Orientation - Class Sites for Visible Teaching & Learning

 Part of our Orientation day is to support teachers to build a class site that will lead learning in their classroom for 2020. 

The Manaiakalani Programme hinges on class sites that provide visible and rewindable learning. MOre about this can be read here. Class sites can be created so that teaching is visible and learning is visible and rewindable. Class sites are the enactment of the Visible, Ubiquitous, Connected and Empowered kaupapa of The Manaiakalani Programme. 

Our programme for this session can be viewed here on our cluster site.

Participants are supported during this PLD session to create a class site that they can build on and develop as the year progresses. Participants view each other's sites and provide feedback. The sheet with site details and feedback are on our cluster site here.

Orientation 2022 - Connecting with Manaiakalani

Orientation 2022 took place on 25th January 2022. The Orientation day is an opportunity for teachers new to our cluster schools to connect with the kaupapa and pedagogy of The Manaiakalani Programme.

Schools are invited to send teachers for this PLD opportunity so they can experience the Learn Create Share pedagogy as they learn about the Manaiakalani Programme. This is a collegial space where they can access support and develop a deeper understanding of The Manaiakalani Programme and what it offers them as a teacher in a school in our Tairāwhiti cluster and especially as a teacher in a 1:1 digital environment.

Details of your Orientation Day can be found on our cluster site here.

The participants will create an online profile which brings together learning about being Cybersmart, learning about digital tools and then sharing their creations. 

Their online profiles are included in this presentation. 2021 profiles from participants are included as well.

Orientation 2021

This year we held our Orientation day with teachers who are new to our cluster. The Manaiakalani Orientation contributes to a programme of professional learning that supports our people to confidently connect with the goals of our education programme, including raising educational outcomes for our young people through effective teaching in future focused communities of learning.

Today's participants worked within the Learn Create Share pedagogy to connect with the kaupapa of The Manaiakalani Programme Outreach.

 

To experience the Learn Create Share pedagogy our participants explored online profiles and the Cybersmart thinking of how to advertise ourselves positively online. 

 

 They created their own online profile using a range of tools. Here are their profiles shared in a slide deck. Take a peek and please leave a comment.
