Evaluation of Sesssion

Once you have the definitive response to a fact, something composed as a wiki that has been thoroughly reviewed I’d then like to see this thinking, initially just in words, animated via a slider, the kind of volume control we’re used to seeing, only this, instead of increasing the volume of sound, increases the number of words.
 
<img title=”Text Volume Control” alt=”Text Volume Control drawn in Dia” src=”http://learn.open.ac.uk/mod/portfolio/file.php/share-attachments/1fdb255cedd7b0b67138a5db98f75198.jpeg” />
 
In this way you choose your moment to read a bit, a bit more, or a lot, the whole thing, and or everything (in theory) that went through the author’s mind when they wrote their chapter/boo/report in the first place by having not just the links, but the references open and ready to read in an instance.
Indulgent?
The expert mind does this anyway. By the time you’ve read so extensively on a subject that you hear its authors speaking, you tap into a form of this. You could at any moment offer a summary, or talk for hours on ‘your’ subject.
I would like this opportunity from the start, from the point of ignorance, to nudge back and forth, to ‘rock n roll’ as a soundengineer would put it, finding the point to cut a sound track, the ‘sweet point’ for where I was at, where enough was being said to engage me … or, were I about to alight from a train, a bitsize thought on which I could chew ’til the opportunity arose to indulge and nudge this ‘text volume control’ along the scale.
Now think of this as a slice in a pie.

Open it out and you migrate away from text alone to include stills, video and sound. For example, the image-based expression of this concept, and a particular issue/idea/fact/report, begins with a single image, like a book cover, or TV title sequence … as you run along our ‘volume control’ the number and range of images expands.
Just a thought.

T3T4 Wednesday 1 hour 29 SEPT 2010

Unable to start until 19.05 while pool is set up. Use the time to take the register and run through the session. Put to them the idea of a gala for T3 swimmers. 25m and 50m swims, some fun ones, with medals. Would be later in November, probably a Monday or Thursday at OHH. Evenly split over the day, some non-plussed.
21 swimmers, only one late. Mixed standard from approx Grade 5 teaching Group to Grade 7. None have fly, some have problems with breaststroke, most, though not all, can keep up with sets based around 50m.

Placed them in lanes based on my wishes, not theres. May have to split up the 15/16 boys where most of the disruption lies. (Only swimming 25m, mucking as soon as they swim in, making excuses to go to the toilet, just whimping out). One swimmer insited on needing the toilet after 5 mins and then vanished for 10 mins. Never again.

Warm Up

4 x 50 FC Smooth, low stroke count, later all roll. 1.15/1.30
4 x 50 BC Smooth, rolling the shoulder 1.30
Steady flutter kick

Main Set

1 x 100 IM Lane clear. i.e 25m at a time, each stroke

IM Order Drill

4 x 25 Fly Single Arm Lane Clear
Clear demonstration required after each 25m before they some of them started to get it right. Many don’t have the kick or undulation. Would work better with fins but we have none at the Triangle.

4 x 25m BC with instructions each 50m as they couldn’t get the roll shoulder through 90 degrees drill.

2 x 50m BR with an extended glide of 2 seconds

2 x 50m FC Zip Up drill (drawing the thumb along the side of the body during the recovery).

1 x 100m IM lane clear

Relays in teams of five.

FC
BR
Medley

Swim Down

200m Easy (ideally on FC and BC)

No time for a swim down, but the lack of effort makes me wonder if one is required. In truth, they should be in the habit of doing a swim down. This can be an opportunity for ‘play time’ where they swim a lane or two extremely slowly chatting to friends 😦

Need to address the basics to correct lateral deviation, cycling legs, straight arm recovery on FC, bent arm recovery on BK and breathing to the ceiling.

Kick drills

Fly so poor why bother? Work on kick with fins.

Compatible with Grade 6 and up in Teaching Groups
