crowd sourced resource. How can you

the year with a bang!
How
To Use Crowdsourcing In The Classroom Increasingly we are seeing crowd
sourced documents created to grow a ready resource to meet a specific
need. You may like to check out some of
them here:
Knowing
my learners – in the Universal Design for Learning site in the vln. Tessa has posted a link to the video by Principal Baruti Karele.
“You can't teach them if you don't know
them."
This could be a very valuable resource for thinking how you
are going to get to know your learners in the New Year.
In this video he asks us to
ask ourselves what we know about our learners:
· keeping them inspired about learning and
motivated to excel?
· their learning styles?
· their goals and aspirations?
· their needs and interests?
· their experiences and realities
· their challenges obstacles and distractions?
· their peers?
· their neighbourhood?
· their parents
· their history and culture?
This post
by Beth Holland is well worth a read.
“With what we'll call Writing 3.0, students and teachers can:
· Organize and draft through handwriting, drawing, text and voice
· Collaborate and incorporate multimodal feedback
· Create a final product that demonstrates mastery and communicates
understanding beyond the literal confines of paper”
When the ipad is used for the entire process of crafting a piece
of writing from planning, organising, drafting, through to collaborating with
others and incorporating feedback and feed-forward the transformative power of
the mobile device can be realised.
Following up from this post, you could
check out the writing
page in the blended e-learning literacy site in the vln. This is a co-constructed resource for you to
use, share and add to.
