Kia ora,
We've reached the end of our DFI journey. Today was the exam- thankfully I passed- do not know my percentage yet. It was definitely a test of making sure you slow down and read what the question is asking carefully. Overall it was a good challenge and test of what I have learnt and have been able to do the last term.
This course has been helpful in solidifying my knowledge and confidence using several different apps and resources. I have found it very useful to share my own work and see others to gain different perspectives and new ways of doing activities and thinking. Peer feedback is a great way to reflect on your own practice- especially in areas you are not confident in yet.
It was a good model for online learning as well- helpful given the 5+ week lockdown we are currently in. Some good ideas that I have shared to my class.
To reflect on how the course is structured- maybe including a rotation of the bubbles- mixing up the bubbles to increase that natural connection that happens when you are having discourse with colleagues? It was great to interact with new people when doing the create tasks, but generally we were focused on completing that task rather than discussing with peers.
It has been great to see what people have created through DFI and how this could effect their practice in the future. I know I have shared my learning with my students and they have enjoyed it. I look forward to building upon this.
Kia ora Robin. Congratulations on your result. It's been great to see how you've passed on your new knowledge to your learners straight away. I'm glad you found it useful to get feedback from your peers. Thanks for the feedback as well, we're always making tweaks to improve the DFI experience. Enjoy the rest of term and the holidays.
