Kerboodle

Today we're going to start a new topic - co-ordination and control, and start using kerboodle.  First of all, go to http://www.kerboodle.com/ and click login. To login, read these three points carefully:
  • Your username is you first and second names without any spaces or hyphens, so Robert Smith-Smith becomes robertsmithsmith.
  • Your password is the same as your username but with your tutor group added at the end, so that Robert Smith-Smith's in C - 05 will be robertsmithsmithC05. (if this doesn't work twice, try username:teststudent and password: teststudent0)
  • Cheney's centre number is 5166.
Once you've logged in, you can change your password by clicking on 'my accounts' in the top left corner. I've set an assignment for us to start today and hand in before next lesson.  It relates to nerves and how they work in the body.
Firstly, go to my bookshelf from the homepage and you can get an online version of the textbook from class which will help you.  Secondly, go to 'my courses' and select New AQA GCSE Science A. On the next screen, there should be a box on the left side with assignments - click on the one that says 'nerve impulses'.  Once you have this screen, click the tab on the left that says 'menu' and then on the link. This is the work that is due by Thursday (or by the lesson on Friday as a hard copy). 
Clicking on the Biology tab in the middle of the page brings up all the resources for the that section of the course.  Use the Co-ordination and control tab and the first animation - 'reflexes in action', to help you with the work.
