Case Study 1:
Using ICT to Present and Exchange Ideas

Before You Start…
Welcome to the Swansea Bay Online Learning Partnership case study series for teachers of PE. Before you start work on this case study, you will need to ensure that you have confidence in using the skills and ICT packages the case study uses.

The most important packages to be comfortable with before you start the case study are:

  • A word processor, ideally Word version 6 or higher - you should be able to create, save and print simple documents with Word.
  • The Internet - you should be able to get onto the Internet, use one or more of the common search engines, and understand how Internet addresses are formed.
  • E-mail - you should understand how to send, receive and reply to e-mails.
  • A presentation package, ideally Microsoft PowerPoint - you should be able to create, save and print simple presentations with PowerPoint.

If you do not feel comfortable with any of the above, please refer to your skills-check and discuss with your mentor the best way of getting your skills ready before you start. If you are missing just one of the skills, and you are happy to develop it while you are working on the case study, go ahead with the next part. In particular, the use of email or a presentation package is optional in this case study.
