Week 5
This week we learned about the importance of visibility in teaching.
Making visible images of learning and being together in a group is a way to foster
group identity and learning. ... It can serve as a memory of learning in the classroom,
allowing children and adults to reflect on, evaluate, and build on their previous work and ideas.

Multi Model Approach:
Humans experience the world via modality, that is, our five senses: vision, hearing, taste,
smell and touch. Given these are the physical ways we ingest information, it is therefore
valid to explore both concrete and abstract topics via these lenses. For example, think about
Starbucks. What visual cues do you associate with it? And so on for sounds, smells etc.

The purpose of this exercise is to establish what the primary modal inputs are for a brand,
and therefore provide more context around the opinions held of it.

It is worth noting that not all brands are weighted towards modal input. For example, using
Google is less of a sensory experience than going to Starbucks, but we can still use the
modes and senses to explore associations with them in an indirect manner.

Creating a google site:
What can you do with the new Sites?
Build internal project hubs, team sites, public-facing websites, and more—all without designer, programmer,
or IT help. With the new Google Sites, building websites is easy. Just drag content where you need it.

When you create a new site, it’s automatically added to Drive, like your other files stored in Drive. You can edit
a Google Site together with someone else in real time, and see each other’s changes live. Publish the site for
everyone to see, or restrict sharing permissions and make the site accessible only to people you want to share it
with, like vendors or suppliers.

Google Sites websites are responsive, which means they’re optimised for tablets and smartphones, too.
How google can help my students:
Google plays an important role in education by enhancing efficiency, productivity
of teachers and students. Its apps and services foster higher degree of collaboration,
empower students and level the playing field for all. The low priced and free apps
and services can be afforded by all and used widely.

How to improve digital confidence in your class:
The inclusion of technology in the classroom has been shown to improve student participation,
information retention, and overall test performance. One reason for the success of educational
tech is that it boosts student confidence. Students who are secure in their abilities, work harder
and take their educations seriously.
