A. Getting ready

Ensure that you can login to your @vjc.sg email account.

You will need the following for home based learning.

  1. Computer, either a desktop or notebook
  2. Network connection
  3. Speakers (preferably ear phones)
  4. Microphone - most people can talk faster than they can type
  5. Flash installed
  6. Tablet - optional

What if I don't have all these? For this exercise, you may want to consider going to your classmates house for home based learning. But do take note in the event of a school closure, your classmate or his/her parents may not welcome you. Also seek your own parents' permission to go to your classmate's home.

For students who are welcoming their classmates, do remember to seek permission from your parents. Not more than one other classmate.

To check that you have the right software, refer to the briefing slides.

Your tutor may arrange to have a session with you one night or over this weekend.  

B. Learning how to use Dimdim

These are some video tutorials to help you get started.

 

C. 26 Feb whole day

Actual day of scheduled Home Based Learning. Please check your @vjc.sg email for emails from your tutors on where to go.
