DFI Session 4 Dealing with Data.

Today's session was again rather intense and full on. As usual we started with karakia and then broke off into our digital bubbles for WWW. That was the fun part and also a time to reflect and share our PMIs.

The Topics today consisted of Manaiakalani pedagogical Tohatoha Sharing
Lockdown demonstrated sharing explosion. Newsletter preseneted. Sharing since time began - Things that we remember, Social Media was the place to be to share our lives, this was an additional medium for sharing. 1 - 1,  class - class,  school - school, local community - local community   digital - beyond global

Why was Blog chosen as a sharing tool for learners? "Googlr Searches" Sharing to finish learning, Sharing to Learn
Hapara - Making Groups
Google Forms - Creating forms

            


               



MyMaps.google.com was the Deep Dive of the session where we had to create our own Map with 5-6 destinations. I decided to create some places that might be interesting to visit off the beaten track in Windy Wellington.


Other creators were able to go to maps globally.

Google sheets presented by Gerhard was next and this was very difficult to comprehend even though I thought I had a good understanding of how to add data, analyse it use charts and write something about what the stats showed. Totally lost the plot from having a play on there. The task was to use the blog entries from one of my students, insert a chart and then add it to my Professional Blog. I discovered that the student who I chose for stats had very little having only started this term to add blogs which is why the graph is a bit scarce. More practice to get it right.

A graph Take 1,

  1. Talofa Seunga,
    You look like you have managed the sheets activity well! You have a graph of the data. I see you have a screenshot rather than an embedded chart. The only disadvantage is that if you update the chart we will not see changes.
    I like the way you have added useful things to remember to your blogpost. This makes it rewindable and specific to you.
    Tofā soifua,
    Maria

  2. Good on you for giving all these new tools a go Seunga. You did so very well with your MyMap and I enjoyed looking at the places you suggest to visit. Your blogging spreadsheet/graph gives lots of information about the blogger and is a task that I'm sure your students will enjoy doing in the near future.
