Today's session has taken me down to Tautoro School in Kaikohe. We are going to be looking into dealing with data today.
My reflection from last week... So far what is working well in my classroom is having my class site set up and ready for parents and students to use and look at different resources. It is hard being in a new entrant class that has limited Ipads and students that are not as confident on their devices. So I have been working on this and just giving them opportunities to use the Ipads, take photos, record their knowledge and explore their class site. My class is really enjoying this and they are enjoying sharing their learning through devices.
Today I found really useful as we looked into google spreadsheets and google forms. It was cool to look at google forms and use it as a quiz after lessons or ways to quickly find information. It was also nice to look at spreadsheets as we went through a lot of ways to make it easier to use and analyse data. Below is a graph that I have embeded into my blog to show how spreadsheets data can be analysed and made into charts to view data.
Myself and my colleague have also decided after today that we would like to share back some of the knowledge that we have been learning from our DFI course. I learnt today how to create a google form and it require a breakout type feature. Here is my google form. I was just trying to make a quick form to use the tools that I learnt today :)
Quick Quiz on google forms
Great to hear that you are persevering with your class site, despite the difficulties of limited technology, and limited student understanding. Great idea to share your learning with staff, even if it is just one quick tip at staff meetings. Just letting you know that the permissions on your form are set to your school only. :)
