Once again the creation of the blog...Kia ora Robin,<br />Once again the creation of the blog post is an excellent example of sharing to learn. The device can be a very expensive pencil, and Hornby High's efforts to focus the whole community on understanding Learn Create Share and the affordances that digital technologies enable ensure that the device is a $540 creative tool empowering Hornby High learners.<br /><br />In term one as part of the Manaiakalani Outreach staff meetings throughout the country we focussed on RATE - Recognise effective teaching practice, Amplify effective teaching practice and Turbocharge the effective teaching through the use of the digital technologies.<br /><br />We know what effective teaching looks like whether it is the use of SOLO in the school or embedding Ka Hikitia or looking at the Woolf Fisher Research Centre feedback. We need to ensure this effective practice is not "the baby being thrown out with the bathwater" when we introduce technology.<br /><br />The amplification of effective teaching practice comes from the Manaiakalani pedagogy and kaupapa of Connected, Ubiquitous, Empowered and Visible — these four points highlighted in the research as the key to achieving acceleration in learning.<br /><br />The turbocharging of effective practice using digital technologies is crucial to hook our learners and get them to engage with the curriculum. Technology enables increased quality of teaching-learning experiences that were either not possible before or were not equitable for all learners as the third image portrays — the ability to virtually visit the Pyramids of Giza or look at the Mona Lisa inside the Louvre are just a few of the examples I could draw on.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing Hornby High's story,<br />Nga mihi,<br />MarkAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-441318645230472855.post-51261091180074842422019-05-06T15:45:33.321-07:002019-05-06T15:45:33.321-07:00Kia ora Robin and thanks for sharing your thinking...Kia ora Robin and thanks for sharing your thinking again!You have identified many of the critical elements in LCS. The Learn aspect runs through everything and underpins the pedagogy. This is truly transformational and as you demonstrate, allows students to do things they could not have previously done without the technology. LCS and the affordances of technology are definitely enabling creative excellence at HHS and leading the way for Uru Mānuka!Gary Robertshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06141748052738753141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-441318645230472855.post-80505215667782234302019-05-05T00:49:24.441-07:002019-05-05T00:49:24.441-07:00Joanne
Let's not forget that your Drama is all...Joanne<br />Let's not forget that your Drama is all about authentic audience too. Learn Create Share is not just about digital stuff. That said, the digital tools allow things we couldn't otherwise do.
