Video unit: a pupil's work
Hello!
I just want to wish you a happy summer!.
Here I show you one of the last works my pupils did. This is a very good one (if you consider they had very few time).
You can also go to the pupil's ICT blog, and have a look to the work they've been doing this year, at the ICT pluri in 4-ESO.

Computer science part of English Baccalaureate
Computer science will now become part of a group of core subjects measured in league tables
By Sean Coughlan BBC News education correspondent
Computer science is going to become part of the English Baccalaureate - one of the measures used in school league tables in England.
The English Baccalaureate (EBacc) requires pupils to get good GCSE grades in English, maths, sciences, history or geography and a language.
Technology firms have been calling for a bigger role for studying computing.
Microsoft's education director Steve Beswick welcomed the announcement as the "start of a journey" in changing how computer science is taught.
He wants the subject to be taught to even younger children, including in primary school.
A Google spokeswoman said this "marks a significant further investment in the next generation of British computer scientists".

Google Data Center... this is the Cloud!!!
You can see it at.... Google Official Blog
Very few people have stepped inside Google’s data centers, and for good reason: our first priority is the privacy and security of your data, and we go to great lengths to protect it, keeping our sites under close guard. While we’ve shared many of our designs and best practices, and we’ve been publishing our efficiency data since 2008, only a small set of employees have access to the server floor itself.
Today, for the first time, you can see inside our data centers and pay them a virtual visit. On Where the Internet lives, our new site featuring beautiful photographs by Connie Zhou, you’ll get a never-before-seen look at the technology, the people and the places that keep Google running.
In addition, you can now explore our Lenoir, NC data center at your own pace in Street View. Walk in the front door, head up the stairs, turn right at the ping-pong table and head down the hall to the data center floor. Or take a stroll around the exterior of the facility to see our energy-efficient cooling infrastructure. You can also watch a video tour to learn more about what you're viewing in Street View and see some of our equipment in action.
Finally, we invited author and WIRED reporter Steven Levy to talk to the architects of our infrastructure and get an unprecedented look at its inner workings. His new story is an exploration of the history and evolution of our infrastructure, with a first-time-ever report from the floor of a Google data center.
Fourteen years ago, back when Google was a student research project, Larry and Sergey powered their new search engine using a few cheap, off-the-shelf servers stacked in creative ways. We’ve grown a bit since then, and we hope you enjoy this glimpse at what we’ve built. In the coming days we’ll share a series of posts on the Google Green Blog that explore some of the photographs in more detail, so stay tuned for more!
