ENABLING ACCESS
For the Manaiakalani pedagogy aspect of this week, it was to be about 'Enabling Access' and being 'Connected'. Similar to week 5, connecting students, whanau and schools within learning. Making learning visible and accessible for all.
This week we spent a large amount of the session on google sites. It was useful to view educational sites that have been produced by teachers with different levels of digital experience. Also to receive feedback on my class site by those same people. No matter how experienced you are there is always something you can add and adjust to make your site more engaging and captivating for learners. A chance to also reflect upon our own blogs and make a few goals to achieve today was important, for me I realised I didn't have a button for my cybersmart section or a link to other classes sites from my team.
I set myself the goal of tidying my class site home page, which was done by creating a new button to have on my homepage to connect our cybersmart page, to link two other classroom sites from my team onto the site and also to check all fonts are readable and engaging for learners.
Kia ora Anna,
ReplyDeleteI would love to see your site and see how it is developing. I went to the Awapuni School site but could only find your 2020 site. Are you able to add a link to your current site so we can see how it is developing.
I know Nic at Central said she got a few ideas from seeing your site and she is inspired to add to her site. This is a great way to amplify our practice and support others in their mahi.

ReplyDeleteI like your comment regarding no matter how experienced you are there is always something you can add or adjust. It is so true - every time I would with teachers I am inspired by their new and innovative ways to make their sites work for their learners. I am curious if you accomplished your goal?
