DFI Session 4: Dealing with Data

-

Sharing is a part of who we are as human beings. We want to be noticed, to feel seen and heard, and to be remembered. Manaiakalai's kaupapa around share is vital in growing healthy and confident communicators within an ever evolving digital and global audience.

There has been so much to learn today from creating pathways in google forms,


To creating maps from embedded information in Google Sheets,


To using Google Sheets for all of our Data processing and analysing needs,


I am definitely going to be exploring how I can, more efficiently, use Google sheets to analyse my assessment data.
A lot of this is going to enhance my personal use of these programs as I already use them in my planning and assessment. I hope that I will get to use some more of the Google Sheets with my classroom to extend their analysis and goal setting based on data.

    Sharing is so important and I am glad to see you have learnt some new tips and tricks for google sheets. It can be such a handy tool especially when used with google forms for collecting that data. I find aside from just assessment data we can also get some great understanding of students well being and even add student voice into how we plan for things. The google my maps is also a great tool (that even I learnt about today) it can have real value especially if you want to add in data from students etc. I hope you had a great day, keep up the hard mahi!!

    Kia ora Michelle,
    Aaah... I read the words of a budding 'Sheet lover'! There are a few such people around... but they can be hard to find. I look forward to seeing how you are going to use Sheets within your classroom practice. I would also like to see your Form but I think at the moment it is only viewable to those in the Devon Intermediates domain?

      I have changed the share settings! I love sheets, and they're coming in really handy to keep a track of attendance at the moment!

 Creativity is something I deeply value. I have grown up in an extremely creative whanau and am a creative myself. Having the chance to connect with and practice the CREATE  part of the Manaiakalani kaupapa was so much fun! I loved using Google slides for something other than presentations! I have learnt to create an app using slides that can allow my students to navigate one of their lessons. I can see how this could become an exciting way for students to present their learning, and as a beginners step to app creation. I would love to see how this also could become a way of akonga reporting back to parents about what they are doing and what their next steps are. Take a look...

DFI Session 2: Workflow

Google has so many functions that can increase work productivity and efficiency. Cleaning up tabs and gmail is a task that I would generally need to do each term however, with changing a few settings (and adding some folders in gmail) it makes it into a much easier process. I have customised my settings and added some filters to sort emails appropriately into the folders which makes keeping up with blogs and google classrooms heaps more manageable. Using Google Keep  I want to try and use Google Keep. I am quite an organised person by nature and I respond well to lists. I have created many notes in different places, but I would love to centralise these so that I don't have to go looking  in  multiple places to find them. I can see where this could also be beneficial for learners in terms of helping to keep them organised with their own tasks whether it be for school, sport, or personally. Using Google Meet This is a really cool tool. I am more familiar with Zoom, however,...

Ubiquitous Learning is something that in the last few weeks of lockdown that I wish I understood more fully. The idea of teaching and learning being rewindable from not just the teaching front, but also from the students learning is something I think is hugely valuable. Lockdown was a good opportunity to create tutorials and record Google Meets for the students to be able to access at any point. I found that the ones who did engage in this learning found it really helpful and engaging. I would have loved to have had some time to take students through some of the skills behind rewindable learning beforehand, but hind site is also a gift, and I am now going to look for opportunities to integrate this more in my teaching.  I love the idea about Participation, Partnership and Protection in relation to digital technology. This is something that was also highlighted through lockdown that we could work on as a school. That learning is not just about from teacher to learner, or learner to ...
