Week 7 F2F Device


Week 7 F2F topic was "Device" so Vicky was talking to us on google meet about Being Cybersmart and this is the language that has being used in 2011. Cybersmart is the roof of Manaiakalani's house and the roof needs to be well equipped in order to be safe for the users. These statements are the reminders for us teachers and students as to be Cybersmart: Be Internet Smart! Be internet Alert! Be Internet Strong! Be Internet Kind! Be Internet Brave and Be  Internet Awesome. The students need to learn cybersmart language.  Being Cybersmart empowers learners to be confident, connected and life long learners. I have learnt about the importance of students learning to be visible and ubiquitous. Dorothy, Jeremy and Fiona have demonstrated how to use the chrome book and ipad with our learners. The three of us worked collaboratively to create the task Explain Everything  using the ipad. I also created a task  for my class using Tongan and English for Cybersmart using Explain Everything App.  Thank you Manaiakalani team for providing the F2F programme to give me more opportunities to learn how to teach our students digitally. I have learnt a lot and taking it to my classroom and for me personally to use. Mālō 'aupito.

DFI F2F Week 6 Enabling Access

Dorothy was talking about the importance of "Being Connected". Manaiakalani is connecting us to a powerful network where we can build up relationship with each other. This is the opportunity for the teachers and learners and the community to be connected digitally. Today I have worked hard on my Class Site and I have learnt how to use different tools to enhance children's learning. Visibility is an effective way for children's learning and I am looking forward to upload some resources for my class.

DFI F2F Week 4 Dealing with Data





 I have learnt about the pedagogy of Share and Manaiakalani chose Blogger as the main online space for our young people to share. Blogger is the most useful platform for our children. I  have created a google form and used All about Me as the title and I have learnt how to use different type of questions for that topic. I was able to create a google sheet and here is the sheet and the graph I have made for  number of blogs that one of the students shared from 2015 to 2021.
