If this concept is true as adults have a responsibility to model positive, thoughtful and helpful behaviour for the children, as we are all global citizens.
So the emphasis for today was :
1. Smart learners (learn)
2. Smart footprint (create)
3. Smart Relationships (share)
Therefore, growing students to be connected and confident decision makers, safely at home in this digital world. What was refreshing was to hear the connection to the Treaty of Waitangi: Partnership, participation and protection.It is important for people to reflect on their roles and responsibilities in this world they are born into.
The concepts of the day were nice.
But using the tools was frustration. The trials of this day could have been lessened if this programme wasn't done online.
One presenter was hard to listen to because of poor internet speed, another had a croaky voice and should have just been subbed out. Using both screencasterfy and Explain Everything was just frustrating!!! (When someone in the know next to you could rectify technical quickly so you could just get on with the task at hand.)
Kia Ora Tania,
ReplyDeleteIt certainly sounds as though day 7 was an exercise in resilience.I'll pop in and see if I can uncover what the problem was with Explain Everything - it sounds as though perhaps you had some frustrating challenges. I definitely want to support you in ensuring Screencastify is working well as it's such a useful tool that has the potential to empower both you and your learners in your rewindable learning. Hopefully you feel this is more successful.
