WHAT A PROFESSIONAL LEARNING NETWORK SHOULD BE -- CCTI 1.2.2


I read through all the ideas in the group and made and attempt to summerise all our ideas. What do you think members?
  1. It should be easily accessible by all members in the network to allow members to easily share their information and access each others ideas.
  2. Should provide applicable and immediate solutions to the challenges faced in the profession.
  3. Allow members get feedback after ideas from the network are applied.
  4. Provide a continuous learning experience for members in the network.
  5. Should be relevant to all those in the network.
  6. Should provide some level of confidentiality.

Hello Group! I have tried to comb through the internet for websites that will provide support in determining the best digital literacies education strategy for a school.

MY REVIEW OF TWO LESSONS THAT INFUSE DIGITAL LITERACY 4.3.3

LESSON A Click here to view This is a Geography lesson entitled "Our Fractured Earth" . In the lesson, the learners work in groups and generally do their research and presentations on a media of their choice. The learners use mainly power point slides they prepare themselves as opposed to those prepared by the teacher. This clearly indicates how the lesson goes a long way in engaging learners to create meaningful content as they collaborate in their groups. This knowledge is later shared. Digital methodologies and pedagogies are seen in the teacher allowing learners to use any gadgets they are permitted by their parents to use. The learners also go ahead to solve real problems when one of the groups creates a Lego motion animation representing what it might be like to be in an earthquake. The objectives in the lessons are clearly stipulated and show that digital literacy is infused. For instance, one of the objectives says that the learners will explore, analyse and evalua

Why analysing your learners may be very important. 3.6.4

There has been a heated debate in our group discussion on the importance of certain elements of analysis of students in the ASSURE lesson planning model. These are ethnic background (to what extent should we analyse these students background? By country of origin, tribe, skin colour or others?), What learning styles need to be considered in what kind of lessons? and How do this analyses auger with the use of technology? I strongly agree that analysis of students is important and MUST be done if proper planing for individual needs in a classroom is to be successful. However, only those criteria which may affect the teaching learning process should be considered. For instance, if you are going to handle a lesson on piggery in agriculture, you must consider religious affiliation as an issue otherwise some denominations may have a problem at the end of the day. The same would definitely not be true if you are handling "law of diminishing returns" in the same subject. Some
