Feedback Pupils • Michael: the benefits are that we are in control of our learning and the research that we did to produce the “TV show” allowed us to take everything in and understand all about what we were learning. • Niall: some of the benefits would be the new and great technologies and software and being able to watch the show on the internet. • Jess: the benefits are that your parents can see it and get involved with what you’re doing in school. Also, it was more fun knowing that lots of people can see it!
