Ayrton Senna ICT project- by Lars Heidrich and Abdul Butt
my inspiration for choosing Senna as my topic was that i have always been interested by his life and career and wanted to find out some more, then being able to share this with others as well.
in order to make the video we used a variety of websites to gather information which we then used to make a sound file. this was played in the background of a number of videos put together using imovie.
i worked mostly on preparing the script while Abdul put together the videos. Working together in this method, it did not take too long to finish the project- only a couple hours. fortuantely, I did not face any major problems during making the project although finding a compatible sound file type was slightly annoying.

just a mashup of a number of songs
remixes and mashups that got taken down
i don't know many however i did hear that youtube takes some videos down, normally due to copyright but occasionally it doesn't seem to provide a helpful reason why it was taken down
also, on soundcloud, any copyrighted material is immediately taken down
The Value Of Things One Learns In School In Later Life
We go to a place called school everyday but sometimes, during that lesson you really hate, do you ever wonder what really is the point?
Some may wonder at the seemingly pointless knowledge about Latin, Ancient Greek or other, now dead languages. For others the complexities of the ever changing "x" of mathematics may be beyond care, and yet others still may go mad trying to while away the hours as while a teacher talks endlessly about some random battle in some random war in yet another piece of random history.
But seriously, how much of what you learn in school will truly help in later life? Too many times it seems to me, that people mention how they have forgotten most of what they did for a certain A-level; it never having been useful for their careers or otherwise. While of course one can not expect to be able to use everything that you learn at school, does it not seem strange that for some, the grades are just the way to get to university where you then learn what you then actually need to know.
I think there must be some level to which, we unknowingly do make use of the extensive "store" of knowledge that school provides us with and that in our social lives, our interaction with people of different cultures, careers and lifestyles it allows us to act appropriately and make varied acquaintances and friendships .
"the guts of the car you drive would be familiar to Henry Ford". I think this is an interesting point made by Matt Edgar as it shows how a lot of the technology we consider to be new is actually simply much older technology that has been only slightly modified to make it into what it is today. It seems commonplace to think that the technology around us is all brand new and that one or two generations ago there was next to nothing of this technology around. This quote reminds us how ignorant one can become if you are not careful and think carefully about what you are talking about.
