A way for computer club members to demonstrate the concepts and skills they have learned is to create their own presentations for other students in the school. Teachers can help by giving the students access to the equipment they need and providing support as needed. Students can find a suitable space for the assembly, gather the projectors and video players they will need and create a compelling presentation that includes animation, audio and visual elements.
Setting up a wireless network gives students real hands-on experience, and creating a wireless training lab is a way for computer club members to learn new skills. A wireless training lab is a way for schools to make use of limited resources and limited space, since the equipment can simply be put back into place, as it is needed. Computer club members will need to have the necessary equipment, including a high-speed Internet connection, wireless router and wireless adapters for the computer. This equipment may be provided by the school, and the computer club members can set it all up.
Training materials are important to any school, but some of those training materials can be quite dull and boring. Computer club members can relieve that boredom by creating compelling training materials that incorporate screen shots, audio and even embedded videos. Creating training materials for the various types of software and hardware used throughout the school will let teachers get up to speed quickly, and creating those training materials will give students the skills they need to compete in the workplace when school is over. After that first guide has been completed, each member of the computer club can tackle a new training manual.
Learning how to present complex information in a readable and user-friendly format is a big part of the business world. Students can learn the importance of information presentation by creating their own computer club newspaper. The newspaper can be both online and hard copy. It teaches website construction and desktop publishing.
