Picture Pages
These pages can be printed out and cut up for pupils to stick in their exercise books or files. At the moment the picture pages concentrate on GCSE history, but more pages will be added.
Data Files
The data files are provided in Pinpoint format and the Student Booklet includes a tutorial on how to use the package to extract useful information from the data. For users who do not have access to Pinpoint the data is also provided in Excel format which allows for the transfer of data to other formats as required. The main datafile contains data from the Ballymena Workhouse and this is the focus of the pack. However, some comparative data is also provided from the Workhouse in Magherafelt to provide a slightly wider perspective on the issues of the time.
To download and make use of the Workhouse Pack you will need:
Adobe Acrobat Reader for the Booklets - available free from here
Pinpoint 1 or above to use the data - (Alternative Microsoft Excel format) This material is free to users in education and may be copied as required.
