Digital Fluency Intensive Day 3

Permission for Creativity



I loved that Dorothy focused on CREATE  - "Creativity Empowers Learning". This really confirms my pedagogy and had encouraged me today to continue to make way for students to have multiple opportunities to be able to be creative. Often I have found the deadlines of assessments and assignments and the pressure of teaching to cause me to put some of this aside, however, after today, I have a fresh excitement to bring more Creative empowered learning into my classroom.




This documentary video is so Inspiring! (Saving here for a reminder) I wonder what you loved about school?  I loved and still love learning new things, engaging in opportunities that were hands-on. 




I have been challenged with a task in Google Slides to create a map, using the tools available. I found this tricky at times and also very rewarding. Latham explained to us how we could use Google Slides for Maths, and I am so glad he has showed us how we can do this. I felt his clear instructions were an essential part of making this task achievable. Here is my version of the map.

  1. Kia ora Zoey,
    Isn't that documentary fascinating? It was the one we couldn't get sound for at the staff hui, so I'm glad you've now had a chance to watch it. I think the tension between making time to be creative and carrying out assessment is something many teachers face. I look forward to seeing all the creative things you get up to with your class!
