EducampBOP – a challenge to secondary school teachers! – A Box of Thistles

https://aboxofthistles.wordpress.com/2015/08/08/educampbop-a-challenge-to-secondary-school-teachers

A Box of Thistles. Random thoughts on a variety of things but mainly on learning and teaching…. EducampBOP – a challenge to secondary school teachers! August 8, 2015. August 8, 2015. Well, today was my first “ Educamp. I know that each subject area has their own “conference” languages have “ Langsems. So many approaches can be used and adapted across subject areas and as junior programmes are re-organised to be more open, task-based, cross-curricular and student-centred, there is a need to share practice...

I saw this on my Twitter feed this week; “lf you don’t know where you are going you’ll end up someplace else.” ( Yogi Berra. What if somewhere else is better than where you were going? And how much more might you learn on the way there? Travel broadens the mind, they say but your mind has to be open to being changed. Just recently I read “ For want of a Nail.

Marnel van der Spuy: June 2015

http://mvdspuy.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html

Tuesday, June 30, 2015. At the start of the year there was a buzz on twitter about choosing one word for the year to focus on. I really liked the idea as I have my own opinion around Goals or Resolutions. As can be seen in my blog post in 2014). The word I chose was ' open. And I listed numerous points to 'guide' me throughout the year. Transformation, by renewing my mind with new knowledge/learning - ( I am continuing my reading and wrote a reflection on. Revisiting transformation and teaching practice.

Marnel van der Spuy: The hunt is still on...

http://mvdspuy.blogspot.com/2015/08/the-hunt-is-still-on.html

Sunday, August 9, 2015. The hunt is still on. This weekend I learnt that the platform I have been using with my 5 year old students for their ePortfolios will be moving to paid memberships in September. When reading the content of the email, I became really frustrated as I have been using Kidblog for a number of years successfully with my students. After a while I realised that although I felt disappointed that I now had to look for other alternatives, I had to look at the positive in this situation.

Marnel van der Spuy: May 2015

http://mvdspuy.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html

Thursday, May 21, 2015. Modern Learning Practice - edchatNZ. What great timing" I thought, seeing this week's edchatNZ topic, as this has been discussed at last weekend's Educamp in Hawkes Bay. Due to me facilitating a blogging session on the Saturday, I was unable to attend the session around Modern Learning Practice and I was rightly exited to learn more. However, I think that [at times] too many emphasis are being placed on the 'environments' rather than the practice. Marnel van der Spuy. One of the s...

Marnel van der Spuy: Reading - not a challenge at home anymore

http://mvdspuy.blogspot.com/2015/06/reading-not-challenge-at-home-anymore.html

Wednesday, June 10, 2015. Reading - not a challenge at home anymore. In collaboration with a colleague, I have [again] presented the Reading Together Programme to parents. A highlight for students were when the mobile library to came to our school as they now have their own library cards. What I like about this programme is that families/wh ā. One of the feedback highlights was when a parent said that her involvement in this programme [with her child] motivated her to become a reader herself again! Conne...

Marnel van der Spuy: Teaching practice and Learning opportunities

http://mvdspuy.blogspot.com/2015/08/teaching-practice-and-learning.html

Friday, August 14, 2015. Teaching practice and Learning opportunities. I was fortunate enough to visit yet another school, leading the way around MLP. One thing that stood out was how students were able to talk about their learning. That was a good indicator that students own their learning. I could see that students enjoy sharing and collaborating with others. (using Google Docs in their learning). Students should evaluate their own learning to be able to tell if they are making progress. The hunt is st...

Saturday, June 20, 2015. Revisiting transformation and teaching practice. As Term 2 is about to conclude, I feel that I should reflect once more on my teaching practice. I have made my students the focus, placed them in the centre and built on prior knowledge. I made a huge effort to individualize (but not personalize) the learning for each student. A blog post by Derek. Have I used ' the three keys to unlock transformation potential. I feel that knowledge building is supported through the SOLO Inquiry m...
