What did I learn that increased my understanding of Manaiakalani’s Learn kaupapa and pedagogy?
It was good to hear from Dorothy this morning.It is interesting to hear that Manaiakalani kaupapa is Moving from analogue world to the digital world. Effective teaching is still essential and the NZ curriculum and supporting documents are still very relevant.
Any teacher who can be replaced by a computer - should be!
This slide shared by Dorothy really resonated with me.

We did a google hang out and discussed...What was the teaching design behind the post?

Who responded to the post and how did it support the learning?
Here is a video of our attempt. We had to first download quick time, learn how to use quick time as well as learning about google hangout. We had a problem with the sound recording on our hangout and we could only hear one voice. Lots of learning with this session!!

It was awesome to learn how to tidy the bookmarks bar in chrome. And great to have the time to do some of this.I really liked learning about organising my emails etc. I had over 7000 in there and it was in much need of a sort.

ReplyDeleteI think you did an amazing job today, keeping up with our mahi while juggling two computers as you transferred over to Apply Mac from Windows, well done you! I'm glad you got a lot from today that you felt you could carry over to your students. That was a good Litterless Lunch poster you created too in google docs, you'd never know it wasn't done in a publishing type app.
7000 emails is a lot but it's not the most I've seen. I met a teacher once who had 34,000! Adding labels will help sort it out especially if you use the rule 'apply to all conversations'. Searching by name or email allows you to delete a lot in one go. I do this from time to time as well as unsubscribing, a lot of the emails I get are just updates with promotions.
