The pedagogy was Connected, which teams up with the Visible from last week. Within the Learn/Create/Share thinking, if it is visible it must be connecting with someone. There are many ways of connecting with others, and the teaching point is about how this connection happens, rather than the device used. Really important to be teaching children to connect in Positive, Thoughtful, Helpful ways.
Then we had a look at sites! There are some very good ones out there that were great examples of what can be done. (Thanks to all the teachers that shared their sites with us.) It was good to have some time to work on my own site as it is not something I have really used much. After seeing how other teachers use their sites I have tried to make mine more user friendly and get more of the children's learning onto it. It is something that I will be continuing to develop.
Kia ora Wayne,
ReplyDeleteWonderful to see how looking at other people's sites has energised you to put time into your own. I love the simplicity of your site, it is perfect for the age group you teach. I hope you do continue to develop it as it is a wonderful way to make our teaching ubiquitous and accessible for all learners.
Ngā mihi,
