DFI - Cohort 3 Revision -12/12/19

Time to reflect and share with colleagues one more time

I learned about Class sites today. Further increasing my understanding of how to build up my class site and adding buttons etc. I have learned so much to increase my confidence, another thing I learned was using spreadsheets working out simple formula's. I will share my completed class site 2020 with my students and of course, keep adding links to the pages.

Spreadsheets, sites, titles, subtitles, and table of contents have increased my confidence. I will use the spreadsheets for assessment data and class lists!!!

Thought for the last day. A big thank-you to Vicki and Makaore for all the help given to us. DFI course has been the best PD I have had, so worthwhile. 

Adding Titles, Subtitles and Table of Contents

DFI-Cohort 3 Computational Thinking Day 8 5/12/19

Time to reflect and share with colleagues


What did I learn that increased my understanding of Manaiakalani kaupapa and pedagogy? Technology is not just a tool but it's about opening up opportunities for our students and empowering them in their learning.


What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow as a professional? I didn't know that coding could be so educational...always thought Minecraft was just gaming.


What did I learn that could be used with my learners? I would like to share the coding, Minecraft, micro bits (soundbox, flashing light and music) and scratch. But I need to learn more about these before I do.

DFI - Cohort 3 - Devices - Day 7 - 2/12/2019

Time to reflect and share with colleagues

What did I learn that increased my understanding of Manaiakalani kaupapa and pedagogy? Being Cybersmart it's helpful if we let our students know what we want them to do. Empowering student voice through digital citizenship, Being Cybersmart empowers learners to connect when their learning is visible and Ubiquitous. Changing the mindset, to what you want to see and being more positive.


What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow as a professional? Using other devices that our students use. It gives me an idea of how their devices work and what they are capable of doing or not doing on them. I certainly was walking in their shoes.

What did I learn that could be used with my learners? Digital Dig gave us more knowledge about the Chromebook Keyboard Shortcuts.



What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow in my personal life? Screencastify I haven't used it in yonks and I was reminded how useful this app is.

We made a Screencastify using information from the Manaiakalani Cybersmart -Smart Learners: Manaiakalani Cybersmart
