Hi everyone,
Jacquie asked me how it went with the new CD's on the day of the bagrut.
I can tell you all that it was perfect. A month before the exam we got a 
paper from the ministry showing us ahead of time the different tracks for 
each module (where the text is ie: lines 1-4 and then track 7 question 1-4). 
I gave the kids who came with CD players a copy of this paper so they could 
know exactly where to go.
The response of the students with CD's was really good. It made everything 
much more simple and the level of their frustration was much lower. I felt 
sorry for the kids who didn’t show up with a CD player and came with a 
regular tape.
I congratulate the English inspectorate for a job well done on these CD's!!! 
touché.
Now comes the time to a further improvement - a secured site of the ministry 
where mp3 files will be uploaded with the different modules. The students 
come with their mp3 players and in a matter of minutes while the tests are 
being distributed to the students the files can be uploaded to their mp3 
players. This will save an enormous amount of money.
However, until that day comes... this year's bagrut CD's was such an 
improvement. Thank you to everyone who was involved in the making of this 
improvement and I think there's a lot to say to this list because this 
business started in a conversation here on Etni. And of course thank you to 
Judy Steiner.
