DFI - Week 6 - Enabling Access
As we begin another week of new learning, we discuss in our learning bubbles with references to WWW.
What has worked for me since the last time we met?
What hasn't worked or made sense?
What do I need help with?
As I reflect on last week and the learning and building of google sites, this was really helped me with managing my work load and work flow.
Since the beginning of the year and the end of March (since lockdown 4) I have been working on my class site and have watched it evolved as my knowledge developed creating slides and embedding them.
Because I am using my class google site frequently everything makes sense and this week I was lucky enough that I didn't really need help.
However previous weeks and lessons
Enabling Access and being Connected

Our Kaupapa of the day - Connected. The points that stood out for me is the emphasis of connect. It is one of the four elements that stands with the pedagogy of Learn, Create, Share.
Having the default visible, the shared language of Ako - visible, empowered, connected and ubiquitous.
Tihi Mai - Tuhi Atu
Write to me - Write to others.

LEARN CREATE SHARE
Today was a follow up on google sites. We had the opportunity to explore sites for varies year levels, schools and topics and thinking about the Engagement and User experience.
Exploring these google class sites was really good and we got the think about the usefulness of it, the access, visibility, the learning, creating and sharing. Keeping in mind the visual and the user experience.
With this knowledge, our own google class site we got to share and our colleagues giving us feedback for improvement.

Screenshoot of my class - Room 11's learning space link here My class site is an ongoing developing site and I am always making changes to improve the use for my students. I got great feedback and my goal is for me to continue to create and develop Multimodal content, Multi-text content, creating student agency and empowerment over their learning, rewindable learning, using photos that are current as well. Always remember to check sharing access too, making it accessible to anyone with a link. ![]() Today's session was great. I love exploring the kaupapa of Manaiakalani as it helps me to have a better understanding of the pedagogy of our teaching with the support of technology. Everything is making sense. Our facilitators are amazing and my little bubble group is awesome. Thank you so much to our facilitators and colleagues whom I am on this journey with as we explore these tech tools to enhance our teaching practice and knowledge and managing our personal life to make things easier.

Anne,
ReplyDeleteYour site is fabulous, engaging both cognitively and behaviourally! Our sites are always developing, as you suggested, for various reasons. We need to ensure that we are adapting to suit the needs of our students as they change and grow throughout the year.
