We also had to do the digital dig again which was good to go through, we had started it with Donna but Rob's class (who were starting up with their brand new chrome books) only got through 2 slides. So this was great to revisit. I need to continue doing this... I actually had this timetabled into my weekly plan - so students were to do 20 minutes of cybersmart on Thursday.
Then with Gerhard he introduced us to ipads and how the junior school would use them. The video (kawa of care) was awesome and it would be cool to make our own one for the school.
Expalin everything tutorial was great. These are the things we had to learn to do:
In the afternoon we did looked at screencasify, I have been having a bit of a play with this and did two last week for my students. I made one with a funny video that I was sent about toilet paper and dominos, the kids loved this and used it for writing inspiration. The second one didn't work as well and the sound went off the video (not the screen recording - just the video) so I need to keep having a go with this.
We also looked at our blogs, It was a bit fast for me when Kerry was talking and so I need to go back and try to add a page and change my blog layout.
Time to reflect and share with colleagues
