 Dealing With Data

Sharing and the ability to connect ... as being the hook.

Why Blogger?

  I

It is very useful to teach the digital citizenship skills that all learners need. What to do when you face 'bumps in the road'.

Sharing to start new learning.

Hapara Hot Tips: You can check the blog comments by clicking on the Blogger icon-you may need to click on the more options down arrow.


Google Forms: I have never created one.. lets go!

Measurement Questionnaire

I can see the use for the class-like pre-post collection of data. Then it would be useful to collate/analyse the data using the tools within the forms.



 Googlemap

Well I felt so frustrated!!!! Created a cool map then I pressed the delete the layer and all my efforts disappeared. I did say a swear word out loud and almost cried, silly eh but I recognise how learners feel when they get to a roadblock. Take a deep breath and carry on. I can hear the others all saying they are posting their maps on their blogs and I am just sitting here.



 
 Well after a few deep breaths look what I managed to do.

Google spreadsheets
Use this button to be able to find things like-averages-sum-min-max-
You can freeze the headers and columns by using the hand icon to drag the line across what you want to freeze, handy when you still want to see the headings of each column in a long list.

Using the explore- you can highlight the data, column you want and then it will suggest graphs that will represent your data.
Manipulating spreadsheets WILL BE IN EXAM
Highlight what data columns you need- then click on INSERT then CHART then click on the three dots MOVE TO OWN SHEET


Blog Analysis

This year
                                                               Blog Posts 2020

Interesting that May had the most posts and we had returned to school. I would of predicted that during lockdown would be higher.



75%of the audience is from New Zealand and 25% from the United States.

  • What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow as a professional?

Our team is using Google sheets for our planning. It is an easy way to have everything in one place.
I found the analysis tips for the sheets helpful as I am usually looking over my team leader's shoulder as she does it.

  • What did I learn that could be used with my learners?  

I have never used Google forms before yes I have filled many in but never created one. I can see how I could use this in the class as a pre and post-test or information gathering. Would it need my support as an adult as I am working with littlies? (Yes I would have to do the reading).

  • What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow in my personal life?

Just the simple tips of organising and sorting data- I kind of get some parts of it now.

    Kia ora Lisa,
    How do you model the sharing in your studio so you can support your learners to face 'bumps in the road'? I do not think it ever to early to start these teachings and let children hear these messages that contribute to developing a strong citizen for our community.
    Great perservence with your map, as you say it is good for us to experience what our learners experience often on a daily basis. You certainly have some great walking spaces on the East Side!
    As I stated on Kelly's blog "It was interesting watching Manaiakalani's blog post per day during lockdown and then when back at school. During lockdown they were averaging approx 300 blogposts per day every day of the week, which then jumped to around 450 per day when back at school. I think this really shows how embedded blogging is in the daily teaching and learning in that cluster.
    From Te Ara Tūhura data I can see that we are still having a surge in blog posts at the end of the week indicating to me that we are still in a Monday/Tuesday-Learn, Wednesday, Thursday-Create and Friday-Share.
    It is a real shame that Google Forms cannot have audio inserted into it as this would make it much more accessible for learners when completing the form. Maybe this is something you and i could feedback to Google? I can show you tomorrow.
    Nga mihi,
    Mark

Sites: Enabling Access

   Making connections with people beyond just who we know. Technology gives us the ability to connect in ways we haven't done before. Not just for learning but for the holistic checking in and well being of people.  We grow from each other in a community willing to share, listen, and help problem-solve. You have to share to be connected-it's a two-way thing. You need all four aspects of the kaupapa for connections to work. SITES   Remember the 3 click rule! sites stuff Looking at other sites- what works well? - from the learners and whanau perspective? Remember the 'window dressing' from last week. Feedback from our 'work in progress site' our next step is to link buttons to slides and to add a reading section.  Will we want photos of the teachers for reading or images about reading?  Need to add recordings of us reading instructions/books. Look at Brogan's slides for her decodable texts- Lisa to create and steal from this idea. (Brogan said yes :) I spent ...

 Visible Learning Manaiakalani Kaupapa : Visible.                             Can you see it or can you not? Teaching and learning visible in the home,  making whanau and teachers partners in the learning, and visibility between colleagues. We need to challenge ourselves... what have we hung as teachers that have contributed to failure? We have kept it hidden and secret from whanau and learners. For too long success has gone to those learners that have to 'guess' what is going on in the teacher's mind. What were the responses we guessed/predicted the teachers wanted?  Now we have to think about what parts of our information really need to be kept private? Not the everyday functioning of teaching and learning! Think about lockdown.. the stuff on the classroom walls is useless! Online stuff is useable and accessible.  We need to limit passwords and barriers to make it accessible for all-Think ab...
