DFI Reflection. (In place of Lost DFI #4)

DFI      Reflection (In place of Lost DFI #4)

As I lost my DFI#4 Blog, I thought that I would try to remember parts of it.

• What did I learn that increased my understanding of Manaiakalani kaupapa and pedagogy?

Once again I found Dorothy's "Words of Wisdom" very inspiring. It is easy for me to assimilate into my thinking because I feel I hold the same beliefs and values. Love the "asides."

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

I found parts of today very hard to get my head around. I found multi-modal Learning Sites and Multi Text Data Bases quite new concepts for me. I felt that I couldn't really contribute because I hadn't had any experience with either of them. [Something else that I need to delve deeper into.] I felt a bit inadequate. I enjoyed thinking about my "Site", and had good ideas of what I wanted to put into my site.

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

I am getting more confident with Blogging. Now, instead of just helping my students with the content of their Blog, [i.e. the writing], I can now help them insert images/ pictures/photos and POST it.I also don't need the teacher to open up the student's Blog for 'us.' I can help the student open up their own Blog- i.e. I know where and how to find it.

More confident around devices... They will become essential, everyday tools that will make my life easier

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

As above... getting better at Blogging. More confident around devices... They will become essential, everyday tools that will make my life easier.
