Welcome to MyE-CnD

This is an experimental tool that we'll be using this year in class - and at home.
  • The main purposes of this tool are:
    • to waste less time in class copying stuff from the board (although that doesn't forbid you from jotting down notes or even from writing everything down if you prefer to work that way)
    • to give you access to all the lesson contents, including studied documents (texts, pictures, videos, sounds...), that will be available on this website all year round, which can be pretty useful for pupils who are - or were - away, or for pupils who always lose their school stuff...
  • My e-copybook is also an e-diary: it contains a summary of each lesson's contents and reminds you of any homework that needs to be done.
  • A specific section is dedicated to irregular verbs. Wow! That's exciting, isn't it? You can keep track of the verbs you're supposed to know off by heart, and test exactly how well you know them.
  • You'll also find your personal results, marks and assessments stored on a private page, so there won't be any end-of-term surprises.
  • Finally, as the character Ford Prefect states in Douglas Adams' "The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy" : "Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so.", so if you're feeling peckish, if you've got the nibbles and you're feeling knackered, or if you're just having difficulties concentrating on the current lesson, please keep calm, don't panic, and just take a look at the clocks on this page. You should thus hopefully come to terms with the fact that in some places of the world, we might already be tomorrow, or we could still be yesterday...
To gain access to your electronic copybook and diary you must log in at the top of the page, using your personal id and password given to you by your teacher, along with the name of your school and the name of your teacher.
