Session 4- Dealing with Data

• What did I learn that increased my understanding of Manaiakalani kaupapa and pedagogy?

I enjoyed this part the most to be fair - the sharing around childrens learning and experiences.

It became apparent that the children involved in blogging and sharing really were very passionate about their mahi. I could see the intrest in and about each others work and how this connect families to the tamariki.

• What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow as a professional?

Sharing DFI toolkits with syndicate - done! This is very collaborative and I think the others will really enjoy hopping on and finding videos or infomation about their interests or class direction.
Class on Air ... I can only dream! We did talk about this as a Cluster in regards to Reading. It does sounds pretty fantastic but I feel I need to unpack this a bit more and learn more about my Mk journey to see if it was the right pathway for my learning.
I was quite comfortable using Forms but good to go over the secrets. It would be interesting to do this for FB vs Blogger Vs website with whanau....am I over communicating?

• What did I learn that could be used with my learners, how could they use?

Today I also learnt how to insert Smiley faces in forms- have a look at my effort today Form. This is a more junior approach to forms and I look forward to creating a few more survey's that use these. These also have given me  a great idea for children with high learning needs.

Maps- Linking to out Ko wai au unit and other areas of Connected Curriculum (Social studies) How Waitara got is name

Slides- great tools for reporting to Principal and Board My Blog report

I feel that my class has started to give postive feedback to others especailly with Writing. Funnily enough it does follow similar guidelines of the MK Kaupapa as below..but I love the three key ideas...maybe I can start using this visual in the classroom as well

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

Investigate more about the Auidence / vlews on blogger Vs facebook VS HERO (SMS). This is quite a big interst of mine as I am very aware of Teacher workload. We dont get the engagement on HeRO that we would like so I am wondering about using blogger to repeat the learning and seeing what success the class can get on here.
