Kia ora team. Today our DFI was around 'Enabling access' to our sites. In regard to Manaiakalani kaupapa and pedagogy, we learned about the word connected and what it means for us. A community of learning that creates learning opportunities to connect.
We learned about an RSS feed and that it pulls out all of the blog posts from the children's blogs. Manaiakalani uses twitter to do this. A good way of providing reading and writing opportunities for students. This might be something I test out when school returns back to normal
Following this, we did a 'Deep Dive' on Google Sites and looked at the purpose of these.
Following this, we shared our class site in our groups with Kelsey and gave each person feedback on visual appeal and user experience for their site. I had three goals to complete in order to update our site. It is taking some time but I will post when I am completed. My online learning journey throughout this DFI is still going great, it is an awesome way to learn. I wonder if I will ever get sick of it? One thing I am going to try next week is something I found off another class blog which is a 'Guess Who' challenge with baby photos. Alongside this, I will create a google form where my children can guess who!
Kia ora Lucy,
ReplyDeleteGreat to hear you are still getting so much out of the online sessions. I am finding that I am able to connect with you all at a much higher level, I guess having so many facilitators helping is also a factor in this!
I look forward to the changes you make to your site once it is all go!
The guess who baby challenge sounds like a lot of fun - let me know if you want a photo of Cooper for this haha!
