Blog - The Tired One!

Week Two.

What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow as a professional? Actually - after the last session? I feel like I've taken a step backwards. The 'Google Hangout' session this morning was good and I was looking forward to the afternoon session as a means of consolidating that learning. Instead, what happened, was it didn't work, there were too many issues and the learning from this morning is now muddied. I guess the saving grace is that the learning, is, rewindable! The Google Keep I need to start using ASAP.

Check it out!!!


What did I learn that could be used with my learners?  Model, Model, Model! and never assume!

What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow in my personal life? Until I get my workplace workflow sorted there is little time for personal life!!

But hey! I've learned how to find my downloads (Oh my goodness, that's life-changing!) I've learned (Thanks to Nic!) how to link other documents - I did know this but when it doesn't work? I can now fix it! And I've sorted all my bookmarks! Who knew what was contained in those 3 little dots!!!

Week One.

So, the journey begins. Nine weeks. I've got this... really?

It was interesting to hear a more detailed version of the beginning of the Manaiakalani Trust.  I'd always thought of the beginning of the trust as still being in the 'digital' age - I can't imagine trying to set such an enterprise up when classrooms only had one or two computers! (if they were lucky)

The idea of sorting my folders out and actually colour coding them is going to be great! However, I rather think it will be something that I do from now on - really do I have enough time to go through my existing stuff?

Sadly, I'm learning that I have to take my time (age?) when learning how to extend myself with the technology. Does anyone else have this sort of problem? Thankfully, sitting in a classroom and being aware of this can only help in the classroom.  Crikey -  how many times in class do I think...  were you not listening?   Happily, now perhaps I'll be able to empathise and ask "Am I going to fast?" Hey better still, put all the instructions on a rewindable video - hopefully future weeks learning might show me how to do that.

I'm enjoying the learning but seriously hope I can retain it all to use and share in our hub. I guess you have to use it often until it's embedded.
