Reflection
Week 9
Cohort 2
Dorothy spoke this morning about ubiquitous learning - learning anywhere, anytime, anyway (on any device) and "learning from anyone". The availability of digital technologies and tools makes this possible. This is increasingly the way 21st-century learners engage with their learning and making sense of the world around them. We have a good percentage of students who use their Chromebooks responsibly at home for learning purposes. These students are usually self-directed, they have a good understanding of the implications of the Kawa of Care and they enjoy great parent support. Unfortunately, we have been struggling with a group of students who find it difficult to manage their own learning at home on devices and whose parents are uninvolved. Rewindable learning opportunities contribute to the process of ubiquitous learning. It allows students to revisit learning content in their own time. We should not underestimate the power of rewindable knowledge for the individual. This is precisely what I will be doing with the content we covered during the DFI.
Thank you very much to all the facilitators for their time and hard work during the DFI.
