It would be good to be able to open a specific class and see the lessons (e.g. for the term or s series of lessons) rather than only via the calendar and see a single lesson only.  

Assess is by selecting the Tasks tab and you then can see a day view that allows planning to added. It is a skin of the website. ]]> 2017-08-08 23:37:39 UTC https://padlet.com/j_boulton/Feedback/wish/180423218 Formatting on a page j_boulton https://padlet.com/j_boulton/Feedback/wish/180423806 The fomatting is not a not as smooth as desired. The page jumps around. The ability to select a cursor location can be difficult 
as other test or formatting prevents the user to change without removing or having to edit. ]]> 2017-08-08 23:44:04 UTC https://padlet.com/j_boulton/Feedback/wish/180423806 LP https://padlet.com/j_boulton/Feedback/wish/195884178 Access practice materials from home (music)
Ease for parents to access
User friendly
Quick
Useful for classroom communications
Functional, easy to put stuff on (drag and drop)
Easy for kids to find stuff
With time will be even better

  • PD to set up page procedures and everyone getting on board - Trish ran
  • Collection of assessment = successful in regards for ease of kids having to upload it rather than paper 
]]> 2017-10-11 05:42:24 UTC https://padlet.com/j_boulton/Feedback/wish/195884255 HPE feedback https://padlet.com/j_boulton/Feedback/wish/195884268  Work out is it a content collection or teaching platform?
  • PE is content
  • Not teaching, might bring it back??
  • Marking of assignment
  • All ordered 
  • Pen with iPad. It’s clunky (not immediate)
  • Download to notability, upload to Ss Google drive
  • Time to get head around it
  • Investment
  • Not ‘technological languaged’ - struggle with ability to remember how to steps if not done regularly → time stress

Photos from ipad not a smooth process - but getting better
videos don't easily embed - have to use a player or google drive
'hidden' word in blogs very confusing
parents not accessing
staff inconsistency with content and blogging 
sharing the workload]]> 2017-10-11 05:42:44 UTC https://padlet.com/j_boulton/Feedback/wish/195884284 HPE feedback https://padlet.com/j_boulton/Feedback/wish/195884297  Next steps/future goals
  • Work out what teaching platform we all teach from
  • Does each teacher get their own page?
  • Filing system - how does it work? Note quite sure
  • Need to be able to get all student work from FF back onto Cloud based 
  • What happens to “last years” work?
What I want from FF:
  • Content collection → resources set up on it
  • Share point for parents, staff and students (community)
  • Gets tweaked every year, not added to
  • Teaching platform:
  • At teacher’s autonomy
  • Not parents process
  • Eg. if on G Classroom, discussion based vs technology for example. 
    • Are parents on class pages? 
    • Too much power to parents? 
  • Wants everything on ONE platform, but parents not on it

- more use in lessons - meaningfully
- parents more involved and actively using
- helping teachers understand how to use FF embedded in learning
- helping teachers create meaningful blog posts
- consistency
- agreements around how much and what sort of content  ]]> 2017-10-11 05:47:03 UTC https://padlet.com/j_boulton/Feedback/wish/195884731 Videos https://padlet.com/j_boulton/Feedback/wish/195884829 Replace onsite storage of SPLC videos from Clickview to Firefly. ]]> 2017-10-11 05:48:05 UTC https://padlet.com/j_boulton/Feedback/wish/195884829 Blogging/ Communication with Parents https://padlet.com/j_boulton/Feedback/wish/195885790 Greater consistency and essential agreement. Encourage/ require parents to access.]]> 2017-10-11 05:57:37 UTC https://padlet.com/j_boulton/Feedback/wish/195885790 UX Design https://padlet.com/j_boulton/Feedback/wish/196238595 I would like to see much more flexibilty in changing the layout to suit - I virtually never use most of the shortcuts and other links on the main page outside of my shortcuts to my classes and the task creation and message links - would like to rearrange layout to reflect usage - both for teachers and students.
