Seesaw - student voice

-

 How can we increase student voice using Seesaw? one thing we could do would be to set up an activity asking children what they thought of our fun run? Was it fun? What ideas could make it better? This could be multimodal and include drawings, labels, speech, photos etc. It would be valuable and useful feedback for planning future events.

Tip - in games, set up so it's pairs against pairs - means more discussion. Link to session handout (image above) - some really great resources linked in this PDF that could be used in class as well as during home learning.

Toolkit: Your Daily Drive, hosted by Fiona Grant

Fiona's slides Daily was the key here - Fiona's message is that students need to practise using their Drive everyday. This needs to be routine and is part of being a 'Cyber Smart Learner'.  For example - can you find your Drive quickly. There are three quick ways to find your Drive - it's good to know these. Some people like bookmarks, some like short cuts... We need to be planning and designing opportunities each day for students to work with Drive  - this doc is for teachers - we can check there are opportunities for children to do at least one activity similar to these each day. So for example, at writing time teachers might use the 'Weekly Writing Doc' for students daily journalling. These 'cyber smart' learning and practise activities would be a part of the learning already happening, rather than 'another thing', or something done as well as. There's lesson plans for teachers. It would be good to include something like these  Daily ...
