Critical Thinking
As an enrichment project, the Level 3 Extended Diploma in Health and Social Care learners are participating in critical thinking workshops, following the Paideia Method and Socratic questioning. In these workshops they critically explore different dilemmas or topics that make them question their values, beliefs, why and how they think what they think and how their power and relationships influence different situations. These workshops will also work as a way to explore their high order thinking skills and will support to further develop their academic writing skills.
““Creativity involves breaking out of expected patterns in order to look at things in a different way.” — Edward de Bono”

Covid Restrictions
Dear students, Cumbria police visited Carlisle College on Friday to say they are stepping up patrols and will issue fines to students who break the new Covid restrictions.
New rules state that you can only meet one other person at a time from another household in outdoor public places and practicing social distancing.
If you head to the city on your lunch, you should be with no more than one other person and practicing social distancing. If you break this rule the police can issue fines of £200 in the first instance and a maximum of £6,400 for further offences.

You can change your password via Office.com and also set up the ability to use the Self-Service Password Reset.
Logging into Office 365

One Drive
We do hope to restore all files from your old One Drive account, however due to the large quantity of data, this may take a while. If you need access to your files as a matter of urgency please contact us and let us know.
Why are our accounts changing?
We are switching your account to provide you with a better IT user experience.
One of the biggest benefits is that you will no longer be a ‘Guest’ in your Class Team on Teams, so when you log back in after this move things might look a little different as you won’t need to switch views and the teaching staff will be busy ensuring the new Teams Class sites are set up for you. You will also benefit from being able to reset your own password within office.com should you forget it.
