Share: Embed and Rewind Content Time to reflect and share with colleagues What did I learn that increased my understanding of Manaiakalani kaupapa and pedagogy?           Using digital technology to enhance and 'hook' students into learning.  Aiming to accelerate            learning for students.           What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow as a professional? Hapara  - review session with students re: where to store/save their work in folder so it is more accessible for all to be able to provide feedback etc.   What did I learn that could be used with my learners?   Screencastify : how can i utilise this in my programmes?  Students rehearsing lines, reading out loud - getting used to the sound of their own voice, recording live drama/music performances - this will be a handy tool for students to review their own performa...

What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow as a professional? What did I learn that could be used with my learners?   What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow in my personal life? Pepeha - using google slides to add a visual dimension to pepeha... Slides - shortcuts, explore tool... Youtube channels - great way to monitor what students are able to view - to minimise the potential to land on unrelated content... This is going to be excellent for completing 'focussed listening' activities with students...

Session Rua reflection

. Session Rua: 😲 Wow!!! I have so much catching up to do - I feel like I have just crawled out of a cave...

DFI Reflection Session Tahi

What did I learn that increased my understanding of Manaiakalani kaupapa and pedagogy? Great to begin the day with some history of the local Glen Innes area as well as the whakapapa of Manaiakalani.  I look forward to continuing to learn more as we move through this programme.  I was particularly inspired by the whanau voice captured, and their communication of wanting their tamariki and whanau to be able to have the same educational opportunities as some outer communities.  Education is definitely a powerful tool in addressing issues of inequity and inequality and I am excited to be a part of this moving forward!! What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow as a professional?
