DFI Week Four - Reflections

Today's session was focussed on Dealing with Data and it offered different ways to organise (filter/sort/display) data (Google Spreadsheets), but also how to create and share learning content using Google Forms and Mymaps. It was a very interesting session for me as the information presented today filled in some gaps in my knowledge (Spreadsheets), but also added new learning (Mymaps and Forms). Along with practice, it will help me improve the way I present ideas to my students.

This is one of the tasks that we had - displaying and interpreting data from one of our students' blog posts and visitors:



I'm looking forward for next sessions about creating with Google sites.

DFI Week Three - Reflections

Today's session was focussed on Media and it offered different ways to create and share using Google apps and YouTube. It was a very productive session for me as the information presented today filled in some gaps in my knowledge (YouTube channels, Google Slides and Drawing). Along with practice, it will help me improve the way I present ideas to my students.

This is one of the tasks that we had:



I'm looking forward to our next session on spreadsheets.

DFI Week Two - Reflections

Today's session was very useful mostly for organizing my workflow, but also learning more about how to use Meet to connect with my students.
There was a lot of information presented, some filled in gaps (Gmail, Calendar, Meet), some completely new (Keep, Tabs), that I need to sort out through a thorough exploration. It was a positive experience and I am curious to see what the next session will bring.
