DFI Day Two Teaching as Inquiry Reflection
Bookmarking and other useful tricks
What I learnt:
How to create folders within my bookmark bar to organise all my bookmarked sites.
How to use the AddOn “One Tab” to collapse all tabs into one. Another add-on called “Toby for Chrome” can be used to open up groups of tabs.
The notion of creating a site as a “landing page” for students in the school/ class to arrive at when they log in. This could then have direct links to relevant apps and sites.
What I will aim to do:
Finish spring cleaning my very cluttered bookmark, by sorting the websites into folders.
Investigate possible landing page for Kea class.
Gmail
What I learnt:
About how to use labels better. How to colour code them, and set up filters on them. I haven’t conquered how to do this competently as yet, so need to spend more time practicing with the function.
What I did/ aim to do:
Continue with labelling e-mails as they arrive.
Develop a system for sub-levels for students emails within class label.
Practice how to set up new filters by pasting e-mail addresses.
Calendar
What I learnt:
How to add events, and then invite others - or share with others.
Made a start on this.
What I aim to do:
Need to practice.
Also need to add in other calendar links. Check with school, RE ones...
Hangouts
What I learnt:
How to create a Hangout with others. Completed a Hangout with Gerlinde and Sally. Gerlinde used Screencastify to record our Hangout.
What I aim to do:
Create a Hangout and invite Kerry, Dorothy and/ or Donna to join.
Kia ora Joanne, thanks for sharing your take outs from this day and highlighting the aspects that you found the most useful for your own work flow. Did you get a copy of your hangout to share?
