Blended Learning Enabling Agency

Blended Learning Enabling Agency

Blended learning is the use of digital technologies within teaching. Blending learning and technology.

Flipped Learning - giving students the opportunity to learn a concept before coming to the teaching session. 

Could students be creating videos of them practising/doing a strategy? Other students use this to learn from.

Could you save videos in Google Photos and share them with your children? I.e Spelling.

Microsoft 360 ? Children videoing themselves solving maths equations. Same as how we use SeeSaw. 
Students give feedback. 

Important to Note

Teaching students how to use Flipped learning is a very important aspect and this needs to be done
explicitly.

You need to teach students how to watch a video - how to engage with videos, how to take notes
while watching videos. How to use the tracking sheets. How to ask for help when needed.

Digital Storytelling in Scratch
Monika Kem
Raranga Matihiko weaving digital futures
Computational Thinking - unplugged -
Examples of digital stories


Thinking like a computer. How does a computer rank things from smallest to largest? How does it do it so fast? Get your children to discuss possible ways of doing this.

Examples of students work. Telling stories using Scratch. Children
have coded each story. Some stories are interactive, like a Pick a Path.

Rarangamatahika website has kids speak digital outcomes.
