Interpretations:1) Charli-Rose started blogging first
2) Robyn has the highest number of posts in 2015
3) All have a tendency to drop in 2018, not sure why.
Kia ora mai ano tatou. Today was really fun and jam-packed with information. Luckily our presenters are thorough and patient. We learned about the power of Google Forms another powerful Google program and one that I had had no previous experience with. With Google Forms, teachers can create class survey forms, parent survey forms, can create quizzes and the one of the choice features is that it can do the marking for you and almost instantaneously return results so that the class can analyse them later.
Whaea Alicia from Ohaeawai Primary came in to show us how to do breakout activities using Google Forms. I didn't attend the How-To workshop but all tutorials can be found as links on our itineraries.
We spent time using Google Sheets which is not too dis-similar from Excel except the sharability features inherent in all Google programs. I learned more about creating formula to manipulate cells. This was cool because I felt I had some previous knowledge which meant I wasn't floundering like I usually am.
The other awesome program we learned was Google Maps, AMAZING. I was thinking about recording our collected information about the Bay of Islands area and this program allows me to do that. I just have to learn more about it - how to insert images or videos.
I haven't been here for a little while but am really excited to learn more and apply these in my classes.
Hoea te waka kia tae ki uta! Tokihi ki tua!
I also really enjoyed today and feel like we received a lot of useful information. Nice analysis of data on the student blogging exercise. I'm looking forward to seeing your map of the Bay of Islands.

ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous idea on how to use Google My Maps with your students. This allows students to visually connect with their learning. Great problem solving today too on your google sheets and create chart. Looking forward seeing what else you will learn and share.

ReplyDeleteKa pai, your graph looks great embedded into your blog post and I'm glad you can see the potential of using Google Maps with your students. I do enjoy the whakataukīs that you share too, it would be good to add the label to your whakataukī posts especially for those of us like me, who are learning from you 😊
