Three peers. One hope. One dream.

To make the best radio interview ever…

Well…we got close….*shifty eyes*

In our radio interview, however, we chose to talk about the topic of the usefulness of network systems in our schools.

We included a range of questions, including how effective network systems are in our schools and how the presence of network systems affects school work of Kogarah High School students. We discussed the relationship between computer network systems to education and literacy levels of the students of our school. We also debated on the advantages and disadvantages of network systems while keeping the interview at a typical “Kyle and Jackie O Show” radio style.

We interviewed the delightful pair of Brendan and Bruce from Year 10 to speak with us on this topic. While Brendan was very approving of computer network systems (listen to the podcast..you’ll understand), they both had a lot to share with us.

Enjoy!

interview 2

This podcast is based on the topic “Why are computer games prohibited at schools”.  We chose this topic because this topic is the most significant topic at schools.  As we all know game websites are blocked at schools as well as some other websites that are not useful for education. In our podcast radio assignment you will find some questions being asked that any student might be wondering  such as why game  websites are prohibited at school.  The questions we asked were answered by a teacher from school:  Mrs. Ahern.  We will also ask a student some questions, from there I hope you guys will enjoy our work and hopefully get all the answers and information that is important for all the students and teachers based on the topic “why computer games are prohibited at schools”.

    School “IT” Podcast 

We were given to interview a teacher about the theme ‘The careers in information technology’. The interview is about the role and importance of IT. We talked about demands of IT and how vast the IT industry is. We also discussed what the future possibilities of IT are.

This will be useful for student who are struggling to achieve thier goal at school and may decide to consider a job in the real world. We talked about jobs they might be interested in e.g. Computer Technician, Project analyst etc.

 The main aim of this interview program is to encourage students to pursue their career in IT, considering the fact that the demand of IT at present is significantly high. 

Help Us, Help Them

The theme is ‘The role of information technology in our school’. We are creating radio news coverage. The storyline is as follows. We, as students from Kogarah High School will be promoting a fundraising charity case to a school in Cambodia who live in a region suffering from extreme poverty.

This fundraising will allow the school to purchase information technology. We will travel there, interview an English teacher and one of his students about how they felt about receiving these generous donations. We will be asking questions about how information technology will be productive, resourceful and influential in their society.

In Australia, information has greatly revolutionized schooling life and we should not take it for granted. Thus, this radio news coverage is hoping to persuade the general public that schools in Cambodia should have the privilege of being exposed to information technology.
