Computational Thinking

My notes at Mindlab postgraduate certificate lecture about 'computational thinking' - interesting, how would I incorporate this in my teaching?


Level Up - "Move ya Body"

Our inquiry this term was "Move ya body" - our students from room 6 will show how they love to 'dance'. This video was directed by our students, from the choreography of their dances to the choice of music they selected.  This mini-movie included a few warrior players that talked about what's important to maintain a healthy body.

21st Century Skill - Use of ICT for learning

This year I decided to learn more about digital learning, I'm currently enrolled with MindLab studying in a Postgraduate Certificate in Digital and collaborative learning.  This week we have been looking at 21st Century skills (ITL Research 2012).

This guide describes six rubrics of 21st-century learning, each of which represents an important skill for students for developing:

  • Collaboration
  • Knowledge construction
  • self-regulation
  • real-world problem-solving and innovation
  • the use of ICT for learning
  • skilled communication 
We worked as a group and looked at 'Use of ICT for learning'.
