Title: Instructions for the Teacher
Course: Informàtica 4t ESO v2 ang > Section: Topic 1. We Are a Startup

Teacher

Please consider:

Regarding the Video:

The introductory video to the topic must make it possible to introduce the students to the startup topic and encourage a subsequent reflection on the basics needed to make a feasible product. The factors raised in the video are essentially the ones the students will work on throughout the year: creation of the groups, generation of ideas, business model, funding and opportunity in time. A reflection and classroom discussion is therefore needed regarding what they have understood and what they think of the matters raised.

The second video briefly explains the features and potential of Google Drive at the personal and group level.

Regarding the Personal Account and Google Drive Space:

Students must have a Gmail account to follow the proposed activities. The account will let them access all Google Apps and sign up to web 2.0 Apps that require an account to use.

To avoid students having to sign up individually, the school can ask for its own free account as part of the G Suite for Education service.

Management of student and teacher accounts can be via an administrator who will assign and control them. This service can ensure data security and privacy and track the use made of the account. The process is simple and also provides for a large number of accounts, customisable with the name of the school.

The students must have signed permission from their parents/tutors to engage in this activity. The Ministry of Education has the following links to access the proposed document models:
