Boy I have had a lot to digest to day.
I have never really thought about how important empowering people really is. I have always been a person who follows the rules, a typical "goody two shoes". This idea is really outside of my comfort zone. I need to look at how to empower my students and their families especially when it comes to upholding the cyber safety part of our curriculum.
I do believe learning for our children should be learner centered, future focused, differentiated and personalised
What I am working on is that digital devices do not just a tool to replace the the exercise book but are used for creation if ideas.
Today we have learnt about Google Hangouts- which is blocked at our school. Here again is the dilemma, I can see how Google hangout could work in a classroom setting, I can see the gains it has in collaboration across our senior classrooms, but again I worry about the miss use of this programme when the children are not at school.
