Day 5: Collaborative Sites



MULTIMODAL LEARNING IS EMPOWERING

It is an inclusive, differentiated approach to teaching in a digital learning environment. Kerry talked about our sites being like a store front window and learning being fresh and relevant year after year. My class Site is a work in progress. With Kerry's help, I have added more content that is 'Multimodal' to increase student engagment and accelerate achievement. I am particularly happy with the online crossword maker and the 'Get to Know you' activities that my Year 10s can access. Some have even completed a pepeha using pepeha.nz and a Letter to Me (The Teacher).


I have added a introduction/all about me using Screencastify. I am now planning to develop my Food tech and English pages with this in mind:


Learn Create Share + Visible teaching and learning  = Acceleration

  1. Hi Jess

    How did the 'getting to know you' task go with your students?

    The screenshot of your class site looks fabulous, why not hyperlink directly to your site, which is coming together nicely.

    You're doing so well Jess, I love how you are adapting what you learn on the DFI and are giving it a go, applying what we share straight away. That's the best approach, otherwise it's so easy to think you've got this and then next year when you're back into teaching you have to think back to what we did.
    Keep it up Jess, you're a ��

  2. Hi Kerry, They really loved it. They are still working on it. They've enjoyed the pepeha and the Letter to the Teacher. I got emailed one at 10.30pm last night! I'm really keen to share Tinkercad with students next year!
