I have been loving this session about Devices today. Our hands-on learning about the Chromebook keypad functions, shortcuts and so much more has been very beneficial. I know I get asked a lot of these questions daily and I feel more equipped now to be able to empower my students to succeed.
Adding my slide here from some of the work I have done today.
Having a go with Explain Everthing.
It has been a long time since I have used iPads in my classroom as the majority of students use Chromebooks in our year 7 & 8 classroom. Bring on a new challenge for the day. As I continued to experiment with the various tools like the DRAW TOOL, I started having fun and I could see some students in my class enjoying this app! I especially liked the INSERT NEW tool. I felt my students would be engaged in creating presentations like this while being able to include images and gifs. I have a few iPads in my classroom ... So it might be time to bring these out and have go with my class.

Thinking about REWINDABLE LEARNING 🧐
"Have a think now about the idea of rewindable learning
Ie capturing the teaching, capturing the learning
Enabling young people to revisit it over and over againManaiakalani "
Kia ora Zoey,
ReplyDeleteLove that you were able to re-purpose Kerry's Digital Dig lesson for Room 9. I am a great believer in "Why reinvent the wheel?", as so many teachers already have great resources out there that are easy to tailor to your students individual needs. One of your CyberSmart sessions already done and dusted!
Ka pai Zoey. It's great that you can see the value in all the tools we used this week. Absolutely fantastic idea to customise the digital dig to make it as relevant as possible for your students. See you next week!
