DFI - Day 3 MEDIA

Started the Day with WWW to refresh what worked well, what I need help/support with.

Then we had another hangout with Anne Sinclair - she talked about the concept of create.  She is super passionate about this area.

Students are the centre of learning.

She talked about how significant this is in the north especially with Elwyn Richardsons work at Oruaiti.
Creating clay pots then making a kiln to Glaze the pots...

What is sisomo?   SIght SOund and MOtion...

What can I do to foster creativity in my classroom??? Anne asks.... she suggests we watch the videos..  videos about create

Then we had a hangout with Kent.

He took us through live streaming...  see this Slide that he showed us... no longer possible on youtube

Type PNG to get an image with no background....

Great ideas on google draw 2nd slide examples

Then we started doing google draw which was cool, this was my first attempt.

then we worked with slides...

This could work really well for my class and I will start using it. Here is my first example

To embed/ upload this slide I went to the slide - file - publish to web - change the size to small.... then go to embed screen ctrl C the embed code and then go to blog.  change to HTML top left and add the code into the blog where ever you want it to show up.

What did I learn that increased my understanding of Manaiakalani kaupapa and pedagogy, particularly the Create element from today’s presentation? I learnt heaps about create - really loved the google draw examples and the google slides. I can see both of these working really well in my class.


What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow as a professional? Doing the hangouts again was way better this time, we were all really quick and did it in no time at all- even managed to take a video with sound this time around.  Jess will share this with me when she has it downloaded.


What did I learn that could be used with my learners?
The google draw and google slides, I even want to try and do a hangout with my school kit class down in Fielding, at Fielding Intermediate.

What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow in my personal life?

rewinding to some of the things I had forgotten the last two weeks.  For example the PNG rule when looking for images, also embedding clips/movies and slides.   Creating a google hangout.

What did I learn that increased my understanding of Manaiakalani kaupapa and pedagogy,
particularly the Learn element from today’s presentation?

So much - was another week of fast learning, the powhiri from Paparoe was amazing and also the intro from Anne.  All the google slides are really good but I need to make sure I go and use them or I will forget.  Hangouts are great.

What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow as a professional?
That I need to go and refresh from all the slides so that I use it with ease.

What did I learn that could be used with my learners? 

Could try Hangouts with the class we are sending our school kit poems too, even though it says it is tricky with a group of poeple. 

What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow in my personal life? 

Organise gmail at home, archive old emails and have a folder for invoices to pay by staring them or something.

search for folder name in search and then advance search - then say location or time

Google Doc set up 

always name doc with initials so you can see each childs work as they share it.  

Set up with the class is important - use hapara to check if they are naming the doc correctly and saving it into folders.

Voice typing under tools. ctrl/shift/s

Highlight and change headings

1. What did I learn that increased my understanding of Manaiakalani kaupapa and pedagogy? Heaps... got a even better understanding of how Manaiakalani was established and how the need arose. Nice backstory...
2. What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow as a professional? Keep my drive organised, I do try... also need to sort my emails and delete stuff more regularly. Keep trying the new tips with google docs.
3. What did I learn that could be used with my learners?  I liked the remove background tool, I want my class to do this themselves so they can add new profile pics to their blogs.
4. What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow in my personal life? To keep google drive sorted at home also... maybe organise emails into better folders for accounts to pay etc.
