Time to reflect:
Wow I have really enjoyed my mahi today with our first DFI session. Yesterday myself and Janine voiced to Amie that we were feeling a little overwhelmed by what is ahead. She assured us that we would be fine and even, if we took just one thing from today it would be worthwhile. Well I have taken many things away from today that I will add to my kete. So many tips that I will be able to use personally and with my tamariki in Team Toroa.
A few things...
-Google Groups
-Sharing and not sharing with people
-Making my emails all separate
-Control/Shift V not just Control V
-In a doc making the Title and then the headings (store it and then it will continue) and then inserting a content
-Voice typing tool
-Using the Explore Tool (much safer)
-Copy the text from the Explore Tool and then add the footer (")
-You can share a doc but make it so they don't receive and email
-Create some text so the tamariki can create/answer questions
-Scavenger hunt (create task for ready activity etc)
-Adding png to get no background, using snipping tools and removing the background
-Dragging a picture into my blog
-Putting my doc into my blog and making it large (need to work on that), or just screen shot
-Docs (add a table and then remove the lines)
-For next week...add a table to my blog!

Here is my first creation
Kia ora Molly,
ReplyDeleteHow exciting being at DFI. I loved it when I attended last year. I learnt so much and marvel at how it can streamline our very busy lives. It looks like you hav already put lots of Google-icious tricks into your kete.
How did you find voice typing? I use it lots with learners especially when I want them be productive and not fuss over the spelling of words.
Looking forward to reading about your DFI learnings as you go ahead.

ReplyDeleteThank you for your comment. Can't wait to korero with you kanohi to kanohi about what I am learning!
I feel like I could use voice typing myself on those days I am tired :) and yes it will be a great way for the tamariki in Team Toroa to get their thoughts down quickly.
Kia pai to ra!
Molly :)
Kia ora Michelle,
ReplyDeleteExciting to know that tech can so strongly support our good mahi. Great to see there were so many take-aways. Hope you get to implement some of these into your practice soon.
