UBIQUITOUS LEARNING WITH

                               SMART DEVICES

What did I learn that increased my understanding of Manaiakalani kaupapa and  pedagogy?

Manaiakalani kaupapa and  pedagogy have taught me today that devices make learning "UBIQUITOUS".  Learning can happen "ANYTIME, ANYWHERE  at ANY PACE"!

I have learnt that "Rewindable Learning" is an effective learning resource. Another valuable tool to add to my basket. It is a resource that can be accessed by the student and the whānau on the class website "Anytime, Anywhere and the student can learn at his/her own Pace."  I have learnt to  download and use an app " Screencastify."  It is a great way to help students show their understanding of any topic. I have learnt that only when I do explore using the app myself, I gain a better understanding of the effectiveness of the resource. I have learnt how to engage my students with an online whiteboard. whiteboard.explaineverything.com

What did I learn to improve my confidence, capability  or workflow as a professional?

I have learnt about whiteboard.explaineverything.com  and  Screencastify"which are effective visual  interactive tools to enable my diverse students. 

What did I learn that can be used with my learners?

A combination of  whiteboard.explaineverything.com   and Screencastify   are effective interactive tools for my diverse learners.   Rewindable Learning benefits the learner who is absent. 

What did I learn to improve my confidence, capability  or workflow in my personal life?

I have gained valuable insights from the Manaiakalani kaupapa and  pedagogical experts , (thank you Vicky!) to make my classroom more interactive and creative which in turn will make me very happy within myself.

Vicky  explained the difference between a link and a button.  Definitely I am feeling very good .
