Devices Agenda Day 7

Kia ora koutou,

What has worked for me since the last session?

Ensuring my School site has a visual appeal and is simple to navigate. The site has a theme the same as the main school website. The teaching and learning are visible to rangatahi, caregivers and the community. Permissions have been appropriately set for what students are required to access and what others can see. The embedded slides provide students with rewindable learning. This is particularly useful in the current apocalyptic climate of Covid-19 and working remotely online. All other resources are available on Hapara Workspace embedded into the site for each of the year levels I teach. 

I used Jamboard to gather wellbeing feedback for my seniors, sharing ideas of this lockdown experience and an exit card for my juniors.

Pedagogy and Kaupapa
Ubiquitous - Ubiquitous learning to stop the below happening which is the summer drop off. The summer learning journey is a blogging program, run via a blog with activities posted around STEAM, for students to get involved in a 30 minute journey. Once the task was completed with support from trainee teachers, students got points for responding and writing their blogs. This project showed it really made an impact on their achievement.

Cybersmart Curriculum

Empowering our learners as connected and confident decision makers

Being positive, helpful and thoughtful with all comments on blogs and peer feedback. 

Fiona Grant advocates for blogs for all ages of students to be cybersmart and part of the Learn, Create and Share Malaikalani pedagogy.

Time to get creative with Cybersmart and screen recording 

Presentation link 

Create a screen recording talking through your lesson. 

Some things you might want to reflect on during your recording:

• What are the key messages / learning intentions in this lesson?

• How have/could you personalise this lesson for your learners? And what would it look like on your learning site?

• Are there opportunities within one of your current lessons to integrate these cybersmart concepts?

Enabling Access Sites

What has worked for me since the last session?

I finished my esports website. Making the resources visible to students, whanau and the community. I would like to storyboard the planning of the site using the Jamboard tool. I have received some positive feedback, but need to receive feedback from the users. I used the colour pick to match the colours for the theme.

Chalk ‘n Talk: Makaore | Leading Learning using Google Sites | Overview of setting up a class or subject sites

Learning is Visible, Learning, Sharing, Teacher practice and accelerated rate of progress by professor Stuart McNaughton (Wolf Fisher)

Ensure your planning is as well as teaching resources are available on your sites. Plan and ensure the site has a visual appeal. The homepage is a shop front thus must be a wow factor. Consistency throughout. 

Ensure the users are able to navigate everything on your site.

Applying the learning to my Digital Technology Site

I created an Image masking this into a shape and adding some text in Google draw

I changed the theme to the same colour to match the Papakura High School website colours:

I put in this note for the videos as the permission do not allow public access: These video recordings are for the purpose of students and rewindable learning

Rewindable learning is evident through my slides that also have the embedded video of the online Google Meet classes:

Last weeks Reflection:

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

I learnt about creating conditional pathways based on the answer selected in Google forms. This was particularly useful for me to gather student voice to find out more about how a student learns best (Visual, Kinesthetic and Auditory) Students Voice form.

I learnt that sharing 'live' is beneficial for caregivers and the community to actually see what is going on in real-time by sharing. I sent an email to our filming club leaders to give them an idea and opportunity of filming the assemblies live. There may be further implications involved, however, this is a work in progress. 

I really enjoyed mapping out my maps of all the places I visited in the world!

What hasn’t worked (or made sense)?

Things are going well so far!

What do you need help with?

I am having trouble with my conditional formatting, so need to practice using this more in Google Sheets. 

Our DFI Bubble - reflecting and sharing our learning journey so far:

Connecting with Manaiakalani: Vicki

Pedagogy and Kaupapa: Visible Learning 

• Visible to the Whanau
• Visible to the students 
• Students need to know where they start from and where they are going
• Success in learners - students had the ability to read the teachers mind

• This includes WALTS and the learning and assessment processes:
• Have the default of having this as invisible. So we need to know what doesn't need to be visible?

• By providing sites and Hapara you can not lose it and work can be accessed from anywhere
• Visible to parents and whanau
• Accessible, Available and Advance (Before it is needed and before the deadlines)
• Visible to Teachers using Hapara 
• Class Blog to share the learning journey once it has happened
• Hapara was specifically designed for the Malaikalani schools
• Reset student passwords in Hapara and have students logged back into learning in a couple of minutes instead of waiting for I.T.

Manaikalani Class on Air - Great opportunity for teachers to observe other teachers

Teachers can become one of these teachers and applications do go out later on in the year.

Secondary Teaching areas

Deep Dive: Kerry

Multi-Modal - what we mean when we use this term

An inclusive, differentiated approach to teaching in a digital learning environment

• Peadagogy unerpins the site
• Empowering teachers and students
• feel confient and excited about the students learning
• Opposite to one size fits all
• Creating a multimodal sites - know where the resources are so they can easily navigate
• About establishing routines
• How can we hook them into the learning

Hapara Hot Tips #4: Maria

The Sharing Tab

Explore: Vicki

In our digital bubbles take a look at some multi modal learning Sites from slide 19 on

Investigating websites that are multi-modal sites. I looked at a Science website that looked visually appealing so I decided to explore the content: 

• Great images large and clear
• White background
• Looks creative but not messy
• Videos, images and text are accessible to a range of learners who learn best in different ways
• The theme of each site is distinctly personal to the subject and teacher making it easily recognisable when students visit each time. This is the example of the shop front and creating a wow factor!

Other websites have a clear theme, Learn, Create and Share pedagogy. All created in sites and visible to all:
