Last three weeks are left. I am ready to go for
placement and I will use some technology in my classroom. We had very
informative two sessions about their own work. They have only 4 to 5 years of
experience but they delivered knowledge very nicely and differently. Both have
discussed their own work in their subject in how integrated the technology in
their work. Mainly both have discussed about blog and twitter but both have
used in different way. As an educator, we got very well information about teaching
method and learning procedure.
In the second presentation, Mr. Tylor gave
information about google drive folder, google forms as well as remote
application. He talked about the video project and how to upload in the tiny.cc.
I heard first time about this application in class and now I have started the
bit playing with URL tiny.cc It has lot of different usage like edit link,
uploaded video and monitor as teacher etc. He talked about dropittome
application, in which we can securely receive files from anyone into your
cloud storage and it works with one drive, google drive and dropbox. I liked
his book project that how students can leave memory in the school and also that
can be useful in future learning when they write some research paper or doing
something else. He also talked about how they are working on Instagram for Julian
and Romeo story. They made twitter account for school activity and permitted by
the school principal.
First presentation presented by Mrs.Kirsten
Thomson about their blog and twitter. That presentation was on zoom and that
was nice. She made blog on history project and students can do some comment on
that. She uploaded the project topic and rubric also. When students have doubt
then students can open the blog or send message via blog. Also, students can
share their idea on blog and discuss with peers. She mentioned that all
students have Gmail account so I think students doesn’t have any problem. She
talked about reminder application for reminding the exam, homework or some
important message. Also, she talked about digital citizenship. I learnt from
her that how can we behave in school so principal or superintendent have no problem
with our work. She talked about twitter, how it is useful to inform everyday
activity to the parents.
Finally, I would say in this week again I got
lot new information and also I learned that if we do some effort and connect
our knowledge with technology then we could get best result. And that could be
useful for teacher, students, and parents.
After reading about the two guest speakers in all of your blogs, I feel unfortunate that I had to missed them. I really like the idea of allowing students to interact with each other online, in a teacher moderated place. It allows students to provide feedback to their peers and the teacher, as well as allows them the opportunity to comment in their own time.
