Young Radiowaves reporters will, again, be out and about during SLF, interviewing speakers and presenters.

Pupils from 2 schools in Fife will record, edit and publish their interviews live from the SECC. The schools were chosen from the winners of the End of Term Awards 2009.

Examples of previous work

Pupils were asked to create an audio documentary about environmental issues. They scripted, recorded and edited these pieces with music and sound effects.

  • The Future is Unwritten: Rimbleton Primary School
  • Don’t Break My Heart!: Kirkcaldy High School

We look forward to hearing the results this year.

Another new function to assist you in the booking process this year.

After you have saved seminars to your wish list (using the link buttons on the right had side of the seminar web pages) go the the Wish list page. Here you should find a list of seminars that you have selected. Below the table is a link to save these details as an iCalendar file.

Once you have saved this to your own computer, you can import/upload/subscribe this file into your calendar so that you will be able to see all your bookings with their days and start times.

Unfortunately, at present, this does not work with Google Calendar, but is supported in Outlook, Hotmail Calendar, Yahoo! Calendar and 30 Boxes.

Further explanation can be found on our Online Service blog.
