Manaiakalani Digital Fluency Intensive - Week 5 - 05/04/19

Reflection Week 5 - 05/04/19

The day began with Karakia - connecting with a great group of educators and then the www session.

Other things discussed throughout the day was as follows:

Connecting with Manaiakalani - pedagogy and kaupapa- Visible teaching and learning. Today we focussed on Visible. Visible is different from planning, process, outcomes and assessment.

Next was MultiModal - different ways of communicating with our learners. Engaging our learners by first engaging ourselves and inspiring them. Multimodel is the hook for engagement. We also had a look at some of the multimodal sites.

After that we moved on to creating Google sites. The layout and contents of the site needs to be planned first. At first we created a new site from scratch and named it Sandpit Site. Then we had a look at the “Garden with Science” site and the slides and used the ideas gathered to create a multi modal site for learners. The site which was created is attached below.

Today I have learnt a lot of things especially creating a multi modal site which can be used effectively by my students. Having a multimodal site can assist in promoting my site  it will be more appealing to my learners and they will be more engaged and eager to explore and learn.
