ISM  Plato:    Ms.  Hannah  Ge2el  

•  ISM  Plato  is  the  new  electronic  agenda  system  to  support  students  to  organize  what  work  they  have  and  when  it  is  due.  

 •  Teachers  will  use  the  system  to  set  classwork  and  homework.  Teachers  

will  be  able  to  idenBfy  if    piece  of  work  is  a  graded  task  –  if  so  students  can  be  allocated  a  target  grade  and  teachers  can  give  individual  feedback  through  the  system.  

 •  The  system  is  sBll  in  the  roll-­‐out  phase,  students  are  currently  receiving  

training  on  how  to  use  the  system,  and  teachers  are  starBng  to  ensure  that  all  their  set  work  is  registered  on  the  system.  

 •  Once  the  system  is  fully  up  and  running  parents  will  receive  log  in  

details  to  be  able  to  track  their  child’s  homework  and  teacher  feedback.

The  CriBcal  Study  Students  choose  an  arBst  or  designer  to  use  for  their  study.  They  need  to  view  the  work  first-­‐hand,    which  involves  visiBng  an  exhibiBon  or  working  with  the  arBst.      They  may  produce  a  project  as  an  essay,  a  journal,  a  visual  project,  a  presentaBon  or  a  series  of  art  works.  All  research  must  be  cited.  Wri2en  work  should  include  1,500-­‐2000  words.  This  work  is  assessed  by  the  Cambridge  Board.
