DFI Week 1

 Today is a new experience for me to learn about Manaiakalani  Programme and although I was struggling to get all the information and tried to practice at the same time but I was excited to try new things. Jeremy helped me when I was in our group so that I could swim 😁. I have learned a lot of things today and I am keen to implement  it in the classroom to enhance my children's learning. 

I have learnt about the key concepts of  Learn, Create and Share and this is what I practiced today in each session. I have developed a knowledge and understanding of using google drive and how to create google docs.  I was happy that I managed to create a document and shared with Jeremy and the members of my group. I still need a lot of support in doing this programme.  I need to keep practicing some of the sessions that we have done today.

I am looking forward to learn more things next week.

  1. Malo Susana, thank you for your reflection on this first week of DFI! I am so impressed with your positive attitude towards beginning this exciting journey towards greater confidence with using technology in your teaching. There was a lot to take in today, and you did a great job with working through it at your own pace. I'm sure that as time goes by, your confidence will continue to grow. I'm looking forward to journeying with you throughout this exciting process! Have a great week!

  2. Malo Susana,
    It's great to have you on board this DFI journey with us. You're right it is a lot of information to take in. This is why we have created so many 'rewindable' resources so you can go back and review things if you need to.
    What was the main thing that you learned this week to help your learners?
    Keep up the positive attitude and ask questions if you need extra support with any topics we cover.

    Thanks for sharing your learning so far. I totally agree that support and practice will mean you are learning lots. It will be at your pace and you can always go back to the resources later as Stef mentions.
