Te Hiku - Connected Learners: SHARE 2019 Staff Meeting Term 3 - G Suite Training

Positive Thoughtful Helpful

The Term 3 staff meeting is looking at Connected Learners and discussing the different ways that we communicate with each other. 

We discussed the following questions:How do you prefer to SHARE?

• Does it make a difference whether the content you are sharing is happy or sad, positive or negative? 
• Does it make a difference whether it is personal or professional, whether it includes others or only yourself?
• Has this changed in recent years? If so, how? 
• If not, why do you think that is? 

Jorja and I discussed the fact that we would be more likely to share negative information face to face or via a phone call rather than email as text can be taken out of context.

Professionally, I would be more likely to share electronically than through a conversation unless it was a sit down meeting.

The introduction of technology has changed things hugely. You can attend meetings without being in the same physical space, you can speak to family overseas without it costing $1.99 per minute.

The Summer Learning Journey is an opportunity for students to avoid the summer slump and they can hit the ground running at the beginning of the year. It is away for students to accelerate in their learning in an authentic context using their blog as a vehicle.
