Digital Fluency Intensive Day 2

What a great start to the second session of our Digital Fluency Intensive with Manaiakalani. Today I have increased my understanding of Manaiakalani kaupapa and pedagogy by learning more about the RAFE model as we focused on the AKO (Learn) aspect of the "Learn, Create, Share" pedagogy.  This learning has reinforced our prior learning earlier this week with Meryn our Manaiakalani Facilitator in school.  The key message that we are already doing incredible work as teachers and all the amazing work we are already doing already with effective teaching practises. 

















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

I am feeling so much more confident with using Google Meet after todays sessions. Our challenge to reflect on a blog and record our Google Meet with a peer, was a perfect activity. After a few technical hiccups, we got there in the end. Thank you Louise for the amazing korero.  Here is our video, my first time using Google Meet to host a meeting and record or discussion.


What did I learn that could be used with my learners?
What has impacted me today is the amazing blog by Mau, that I viewed for task. I noticed how she explained her learning so explicitly. This has really made me think about the purpose of my student's blogs or sites.  So I could use blogs like Mau's to show my students what other year 8 students are achieving with their blogs.


What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow in my personal life?
On top today is the labels in Gmail. I have a camp coming this will be so handy for keeping all our camp emails in one place. I can see I will be using these labels more often to create a flow within my Gmail accounts.

  1. Kia ora Zoey,
    How gorgeous that you put a comment on Fau's blog! I bet she will be so chuffed to have gotten a response from another teacher in another school. You and Louise are correct, there is a framework that Manaiakalani teachers use to teach students how to blog. Can't wait to share it with your students during our future CyberSmart sessions.

  2. Kia ora Zoey. I'm glad you found the Google Meet session useful. I agree about Mau's post. I used it as an example when we had our Poetry Slam I think. I also agree with Louise about the importance of giving students the opportunity to reply to comments. I know Dorothy talks about 5 a day - trying to get a string of 5 messages in a conversation.
