The main idea of today learning was Media. Our focus was on the Create aspect of Learn, Create, Share. Things we learnt:
Live streaming
We learnt about live streaming and different tools we can use to live stream. I had never considered how drones etc could be used in the school context, it was really interesting.Youtube playlists
In the past I had only shared/ added one video at a time on our learning site or blogs. It was brilliant to learn how to embed a whole playlist. It means that the videos will play one after the other, you can add more videos to the playlist as you need to and it frees up space on your learning site or blog rather than having multiple videos dotted on your page. Here is an example of a playlist I have embedded.Google Drawing
We used google drawing to create an About me Button for the sidebar of our blog. You should be able to see mine there soon.Pick-a-path
Probably my favourite thing that we did today was the pick a path. I didn't know what it was so I was very intrigued.
You can see the maths quiz I have created below but basically you give the person options to click on (in mine it is answers to a question) and depending what they click on it will lead to a different slide.
I feel like the pick a path could be a fun learning activity that I will try for the students during lockdown. Maybe for maths, vocab work or reading.
Until next time,
Sarah
Kia ora Sarah,
ReplyDeleteThanks for your break down of the day. It's so awesome to read the different feedback about how these are running as it is so new for us too! Hopefully because you have been a part of this you will have some great ideas for how this could work in your space if things dont return to "normal" soon! Good job on creating and embedding a playlist, not the easiest task, but once you have it, it all makes sense. Also cool pick a path - I really enjoy them and getting students to use this to support their learning or for others to learn from is also fun!
See you Thursday!
