Introduction and IndexHi, and welcome to "bak 2 skool".
This is a (partly fictional) journal account based on my experiences as a teaching assistant at a primary school, where I taught 8 sessions of web design as part of a final year elective at uni. This blog was created to satisfy the written report component of the elective.
The posts on this blog were written over a few days in mid-November 2005, and backdated to the dates listed. It is not meant to be a blow-by-blow account of what happened during the teaching sessions, but rather an impression of what it was like taking this elective. I have taken some creative liberty with the events that transpired, so as to present the experiences in terms of what they mean to me. Everything contained herein is based on my personal experience.
