Student can type questions that can be addressed at the end of what you are saying.]]> 2020-04-16 02:38:39 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/509755765 Clear instructions are not enough! 09709456 https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/509759855 Students still require explaining of what needs to be done in the lesson, and where to access things Even if it is step by step and activities/resources are hyperlinked  ]]> 2020-04-16 02:43:03 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/509759855 Students are relying less on the teacher's presence and intervention (and thus, do more of their own thinking). 09709511 https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/509769540 2020-04-16 02:53:40 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/509769540 Lack of interactivity makes starters and problem solving activities difficult to run. 09709511 https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/509773817 2020-04-16 02:58:16 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/509773817 For students with devices, you could theoretically be giving live support from home through these online platforms even if away sick for a day! 09709511 https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/509777080 2020-04-16 03:01:40 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/509777080 Obviously technical difficulties is an issue https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/509822216 When Compass is down, having to adapt your lesson for students, and those without devises, having to create 'paper copy' friendly resources to send home is creating more work for us.]]> 2020-04-16 03:51:01 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/509822216 Challenge to overcome! and LEARNING https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/509824451 I'm loving how rewarding it is to see myself overcome this challenge as an educator, particularly in my first year of teaching!
Day 1 was a shambles and day 2 was SO GOOD - I am learning what is working and what's not. 
Learning how to use these platforms can only enhance our knowledge as educators!]]> 2020-04-16 03:52:28 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/509824451 Does online learning prompt higher levels of parental engagement in student learning? 09709511 https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/509826007 2020-04-16 03:54:11 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/509826007 Using Google Meet https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/509840153 I have only been using google meet for students that are having trouble with questions rather than as a whole class room. Much easier to instruct only a handful with no other distractions.]]> 2020-04-16 04:09:04 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/509840153 Recording https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/509846814 When I record my instructions for those that are having trouble, it is sound sensitive so the video shows me when I am talking but then the students when they are talking and flips back and forth. How do I just record me at the board?]]> 2020-04-16 04:16:45 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/509846814 Student Participation kgibson41 https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/509857412 I had lots of students commenting on each other's questions and posts. In particular students who weren't necessarily "friends" and therefore wouldn't normally be seen in the classroom helping each other out. On that note, I had a lot of other teachers help with some issues I had and I've really enjoyed doing some "team teaching" by sharing resources and sharing the load with our year level teams. It's been super encouraging and helpful!]]> 2020-04-16 04:29:17 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/509857412 Junior students who struggle with more than one step instruction. kgibson41 https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/509860411 I found it difficult yesterday with my year 7s when there was a lot of resources and the instructions weren't super simple. For example "click this link, then watch this video, then go do these questions in text book". I've adjusted some lesson plans and made many changes to keep things simpler but day 1 was very tiring. ]]> 2020-04-16 04:32:12 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/509860411 Students okay to ask for help kgibson41 https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/509863612 I tried a new approach today- staying in our Google Meet the whole session and students could click back on a link if they needed help. I found students really engaged this way and weren't afraid to ask for assistance. ]]> 2020-04-16 04:35:57 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/509863612 Google Classrooms https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/515294895 I have been lots about using Google Classroom as I go, but there are a couple of things I'd like to know, such as where to post a couple of key pieces of info (eg: link to our Google Drive folder) at the top of the page]]> 2020-04-19 12:15:26 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/515294895 Google Meet for students who miss class. https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516049356 I began trialling Google Meet towards the end of last week. Starting and finishing each lesson with video. It is good for students who did not attend to see the Q & A plus the discussion that took place about a certain topic.]]> 2020-04-19 22:15:04 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516049356 Only had one class so far but it has been good. I keep Google Meet on all lesson for chats and to ask questions. I like the screen sharing function and with Windows Ink, I can annotate examples whilst sharing my screen. https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516083899 2020-04-19 22:57:42 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516083899 Mathletics https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516084050 I have found that Mathletics has been a really great resource as the students can see exactly what they need to complete, I can see who is doing the work during class and how they are progressing. The students can also share their screen with me so I can talk them through how to complete the questions.]]