Subject: TY Digital tech
Easy to use app
What went well - lesson allows for student autonomy, teamwork, drafting skills, presentation skills.
Room for Improvement? More specific input needed for some students - students' task initially was to find images/video that told the 'story of deansrath' but when I gave specific movie themes it gace students more to work with

NDaly - 1st EAL

Use of iMovie and GarageBand.
Recorded audio and soundtrack with GarageBand for student movie about themselves.

Went well: engaged students, produced tangible learning product and teacher was able to assess project after class. Feedback could be personalised more. Easier to differentiate for varied levels of EAL students.

EBI: more specific template would help guide weaker students and keep focus on specific grammar or vocabulary targets.

Recording google translate doesn’t actually work, so...
1. Enable text to speech in settings...general...accessibility...speech...speak selection.
2. Type text into pages
3. Select voice memos, start recording....
4. Go back to pages, select text, select speak
5. Stop, save, voice memo, edit & trim off start and end of recording...
6. Share voice memo....save it to files...choose an app
7. In iMovie...audio...imported....add

Improve quality of audio...settings....voice memo...audio quality

Used keynote in coding lesson (week beginnng Oct 22nd)
1st & 2nd Year Coding

Went well:
Use of magic move facility enabled students to come at coding via creative, problem solving tech that didn’t involve actual coding.
Students were engaged with the problem solving, task based shape of the lesson.
Main themes of lesson...mistakes (bugs) are inevitable but welcome!
Improvement:
Magic move appeals to creative, critical skills....it will be a challenge to see how it can scaffold the analytic, mathematical reasoning needed for more advanced coding

Used iMovie, screen recorder, photo editor
2nd Years English, End of module review of Novel submitted as student movies.

Went well: use of screen recorder with google translate to read text for students’ audio before insertion into iMovie  (good for students uncomfortable with recording own voice)
Use of screen shot rather than save image places image first in the queue for insertion into imovie timeline.
Previously ‘oppositional’ students loved the freedom and creativity released by iMovie& iPad generally
Project work in this form promotes group work, care, on topic class discussion...
Room for improvement: use of google translate as voice recorder for students not a solution that I want generally....especially given importance of oral literacy.
