their final Relaunch solutions. I'm actually pretty excited to see some of the things that my students have designed as they've come up with a range of ideas from stop motion to phone apps to a typography video.

[/caption]It was great to watch a student using Adobe Encore for the first time (I too have never used it) and he was having trouble getting Photoshop to open the menu file to edit it. We worked together to walk through some forums online and established that Photoshop wasn't the default program for opening that type of file so he changed the association and that solved his problem.
One of my favourite quotes I overheard from today was, "Earlier this lesson, I was behind plan but now I'm all caught up." I love when the students really start to "get it" and understand the big picture of the whole project. The students have almost six more weeks until the final creations are due so it'll be interesting to watch them evolve.
I am really enjoying the theme/design of your weblog. Do you ever run into any web browser compatibility problems? A few of my blog readers have complained about my blog not operating correctly in Explorer but looks great in Chrome. Do you have any ideas to help fix this issue?
