Tripping through Visible Sharing

DFI - Day 7


Live Streaming - Presentation
This has huge potential in regards to sharing. There is an initial set up cost with cameras etc but worthwhile. 


While the above is the ultimate, you can use your laptop camera or a drone. Drones should have a gimbal (I had to look this up) on it which is where when you turn the drone the camera stays level.
You don’t have to be live you can keep it private.

On immediate reflection: This would be great in streaming events that happen at school as it may be a way for more of our whanau to engage with what their children  are doing and for our tamariki to know that there is a way for their whanau to see/be involved with what they do at school.

Hangout with Dorothy - Being Connected Digitally

Being connected digitally is a way of empowering the learners and we can do it because the learning is shared and visible. It extends from the individual, potentially to the world. This is an inclusive model and again, taps into the human instinct to SHARE and to be connected with other human beings. A powerful network … allows the conversations to happen with the Ministry of Education, who also see us as a powerful network.

Diversity is celebrated - what ties us together is the language of Learn Create Share

“If you are all paddling in the same direction, you have greater power, you are more efficient. There is an impact on the nature of teaching and learning because if the teacher and student each know what it is you’re meant to be focusing on you are more likely to reach your goals.” - Dorothy Burt

Term 4 is about bringing the Learn Create Share together, have something to enable students to innovate and accelerate learning.

Digital turbo-charges but face to face is also just as important. Digital allows us to do more or include those that can’t be there. This is where Toolkits came from. 

You will often find the words connected and share tied together in Manaiakalani resources and events- it is impossible to have one without the other. Because connection is a two way, two person action. You have to give to get. If you want others to share with you, then you need to be a sharing kinda person.

Powerful learning, creating and sharing comes into its own supporting a Connected network when teaching and learning is visible. Connectedness is powerful when teaching and learning is visible,
learners (and teachers) have are empowered (have agency), and ubiquity is supported.

From today I have a burning need for further play and learning in the 'live streaming' area. I've had a chance to play more on google drawing and google slides in order to understand more about what I ask my children to do. A valuable experience. I do a lot with slides anyway as a lot of our work that we set the children are on slides. It was interesting to learn that using comments to put in my reflections of learning/lessons are only visible to the editors and that people on view only can NOT see the comments.
I've also learnt that when adding the embed code of an animation in the html of blogger (once the slide is embedded), if you change the delay amount from 1000 to 100 this speeds up the animation on the blog.
Another valuable day with more time needed to play and grow in confidence.
