10. Group activity
• In pairs – Research one area of Nottingham, focussing on local businesses and shops.
Present your findings to the rest of the group (Thursday am). You will each be given a
specific area of Nottingham to research.
• Think about your audience and what they might need to know about the different area of
Nottingham. You are now Design and Technology Education students (so a good
knowledge of where to buy materials, get inspiration, research consumers, identify
problems etc). Also remembering that your audience may have just moved to Nottingham
and needs to know where to go out, take visitors, shop etc.
• Consider how you will present your information (wiki, digital photo’s, text, hyperlinks,
power point etc.) The final resource needs to be electronic so that it can be stored in the
NOW (VLE) area.
