What did I learn that increased my understanding of Share within the Manaiakalani kaupapa and
pedagogy?


Today we focused on the "share" kaupapa of manaiakalani it was interesting to see the development
of sharing in the classroom and how it has changed over time
I was able to reflect on the positives of the development our students now have a purposeful
audience they can share their learning with the wider world and get
feedback from all parts of the globe.It makes learning and sharing more accessible for
both learners and teachers. I am reflecting on the importance of positive and helpful blogger
comments and setting my students up so they can begin to
do this on their own.


Google keep-Another useful tool to make workflow smooth and easy . I have got links to other class sites to gain more knowledge and ideas as to how i could implement this in my own class.

Window dressing
Reflecting on how to make my class site engaging and interesting for my students -

we have been introduced to eg eye dropper can be used for design aspects
