We're half way through Equality and Diversity week

We are now half way through Equality and Diversity week at Tameside College and so far its been brilliant! There have been so many staff and students involved in so many different activities its hard to know where to start.

This morning there was a screening of a film called 'life in a day' which has been mentioned in previous posts. The film is all about what it was like to be alive on the 24th July 2010 from the perspective of film makers all over the world.

Diane King of Tameside LGBT a local group which focuses on LGBT issues and support paid us a visit to hold a stall in the refectory, answering any questions and helping to raise awareness of their cause.

Then their was the Volleyball and Boccia session in the sports hall. Volleyball involves two teams who have to hit a ball over a net and whichever team hits the other teams area the most wins. However this wasn't ordinary Volleyball. For Equality and Diversity Week we added a twist, Sitting Volleyball. The sport is available to disabled and non-disabled people alike and the rules are very similar to ordinary Volleyball except you must keep at least one part of your lower body on the ground. The students soon took to it and many were pro's near the end! Boccia another sport designed for people to play in wheelchairs. The aim of the game is to throw leather balls coloured red or blue (which side gets which is determined by a coin toss) as close as they can to a white target ball, or jack. The winner is the one who gets the closest.

Facebook Banner

Today I have been working on a new banner for the College's Facebook to replace the current open evening one when it finishes next Thursday. The new banner includes photographs of students from the current prospectus and includes the made in tameside stamp which is a part of the Colleges brand. I have also been posting about the Colleges Art and Design Department blog which has recently been updated with some fantastic pieces of work by students working on their projects. Plus I have been writing all the tweets and Facebook posts to go out over the weekend for Matt's race (the Coniston 14) telling people to look out for live updates on his position and the route etc.

Where Am I Now and Photosynth

Today I have been creating another competition for the #whereamInow campaign that I have been running on Hyde Clarendons Twitter page for the last few weeks. The objective of the campaign is to make people more aware of where students can go on to after they have left the College. Therefore I have designed a Twitter campaign that involves a photo of a different university for each competition with the caption e.g coventry university is just one of our learner desitinations, re-tweet for the chance to win a £25 Trafford Centre voucher. This means that the College not only gets the message that we want to portray to people who have followed us but also people who are following the Colleges followers. Plus we can get a photograph of the winner being given the prize to put on Twitter too. I have also been writing posts for Google+ using the latest news from the College's website and creating a photosynth which is what I was writing about yesterday (basically a 3D view of something from lots of different angles in one image that you can scroll across) for the College. I have come up with several ideas for how I am going to do it and what I am going to do it of but haven't decided which to use yet.
