Kia ora Koutou

Day 6 of Digital Fluency Intensive

Enabling Access Sites

Phil's Bubble

I enjoy meeting with our bubble in the beginning of the morning learning. Its good to hear what the others have been trying and I inevitably pick up some great tips from the other members.

• Video (screencastify) to give the first instructions on the class site
• Children always need to make a copy of the document they are working on
• Children / and myself should always learn to put their work in a folder.

MANAIAKALANI -PEDAGOGY   Connected

"Connectivity is a way of life for our students. Take it from them and they will check out." DFI

Connectivity empowers us by giving us access to knowledge that was not always available.

I agree that in the past, local and national school communities would  connect to compete in sports, cultural or literacy but digital technology has provided a tool to connect as a partnership in learning.

He waka eke noa : We are all in this learning together.

Te mea nui rawa ia ko te noho tahi, ko te whakawanaunga, ko te whakawhiti whakaaro.

The important thing is living together and exchanging ideas.

Making a class site.

It was very useful to look at some models of sites to get some ideas of what will work for me.

I spent all afternoon trying to change the site I am building into a simple colour scheme and don't like it. I thought the multi coloured buttons were far more inviting. Go figure!!

However the day is not lost because my learning style is to practise, practise, practise before I have nailed something.
