Visibility
This is about the understanding that the TEACHING AND LEARNING is visible to all particularly whanau. Visibility to students, whanau, teachers and community.
Learning traditionally encompasses a pathway that is a bit of a magical mystery tour for all concerned, success in education generally involved students coming to school with cultural capital that programs children to understand how and what makes you successful at school.
MANAIAKALANI: The intentional use of technology to make teaching and learning visible.
Bio-data, some assessment, behavioral data, should not be visible but the process and planning stuff should be visible.
Student learning should be re-windable and allow students to front-load as well.
2. Deep Dive Exploring a selection of class sites.
Interesting and informative, the task structure allowed me to break down and think about some of the design elements critical to a successful site. The main thing I got out of this was the importance of simple obvious navigation and what is the visual appeal of your site. Another thing I noticed is what does your site say about you as a teacher and your class, does it represent a formulaic or innovative approach to teaching and learning. How much input do the students have regarding the makeup and information on the site.
How would you make your class site a shop kids and adults would like to visit, is it a shop that appeals to ALL types.

KEY IDEAS FOR SITE DESIGN

PLANNING YOUR SITE.......needs to be a coherent design
THEME AND DESIGN........colour layout font.
THE THREE CLICK RULE.........people need to get what they want quickly and easily.
BUTTONS........can the students read?
CAROUSEL........Interactive imagery.
TIMETABLES..........When it is happening.
Lots of redoing today but the goals were to make sure;
1. that all my links worked......checked and sorted, workspaces shared publicly.
2. made the website visible........reworked sharing settings, link in school website.
3. Check workflow so that minimal clicks for information.......working on this. but most info is easily accessible.

TIP FOR THE DAY
SHIFT Z to put files in more than one place but are linked and will be updated from whichever copy is being worked on.Lots of redoing today but the goals were to make sure;
