Connecting with our Bubble 

Last weeks Reflection:

What has worked for me since the last time we met?

I have applied voice audio to record my meeting notes on Google docs. I have changed the headings and formatted them on my planning slides for all my classes. Camilla Cameron from Kootuitui Papakura provided me with the blog template with all the widgets. I edited them by adding extra links into the navigation bar menu for my professional development to date. I have shared my Blog with Jeremy Ferguson. I have also shared the hyperlinked poster with my colleagues for them to send me a link that could be used by students who want to sign up for all the extra-curricular clubs at our Kura.

I am more than happy to share more about esports. Please let me know if your interested by posting a comment and I will reply!

I have posted my comments on two other Blogs.

What hasn’t worked (or made sense)?

Things are going well so far!

What do you need help with?

I want to know what we as teachers should be putting up on our Google Sites. I have most of my resources and assessments on Hapara. My Hapara is embedded into my site, so I just get the students to use Hapara. I am keen to know what others are doing?

What did I learn that increased my understanding of Manaiakalani kaupapa and pedagogy? The tools are not just tools. They are used to make teaching practice more effective to transform the students learning through the concept of Ako.

What did I learn that could be used with my learners? Students can embed video into their blog by copying the embed code into the HTML script in Blogger. This can also be resized to fit as required by changing the values for width and height.

What does the Learn look like at YOUR school? There are teachers who are familiar with the Manaiakalani kaupapa and pedagogy. For teachers who are not familiar, this blog will be shared with colleagues as a resource to find tools, tips and tricks. What did I learn that could improve my workflow as a professional? The one thing that I feel will help me improve my workflow is "Taming the Tabs". Grouping tabs by right-clicking on a tab. At the start of the lesson, I get organised by opening all the tabs I need and then when I try to find the correct one, I cannot read the entire tab label, so I scroll through the tabs until I can find the tab that I am looking for. By using OneTab, I can now put a label for each class and open one tab for each of my classes that will list all the websites and cloud resources. This can be downloaded from here.

Google Keep is a useful tool to quickly make notes and also capture the text from a photo. This would be useful in different situations such as making notes different from someone's presentation and using the text to make record your own notes under the respective headings.
