What am I proud of?
I am proud to say that from everything I have learnt from DFI I am now already implementing it into my classroom practice. The response from the children has been incredible and it has opened my eyes to the different routes I can do for enhancing the learning.
What do I regret?
Nothing from the course but after finishing it I regret not taking advantage of what Google has to offer sooner.
What will I be taking forward into the new era of schooling?
This course has given me the confidence I needed as a beginning teacher to try new ways of learning. Throughout my time at university, I was stuck in some ways and did not think there were other options but after this course, it has broadened my thinking and it makes my planning something to look forward to now as I am excited to take what I have learned and work it in with my learners.
Not only in the classroom with my students do I look forward to using the skills but also with my personal life around the use of technology and making the most of the tools. I feel the amount of time that I will save using my device will be beneficial.
A huge thank you to the Maniakalani team for the effort and time you put into the DFI especially over distance. I am lucky to have been given the opportunity to take part.
