DFI Session 4 SHARE

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

The important of AUTHENTIC AUDIENCE and how this can give so much more purpose to the learning.

With a digital audience people are they because they are choosing to listen to you or view your work. 

Sharing creates a real reason for students to actually finish their work as it is going to be published online as opposed to just being shut inside a book.

This however is not only and ending.  Often in the process of SHARING new learning begins.  If people engage in what you have shared they will often provide though feedforward and feedback a spark for a new challenge or line of learning.

Multimodal = having different opportunities for students to engage with the leaning around one topic of theme.   Eg read the book / listen to the story online / watch it as a video.

Multitextual: using a variety of different text written for different purposes or audiences and being able to make meaning from these.

How can I use digital technology to reach all my learners in the way that will work best for them.

Same content displayed or received in different ways.

What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow as a professional?  It was worthwhile having a go at creating a multimodal site and thinking about all the bits and pieces that can be put into such a tool to support learners across a range of levels and abilities.

It was also great to find out more about Google Keep and the many ways in which this can be used to simplify things.  I look forward to sorting out my array of 'sticky notes' that currently cover my desktop!

What did I learn that could be used with my learners?  
The creation of multimodal sites is something that I would like to use next term.
Here is the one I created today on Gardening

Creating and embedding playlists from Youtube into my site.  This was further developed from last week.

What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow in my personal life?
The use of keep notes and how this can work together with Docs and Calendar will also help my personal life as it will help with reducing doubling up and searching for things.
