| A snapshot of what my life looks like in my Covid 19 'bubble'. My grandchildren's home-based kura |
I must say, that I was very apprehensive about how this session of distance learning would go. Thanks Google for creating Hangouts/Meet. Using this google software increased my understanding and made the learning easy and manageable. Being connected via Hangouts/Meet demonstrated the pressure points that we as leaders of learning may encounter when connecting with our learners and this was an area that I needed to see in action. The delivery of today's learning was well-supported and well-presented. I particularly liked how we were able to get that 'smaller group' opportunities to support our understanding around some of the learning.
I have found the DFI learning very valuable. My knowledge is increasing. especially when given opportunities to share and reflect. A piece of my learning that I am going to share, is my google spreadsheet. I did not join a group to support me to complete this task, as I felt confident enough to create a spreadsheet on my own following the teaching/learning given over the day. Surprisingly, I did reasonably well, until I got to adding 'Series' labels/names. I did ask for assistance in the meet chat, but because everyone else was writing in the chat, my comment may have gotten lost. I have set my self a goal from now until the next session, to see if I can solve this issue by going through some of the rewindable learning videos and/or having another go at it.

Kia ora Ada,
ReplyDeleteSo much new learning!
Great that you were thinking about how the Hangout Meet would work for learners as you were participating as a learner.
How are you getting on with sorting the label issue? Have you tried clicking on the chart where you want to edit?
Feel free to contact me to have a Meet about this or any other learning.
Ngā mihi,

PS Do the grandchildren get the holidays off?
Kia ora Maria
ReplyDeleteThankyou for the comment (reminder). I was able to solve the 'naming of a series' issue and thought that I would post it. I have also had an opportunity to use hangouts after our DFI session 4 with some colleagues and felt relieved when there were no issues that arose from it. I intend to keep practicing though. Again, thanks for the support.

Yay, Hangout Meet with colleagues sounds good. #sharingthelearning.
DeleteHow are teachers thinking/feeling about term 2?
