Digital Badges for Safety Tests

Posted on by Mr Sully

Getting ready for 2016? Thinking about safety tests for your students? Perhaps using digital badges to foster engagement and keep the momentum going as you plough through that dry but absolutely necessary WHS material. I created these earlier in the year for my school and thought I’d place them here for others to build on.

These badges were made using Adobe Illustrator (saved as CS4). I’ve removed my schools details and locked all the layers except for the text where you should place your own details. Feel free to download them and use them as is or unlock the layers and change them totally.

If you make any new designs and want to share, I’d love to see what you have done.

Above is the poster I used around the school to get students motivated for the badges. Click on it to download the ZIP file which contains all the badges and the poster and have fun.

Posters from J7

Posted on by Mr Sully

Hey you! Yeah you! Are you re-modelling your bedroom these holidays? Do you want it to look more like the J7 Woodwork room? Probably not but perhaps you’re a fellow Industrial Arts teacher well here are some posters for your room. I made these a several years ago to explain a couple of simple formulas and where, why you would use them. Feel free to download and use them in your classroom (or bedroom).

Wall quotes

Posted on by Mr Sully

Some of you may have noticed the occasional quote from Kurt Cobain to Dr Seuss around the school recently, if you haven’t well keep your eyes peeled. If you have a positive quote, interesting fact, well anything that may brighten someones day or make someone pause and think for a moment. Then post it in the comment section of this article. Feel free to add a location or room as to where you may like to see this and maybe it can happen.

J7 goes PBL!

Posted on by Mr Sully

A new safety sign promoting Mudgee High Schools PBL drive has been installed in J7, why? and how is it different from a regular safety sign? Well safety has always been our first priority and safe behavior will always look the same. So it shouldn’t be about catching you doing the wrong thing but about telling you why we do the right thing. Be Safe, Responsible & Respectful.

Safe, Responsible & Respectful

New door signage

Posted on by Mr Sully

With the thanks of our recently purchased Roland Vinyl Cutter, no longer will students get lost looking for Technology rooms J4, J5, J6 and J7 as they are now correctly and clearly marked (colour coded also BTW). Please let someone in the Technology Faculty know if there are any other incorrectly or unidentified areas of the school, we’re here to help.

Never miss a detention reminder ever again!

More new signage

Posted on by Mr Sully

Last year some visitors were in the school during one of our emergency procedure drills (a lockdown). Unfortunately our signage was a little difficult for someone new to quickly understand (you know, in an emergency). Well J7 is the first room to get one of the new emergency procedure signs which have been fully produced by the Technology Faculty using skills, software and techniques covered in many of our subjects, especially in our Graphics courses. Anyone with an interested in layout, design or a thinking of a future in a creative industry should seriously consider choosing Graphics Technology. Oh, and imagine how schmick your next assignment or folio could be with a little extra insider knowledge.

Accuracy is the key

Posted on by Mr Sully

Every student who does Industrial Arts understands the importance of working from a cutting list. J7 now has a dedicated cutting list which will hang on the wall. Keep an eye on it, work on your accuracy, it will make a difference in the quality of your finished projects. Remember what all good tradies know …

Measure twice, cut once
