The Rose Report and j2e.com
The Rose Report is an Independent Review of the Primary Curriculum by Sir Jim Rose. The question central to the report is “what should the curriculum contain and how should the content and the teaching of it change to foster children’s different and developing abilities during primary years?”
Looking through the report it can be seen that in many areas of the curriculum j2e.com is a suitable tool for use by children. This page identifies and clarifies some of those areas, to educate teachers where they could be using j2e within their classrooms.
Short extracts in grey are taken from the Rose Report, the full report can be found by following the link. The headings below are taken from the detailed sections towards the end of the report. The text in blue gives guidance as to where j2e can be used.
In summary, j2e is an on-line, creative, writing and publishing tool, that uses many media - text, pictures, shapes, animations, sound, video, links and embedded objects. All pages saved are web pages, each with a unique web address (url) which can be accessed from anywhere, by a private or public audience. With j2e collaboration and sharing tools are built in. j2e is useful across much of the curriculum, for documentation, data collection, communication, sharing and collaboration. j2e provides a creative environment, that is fun to use.
