August, Week Four, Term Three...
So many ways to learn create share now. Seamless and easy to update and engage students.
I have changed the way I teach assessments at Y13. "One Site to Rule Them All!"
(looks for you tube clip, finds awesome clip - add to site - students reflect and add to research base)
My Y13 students are researching Climate Change - Patterns, Processes and Impacts/Significance.
Woolfe Fisher observers were in school last week and today I opened a shared doc to add curriculum content (Geography) used by students in my class to create digital outcomes. As I engaged in both these professional activities I reflected on how far I and my students have come over the last 5 years. First we all learn something from discussion with digital device support; next we create - our Learning Team Leader of Digital Information Technologies was seeking feedback on how students are doing this, however us teachers are doing this all. the. time. I feel like we do these things extremely well, my students know how to find information at the drop of a question..
"H'mmmmm, I wonder what's under the ice in Antarctica?" - "Google it!"
So, to share, which we are working on. Drawing is awesome and accessible and great for maps...
Lets find a map and annotate it! - Ka mau te wehi!