> 2020-04-19 22:57:56 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516084050 Technology Issues https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516085535 Some students are still having issues logging on to google classroom. Some students are logging on and then not actually doing the work.]]> 2020-04-19 23:00:03 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516085535 Since my first class was a test feedback session, the students who didn't do it dropped off. In other classes i have been putting in finishes to make them 'stay the course' so I will be putting this into practice as well. https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516086109 2020-04-19 23:00:46 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516086109 Compass https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516087155 Students are forgetting to look at compass. I know it has had issues, however even when instructions are on google classroom, the students are not independent enough to follow instruction even when they are written down and easily accessible. ]]> 2020-04-19 23:02:09 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516087155 Definitely agree that keeping Google meet on for the whole lesson works well. Interesting that a lot of students prefer this method. I have found with other classes I always have a Meet first where I explain what is going on, discuss what we are doing etc. I then let them go (they can leave the meet) but I stay on for them to come back and seek assistance. I then finish with something that requires everyone to answer. 08837189 https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516088279 2020-04-19 23:03:30 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516088279 Bookwork: How are people going with this? I have just made Compass Learning tasks for the students to upload pics of their chapter work. Has anyone got a different method that has been successful? 08837189 https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516091258 2020-04-19 23:07:24 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516091258 Students are en https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516117137 2020-04-19 23:40:50 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516117137 Making videos 09406777 https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516117534 Students are enjoying using videos - they like that they can pause when they need. ]]> 2020-04-19 23:41:24 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516117534 Student responsibility 09406777 https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516118489 This has emphasized that students are in charge of their own learning. Learning can be differentiated by uploading different resources for students to access depending on their skill level. ]]> 2020-04-19 23:42:37 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516118489 Screen time 09406777 https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516119336 My head is spinning by the end of the day. I'm not sure if students feel the same, or whether they're used to it. ]]> 2020-04-19 23:43:42 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516119336 Google forms 09406777 https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516124059 I've found google forms an easy way to do an exit ticket or monitor student engagement. It can be time consuming to set up, but if I use it occasionally I think it will help me gather formative assessment.]]> 2020-04-19 23:49:14 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516124059 Work Verification https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516307414 Before the students are allowed to exit the Google Meeting at the end of the session I get them to show me the work they have done by holding it up to the camera. At the end of the week a learning Task is set asking the students to upload photographic evidence of the work they have undertaken throughout the week]]> 2020-04-20 02:48:11 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516307414 I'm glad I created of whole lot of resources in the "holidays" because I 'm finding the schools days very tiring. 02005540 https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516413495 2020-04-20 04:29:25 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516413495 One Y10 Student said she is getting less done at home. 02005540 https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516438071 2020-04-20 04:54:43 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/516438071 Google Classroom, Classwork tab arnottnick https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/531041261 Using the 'Classwork' tab in the Google Classroom, I created a quick ‘Survey question’ during a lesson for students to tell me individually how they found my start-of-lesson that day.  Quickly I got response (not all yet) which gave great feedback for knowing this adjustment worked for most.
This seemed effective way of getting feedback from students which wasn't shared publicly in the 'stream' or 'chat' in Meet. Many students prefer this private way to communicate it seems.]]> 2020-04-26 11:54:20 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/531041261 Appropriate f/up to students who haven't submitted bookwork arnottnick https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/531046299 Wondering what others think about how hard we follow-up on outstanding book-work which students should have submitted as a learning task?
That is, do you think this is something we should be advising parents of as 'outstanding' learning task. Perhaps for discussion Monday afternoon.]]> 2020-04-26 11:58:45 UTC https://padlet.com/09314803/3fn888zqguwa2czj/wish/531046299
