Learning:
Sharing within schools is constrained by time, places and people. Authenticity of the audience is at the heart of sharing- an authentic audience according to Manaikalani is people who have the power to move on.
Blogger: Tool to show people how to teach - resembles spaces our young learners want to be on. Similar to learning to drive. When you learn to drive a car you don't learn in a flash Ferrari most often you learn in an old/nana car. Same thing applies for Blogger. One big advantage of Blogger is owned by Google.
Google Forms: Great to make surveys to get feedback from your class. You can also make quiz's. Good to make required fields so that students do not skip questions. You can import data that you have collected from a specific Google Form to a Google Map and add it in for example if you have a question about which is your dream destination to visit.
Google Maps: Great to show bicycle routes. You can add multiple layers with different information. Maths - could use maps to work out the perimeter and the area.
Google Sheets: Google translate was a good function. Once you have a data set and you select the data you want to make a chart on. You can go down to the bottom right corner and click the 'explore' button. This will bring up the recommended graphs that will look best for the data you are wanting to chart. Filter- Once you select the data that you want go up to the top right corner and click on the funnel icon. When that pops up go into your headings and filter accordingly.
Blogging- Writing a quality blog
Kia ora Cam,
ReplyDeleteReally great to see you outlining the different things you are learning during your DFI session. I can see that you will use these in class with your students (plus, you told me you would). I also found it fab walking past your class last week and hearing you teach your students about how to make slides less boring. Make sure you share some of their finished work so we can celebrate it.
Ngā mihi,
