RuConnected #74 Post Slide2Learn

Special Guest - Bronwyn McLeod Biggest takeaways Andrew Churches message about teaching in the digital age and student engagement engagement is not entertainment Cathy Hunt’s infographic based on Andrew’s keynote Graham Brown-Martin’s importance of context and tools chosen to make a difference. The same tech doesn't suit everywhere. One size doesn't fit all even the oldest tech can be transforming - its how its used. http://learning-reimagined.com/ http://learning-reimagined.com/author/gbm/page/3/ Using sensory objects and then bringing in tech to add value- share the experience make it it in to more. Eg play dough, Lego real life to digital shared with the world. http://twentytwowords.com/all-50-states-summarized-in-lego-scenes-did-they-get-your-state-right/ Adele Brice’s Keynote and workshop - enthusiasm and whole school approach to Challenge Based Learning has had a huge impact. Students are infected by the staff enthusiasm Showbie Wonga Park PS - Challenge Based Learning iBooks Accepting the Challenge Challenge Based Learning - Power Supercharging Stopmotion - Cathy Hunt Art Teacher - refreshingly different perspective - fantastic presenter, very inspiring Handy Tips Technique to encourage children to invest in the process not the product Lego - children spend almost entire session setting up & last 30 secs on stop motion Start really simple quick activities Playdough tower - create, evaluate, move on Create stop motion with one hand behind your back Use a stand - Never move the Camera iPads are hardier than you think - clay washes off Kids are inspired by the materials, create their own, collect, bring in. Boys are less inclined to edit Don’t over procedurise the experience Activities Timelapse Tower Stop Motion Magic - rolling ball Fold green paper in half to create background and foreground Students can create cheat sheets for iMovie and Creating Stop Motion Create a creature appearing from and disappearing into the background Foldify Stopmotion (Green Screen) Lots of creativity and imagination in creating characters and backgrounds Apps iMotion HD Green Screen by Doink Doink Animation and Drawing iMovie http://www.ipadartroom.com/author/cathy/ Cathy.hart@tlc.qld.edu.au Cathy@ipadartroom.com @art_cathyhunt Biggest successes - Lois Workshop where we actually made 2 complete episodes of SLOTS (Slide2Learn Online Television Show) Thanks to Rod Hystead & Slide2Learn team for all their help and thanks to all participants who worked hard to produce the show and entertain their audience. http://loisath.edublogs.org/2014/07/06/slide2learn-2014/ Handy information Copyright slideshare - loaded with information for educators http://www.slideshare.net/nationalcopyrightunit/140702-slide2-learn ITunes U Schools can create accounts Create a course, share resources and notes Private or Public New version - discussion Heather Bailie’s Storify about Slide to Learn https://t.co/gCJLhPXfcV
