TIS+TOD+Evidence+Page

How are you using the new learning from TOD? It could be:

 * the link to the blog you created with Allanah and are now using with your kids
 * a snapshot of a mimio you have created to use with your class
 * a podcast you or your students have made
 * an animation you created
 * a link to a site you have used with your students e.g. study ladder.
 * a smackdown you did with your class (remember it doesn't have to be about Google) Here is a link to a bomb countdown timer you could use.

 * **Janelle Jones** || **Rm 16 Blog** || **I learnt about some of the possibilities of using a BLOG in a classroom. This was a totally new thing for me so it was an excellent introduction. I then came away form this with the desire to want to start up a class BLOG. Consequently an ICT Team leader then sat down with me and guided me in making a Room 16 BLOG.** ||
 * Rachelle Hulbert || media type="file" key="animate_keynote.mov" width="300" height="300" || I used Keynote to begin creating an animation. I would use this idea in class for digital story telling and to engage boys (mainly) by giving them the opportunity to present their learning in a different way.

 * Mac Harris || [[image:study_ladder.jpg width="320" height="76"]] || I have used Study Ladder to set class tasks and can set individual tasks to cater for the different levels within my class and also, within the groups the different abilities of the students . The tasks can be maths, literacy, science and other curriculum areas. They are currently using the maths tasks to reinforce their learning strategies in Algebra.
 * Amanda Cook || [[image:Screen_shot_2011-06-08_at_1.33.23_PM.png width="320" height="174"]] || I have created a Maths Blog which will update the changes and progress being made in the Mathematics department and also give links to things that can be used in the classroom.

|| I had a look at Google Books. This has multiple titles with an advanced search that allows you to see if you can view the whole book online. Great for having access to titles we may not have in our hard copy resources and students can read online.

I also looked at Google news timeline. With this tool students can search topics and dates, allowing them access to a variety of different news media articles. || http://www.woodlands-junior.kent.sch.uk/ - range of educational games and worksheets for students http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/bitesize/ - UK website with resources for teachers and students (use either KS2 or KS3 for intermediate children) || I have used these websites to either hook my children into lessons or for follow up activities. ||
 * Kim Abbot || [[image:kima.png width="317" height="186"]] || I attended the Mimio for beginners, although I do not currently have a mimio board!!!! I can still use mimio through my laptop and projector to utilise all the awesome resources to hook in students and teach myself before I get one!!! ||

Rimu team are using google docs to write a collaborative novel. Fiona Grant also shared ideas about how to use google docs. || You can use Dropbox like the cloud to drop in any files that you want access to from any computer. In other words all your files will be stored on the internet. It's free and to start you get a 2GB allowance. As you refer more people the size of your online storage increases. It's means you don't have to always have to put things on pendrives or necessarily take your school computer home to work on something cos you can access it from the internet. You do have to download some software onto the computer and install it however. || Blake Carlin || || Cheers Rob - insight to use of filetype e.g filetype: ppt when google searching has proved invaluable whilst perusing the internet for teaching and learning resources. || Alannah King was inspiring and I immediately strated up class blogg a great forum for student voice and interacting with global communities. || veezzle.com (copyright -free images) shelfari (book review) woodlands - junior kent || "Walking the talk" I gained knowledge of the useful sites opposite. || Class blog ideas from Alana King Spell city website for spelling-http://www.spellingcity.com/ ||  || Hi Room 8!! I hope you are enjoying your day off. Well, today at school I have been learning new I.C.T tools to use with you to help with your learning. Mrs Mills organised a fun day with all the teachers and we had to go to class. The first part of the day I was with Mrs Stock (Rimu House Leader) learning all about the Inquiry process and tools to help when asking questions etc. The picture attached below shows just one application which I had fun playing with today. The second half of the day I learnt about E-portfolios and I can’t wait to do this with you! I met a special lady called Allanah King and she has been blogging for ages and is a professional! So we will learn lots of things from her and we will get to check out her blog. Anyway, I enjoyed my day and look forward to sharing this with you all. || http://www.mathsbuddy.co.nz http://www.multiplication.com/ || These websites were used to hook and extend students during maths lessons. The class blog is being developed and moving towards being student driven. || Digistore -Learning paths are a great way of using digital resources in the classroom. You can create your own learning paths and build or add to these learning paths. You can also share them with others and your colleagues can share their learning paths with you. ||

 * Sue || [[image:Sue_L.png width="480" height="72"]] || I am using Study Ladder in both Literacy and Numeracy. The topics are great! The activities are interactive and the students are very motivated!!! ||
 * Janine ||  || I have used this Mimio template with my students and am hoping to develop more in the future as they really enjoyed the interactive-ness of the programme. ||
 * Aubrey Jeftha
 * Rob || media type="file" key="STOP MOTION.mov" width="300" height="300" || I worked in a great workshop where we learnt how to use our classroom cameras or laptop cameras to take multiple photos and collate them using the software StopMotion. I now see how the kids could use the classroom computer to do this to show learning. In my stopmotion animation I have quickly presented one of the learning intentions for the day. ||

 * Carmel/Kellie || Museum Box Homepage || Using Museum Box as another way for students to present and share their learning. It allows for text, images, video and sound to be shared, is multidimensional and the students can build up a library of museum boxes. We are registered as a school. See Kim or Karen for info on setting up your class accounts. Really user friendly ||

 * Warren || In the morning I attended the Inquiry Tools held by Sarah Stock. The session was well worth it and I have gained valuable knowledge regarding Inquiry Tools.

The afternoon session was with Tessa Grey on Digital Citizenship which gave me many tools to use in the digital world. ||  ||
 * Phil || I attended I Can Animate . It was well worthwhile . I used I Can Animate to introduce my change of rotation. It helps me explain how we develop an electronic circuit.

The students can understand the process from watching the I Can. ||  || Allanah was fantastic and inspired us all to use technology where it is relevant for students' learning. ||  ||
 * Linda Balme || I now know what "apps" are. I saw an Ipad and asked lots of questions about how to use one. I have seen one in use at the Tauranga Art Gallery when the Educator was talking to students. Unfortunately we did not get to use one because the internet did not work for us that day.
 * Carol || I went to "using ipads" workshop which was a complete waste of time. The ipads didn't work on the internet so the presenter started talking about internet connections and I walked out.

The Audio Tools workshop was very good. The presenter was excellent and I learned to use Audio Pal. I was able to record a message for the "Music blog."

@http://tismusic.blogspot.com/ ||  || Shane || || This workshop highlighted where we are infact heading in terms of the school wide push with formative assessment at a student, teacher and community level. I believe we are on the right path to slowly implement e-Portfolios once we decide which provider to run with.
 * Kathy ||  ||   ||
 * 

It will not happen overnight especially at the classroom level, where teachers need to be continually exposed to effective formative assessment through everything we do at TIS, not just within professional learning.

Very exciting times with a big shift in teacher pedagogy over the next year! || was extremely valuable. It allowed me to question our thinking as a group and set some direction moving forward. We had begun to investigate e-portfolios as a school and thought we had a set path in which we would follow. However Nick challenged this and we have since rethought the direction in which we will take.
