Week 1

It was our first day at Manaiakalani Digital Training today

I started the year as a beginning teacher at Ruapotaka school who forms part of the Manaiakalani cluster.

I enjoyed the history and how Manaiakalani got started and the journey from then up till now.
As a new teacher who is a bit old style, I have to admit that I have a lot to learn. We learned how to work on and introduce google docks. With this knowledge I can go back to class and introduce the use of these documents in a proper way. I've learned that there are many tools that could save me a lot of time, and by gaining knowledge I can work smarter. I also created my first blog. This is a tool that I will definitely be able to use in my professional career. I found the day very productive and informative.

The course was presented very professional, creative and efficient. I also enjoy the fact that we are a small group and can get personal attention and help when needed.

I am happy that everything I have learned today could be used by me in my daily life, and hopefully I can share this knowledge with my colleges at school.

Today I learned.... I created... and I shared!!! That's what I call a good day.
