Workflow
Google Keep, Calendar, and keeping our workspace organised
We began the day with a discussion on AKO - LEARN, and the acronym RATE. Using these concepts, we linked the ways digital tools can be used efficiently for effective teaching practice. We discussed how the learning network enables diversity, accelerates learning, and transforms the way we learn. This is centered around an evidence-based programme.
The ordering and manoeuvring of tabs and bookmarks will make the admin side of teaching much more streamlined and help me to limit how much I have open at once. Using Keep to monitor my 'to do' list will be really useful and being able to share this with whānau and colleagues.
I learnt new skills that can be transferred to the classroom, particularly with Google Keep, knowing how to store comments for feedback and to conveniently insert these into student's work. Today also reminded me of how important bookmarks are, especially when learners are trying to find websites and documents that they use regularly.
I am looking forward to sharing the benefits of Keep with my friends and whānau to streamline the organisation of activities and help to get everyone on track during whānau occasions. I will also enjoy not hearing comments from my own children about how I have 'too many tabs open', or 'why haven't I grouped my bookmarks?' Definitely a confident boost!Mā te wā,
Alicia
Kia ora Alicia,
ReplyDeleteIt seems that everyone found Keep a tool that they instantly found useful. As well as storing your comments for feedback you can store images - like button, and stickers to add to comments to make them eye-catching.
Having experienced Google Meet and knowing how to record the Meet is a way that you and your class can connect with others without leaving Gisborne. Keep an eye out for opportunities to bring others into your class by using Meet.
