Manaiakalani kaupapa & pedagogy

Dorothy's google hangout this morning helped me to understand the reasons behind using Blogger. I had been thinking, why use another medium of sharing when we could just use something we already know and am comfortable with. However, the detailed explanation of the points to the left and the example given to ensure inappropriate posts can be removed swiftly if required makes it clear that Blogger is a great choice.

Useful with my learners

Using google sites as a one stop shop for your students would help them avoid distractions and minimise how many 'go missing' when following a string of instructions from the teacher to get them to the right place.

It also makes you think about the variety of learning experiences you are providing for your students through the multi-modal approach.

An easy way to set up 'must dos' and can dos' also.

Improving my confidence, capability or workflow as a professional

Using google sites as a resource bank for staff also helpful. I am finding it much easier to support and share great resources for maths through the use of our 'Maths Hib 2019'.

Improving my confidence, capability or workflow as a personal life.

I am looking forward to using Google 

Keep for to do lists as I use stickies often and 

have them all over the place! Then have 

to waste time going through to work out what 

I can delete! Also very excited about being 

able to take a picture of text and have it transfer

to text. Amazing!
