Digital Learning and Teaching Resources in HPE by Olivia Netzler

Padlet: Your Digital Canvas

olivianetzler — 2025-03-24 07:47:27 UTC

Hi Team! As a future HPE/Science, I am looking forward to collaborative learning in this space. I'm new to Padlet and excited to share multimedia content and comment on each other's posts.

Formative Assessment with Kahoot

olivianetzler — 2025-03-24 07:47:36 UTC

Nothing beats a good Kahoot session to energise the class! I use it for pre-topic knowledge checks and revision sessions. The competitive element really gets students involved, during Praxis 2, I used Kahoot's in my earth science unit. The 9th graders loved it- and it gave a dry topic the spark needed for students to engage.

Creating in Canva

olivianetzler — 2025-04-29 00:37:30 UTC

My first practical, I was excited to learn that every student in the classroom had access to Canva. During a year 7 HPE class, students made a poster demonstrating PERMA. Students all had a login through the school to access Canva, which provided a fun way to build posters and share with peers.

Engagement strategies:

Students can:

Collaborate with a peer through the share feature
Create ideas through group collaboration, timely feedback and access to projects in real time.

Create Worksheets

I have attached an example of a simple worksheet that can be created in Canva (see the above visual). This is easy to create and easy to share with students. Most importantly, it allows the teacher to create in a timely and visual pleasing format.

Create PowerPoints

You can also create PowerPoints for your class that are now able to connect to Gen AI (such as Chat GPT). This allows for a timely creation of an Information and Communications technology (ICT) to shar with the classroom.

Sportscode is sports analysis digital tool students can use to analyse tactical situations or individual performance. It provides students the ability to breakdown a full match and gains statistical insight into what works best.

Redefinition and High -Order thinking

Through the breakdown of matches/practice, students are given the foundational knowledge that can inspire the creation of student-initiated goals and strategies to enhance performance.
Students can create short video footage for peers and provide feedback based on data.
Students can self-assess and create training plans build on their own personal data and video feedback.
Learners take a student-centered approach toward peer collaboration and sport discussions through data and research into the game. This transforms collaboration through engagement, feedback and future planning.

Yogger is a movement analysis tool, that can be downloaded as an app and used by students in real time. It does not have sharing capabilities which can slow down collaboration, however videos can be downloaded and emailed to peers. It is limited by its capabilities, but a fun app for students to consider the fundamentals of movement.

ONE NOTE

olivianetzler — 2025-05-17 12:34:36 UTC

Check out this video to learn how to use one note. Many schools in Queensland are using one note for students to keep a working document.

QLEARN

olivianetzler — 2025-05-17 12:38:16 UTC

This is a link to Qlearn for distance education, however it is beneficial for all teachers whose schools are using Qlearn. This is a 'How to' guide. My upcoming practical in the classroom is at a high school that has a whole school approach to using Qlearn, and all students have access. It allows teachers to organise class content and arrange it for students to view from their laptop as I teach.

Quizzezz

olivianetzler — 2025-05-17 12:42:35 UTC

Quizzezz can be embedded into Qlearn (or provided as an external link) to provide formative assessment or diagnostic assessment. It it a great activity for students who have finished work early and need a self-paced challenge!

Create a google survey

olivianetzler — 2025-05-17 12:45:57 UTC

This video helps you to understand how to create a google survey. Google surveys can provide immediate answers,and are fantastic for large group surveys (think cohort surveys).

I have shared peer Haylie Fernie's Resource for the use of VR headsets in the HPE classroom.

Shout out to Tasmin for sharing this website with links on e-safety education. While I feel confident about safety for my students, I acknowledge that as fast as technology changes- it is critical I stay updated and follow the framework of best practice.

PHET

olivianetzler — 2025-05-20 10:13:40 UTC

During my science class last week, students used PHET to simulate a skateboard ramp to learn about kinetic and potential energy. Phet offers interactive simulations that keep students engaged. Examples of simulations include- building a molecule, or atomic interactions. Phet work with all thing's science and math and can be open up a world of experimentation without leaving the classroom.

This link takes you to a sign in for the Scootle site where you can find a really neat tool to give to your year 11 and 12 students on cyber safety. I also found it brilliant for my own professional development. It demonstrates an understanding of the relevant issues and the strategies available to support the safe, responsible and ethical use of ICT in learning and teaching (AITSL, 2022) by discussing privacy, well-being, consequences and online behaviour. It is interactive for students and a great tool to have them take agency in their own online safety and ethical use of ICT

Cyber safety in QLD schools

olivianetzler — 2025-05-24 09:17:06 UTC

This is a great resource from the Queensland Government providing resources for parents and students around cyber safety. This resource has wonderful guidelines and recommendations for safe use of ICT and ways to proactively stay safe in the classroom.
