DAY TWO -1st August 2018
Recap of the four Main Goals;- Our teachers are supported to acquire fluency using the basic tools our young people use for learning
- Our teachers are supported to acquire fluency using the basic tools required for effective teaching, planning, assessment and professional learning
- Our teachers are supported to understand how digital technologies used effectively can have a significant impact on accelerating achievement outcomes
- Our teachers are supported to understand how the Manaiakalani pedagogy and kaupapa has been co-constructed over more than a decade to maximise the impact of effective teaching and learning in a digital learning environment.
Todays activities
Today we made an early start from Taipa - the light was just coming into the day, but it was mild. We traveled to Kaikohe and arrived in good time.
My reflections for the day on the following foci follow;
Again I found the tasks and information was great, there is a feeling that its okay to ask, I am not supposed to know everything...and as always more help with greats tips.
We started with Dorothy - who with a click of her heels made everything seem simple. She spoke about the philosophy surrounding 'share' from the circular Maniakalani model 'Learn create share'
Dorothy reiterated that the schools pedagogy and specialist ideals surrounding Learning are central in the process.
We had a chance to reflect on how last weeks learning was useful and shred in our week.
My share;
- What Worked
First up in the explore section -Practical tips for 'Taming your TABS' -Arranging and organizing the gmail inbox email. Currently I have 1800+ emails that are not sorted - so useful to have a refresher on making folders and being able to have emails sorted when they arrive. We also looked at ways to use TAB managers to handle multiple window and tasks. I am not sure that I grasped all of this.
I did find it useful to know how to make sure my bookmarks are organised ...and that its possible to have cool folders that set out group.
I had lots of laughs when we trialed the using of google chat and did some handout discussion groups.
Our group has success communicating and Tina recorded this as a video which I will attempt to link to the Blog.
Every thing is still bedding in and I will need to do more experimenting with all of the task today. Once I sort my files and have a good system set up it will make it so much easier to find resources! This will be so helpful as currently I my files are a mess.
Today I have used Calendar to set up a dept meeting and I was able to link the agenda, also made a fabulous group in Team drive.
would like to use goggle chat to contact my colleague in Christchurch with whom I have help with Senior assessment & moderation.
In my classroom, I believe that I could use chat in the multilevel class situation, to move between groups possibly?
Will look forward to experimenting with new skills and sharing ideas with collegues.
Update

6/8/18 Students in Y9 are creating Docs in food tech folders to share with me. Using explore to find images and information - Booya!
My reflections for the day on the following foci follow;
- What did I learn that increased my understanding of Manaiakalani kaupapa and pedagogy?
- What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow as a professional?
- What did I learn that could be used with my learners , capability or workflow in my personal life?
