Session two
So much to learn, we touched on so much, and still a lot of new tips.
What did I learn that increased my understanding of Manaiakalani great Kaupapa and pedagogy?
Manaiakalani Goals -to raise achievement outcomes:
We need to motivate our learners to engage in the curriculum
Provide a model for future focussed teaching and learning
Work with learners to establish an authentic audience for their learning outcomes
Empower our learners with an evidence-based belief that their personal voice is valuable and powerful
What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow as a professional?
This has given me suggestions on how I can reorganise my calendar and my Gmail. This would certainly help my workflow a professional
What did I learn that could be used with my learners?
There were lots of ideas I could use with my learner. s Some of the key messages for me are about High Leverage Practices.
- Learning by reading from authentic texts
- Learning by sharing ideas in discussion
- Learning by thinking critically and developing strategies
- Collaboration and making choices in learning, creating and sharing.
What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow in my personal life?
I started using GoggleKeep, this would be great for sharing my shopping list with my husband, keeping those recipes I come across in one place, not scraps of paper in a draw and for taking notes of urgent things I need to remember - now to get Keep organised.
Below are my notes:
Hot tips
We started by learning some Hot Tips using Hapara. I don't have any classes set up in Hapapa if we click on 'all classes' we get to see all the classes we may want access to. We can click into the Star to star all of our classes.
Ako
Dorothy talked through her slides on "Ako" the Manaiakalani Programme,
Some of my notes from the slide shows-
Learn - Ako. Access and engage in a digital learning environment.
"Using the Learn, Create Share framework to manage learning in a digital environment that is truly Visible through Goggle Sites leading Learning, Bloggingsharing outcomes and highly effective teaching practice has enabled this accelerated rate of progress" Professor Stuart McNaughton
Ako, Hauga and Tohatoha.She said the common language allows for the difference in schools.
The Goals of the DFI directly relate to goal 4. As adult learners

Amplify: build on these
Turbocharge- things the students would not have had the opportunity to do before
Important- rewindable learning -
Every child should learn in ways not possible before
To remind myself of the pedagogy of Mananaikalani, I need to look at the slideshow again.
GoggleMeet
Maria took us through Goggle Meet
Think how you might use Meet in a different way?
When presenting, use your entire screen for slides
When you want sound, a video clip, use a chrome tab.
Goggle Keep
Dorothy took us through Goggle Keep
The first thing to do is to add a label
Can be used for signatures, at conferences, shared shopping lists
recipe collections
You can take a photo of text and convert it to text, it will convert handwriting to text
Takes voice memos
Use dots at the top, click on record, voice to text option
I could use GoggleKeep for TAs to record where they are at with students
