DFI Cohort 2 2019: Day One

DFI Cohort 2 2019: Day 1
Time to reflect and share with colleagues about what I have learned today. What I write is supposed to answer the following focus four questions:

What did I learn that increased my understanding of Manaiakalani kaupapa and pedagogy?What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow as a professional?
What did I learn that could be used with my learners?
What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow in my personal life?

Here's an overview of our agenda and who was here.

We were supposed to use what we had learned to create our own snazzy Google doc. I did not meet the deadline.




Highlight of the day for me:
This was something Dorothy showed us using a Google doc. You have a shared doc and students have to highlight some text in the doc then write a question which the highlighted text would answer. You write the question in a comments box after inserting another student's email address. Then you assign the question to them and an email gets sent to them and they have to answer the question.
I thought this was very groovy.
