DFI 8

 A fun day today learning focussed around Empowering students, understanding the communities that we are all passionate about, and especially through the Digital Curriculum. As a teacher finding my way through the sea of Digital Tech and meeting the curriculum requirements seemed like another chore. I am so grateful to Manaiakalani for the links to awesome resources where the big thinking has been done. I can now see where I am with the Digital curriculum and where my students need to focus their next steps! Yay! 



Here is a te reo maori resource I made in scratch. I have known of the scratch site for programming, now that I know the potential to custom make digital resources for learning, I am wrapped. Eventhough I don't want to reinvent the world, there are so many localised curriculum areas that need resource support. Ideally you should be able to click on the waka parts and you would hear a kupu maori recording for each part. So cool!

    I'm glad you enjoyed our session on computational thinking. I think you'd be surprised at how much you are already doing in terms of Design and Developing Digital Outcomes. If you're students are making Google Slides and animations, they will already be working somewhere between progress outcomes 1 and 3.
    If you wanted to take it that step further, those snapshots from TKI are a good starting point Progress Outcomes and Snapshots .
