WFRC #7/3: identify informal & formal ways you are monitoring the effects of your changed practices/intervention on learner outcomes. Explain the reflections and tweaks you are making along the way WFRC #7/4: Describe how you will keep a record of each of the above in a manageable way (‘cos you won’t otherwise remember all your many micro-decisions and why you made them)

  Tweak: How to collaborate and create integrated lessons to improve literacy, skills, and rewindable learning using Miro Online whiteboard.

Over the next five weeks, I am going to start classes with “Miro ” which incorporates literacy skills, Algebraic skill This is also to go through rewardable learning techniques and make sure students recall what they have already learned. I will also present exemplars of contextual questions to unpack keywords, skim reading techniques, matching activities, and video clips. Last week I set all my lessons for Calculus on Miro and trailed with my class virtually due to COVID. learners engagement was huge and 
I am also going to maintain a log to check student progress and keep a record of this on an excel spreadsheet. Testing of progress will be conducted at regular intervals so that if changes to teaching techniques need to be implemented they can be.

WFRC #7/1: Restate your inquiry question and your theory of action/chain of events (so you keep your eyes on the prize) WFRC #7/2: Describe how you will collect information about the implementation of your changed practices/intervention (so it is clear what you do differently)

 My Learners have completed all the internal and now working on the second externals.

There are two external Algebra (4credits) and Calculus (5credits). I have enrolled most of them for one external and few of them for both externals in due to COVID time constraints and their carrier pathways.

My learners struggling with contextually based questions, careless mistakes with skills, and rewind the learning. Recently my daughter introduced to this cool idea of Miro Online which will address all the issues, lessons are the interactive and enjoyable and ideal tool for remote learning. The three areas are indicated on the flow chart with the respective implementation strategies.

Learn, Create, Share workshop

 How to collaborate and create integrated lessons using Miro Online whiteboard.

Yesterday, We had our second Manaiakalani Cluster Create workshops where the whole cluster comes together to talk about the "create" part of Learn, Create, Share.

Dorothy Apelu, Mele Suipi Latu, and I were lucky enough to run one of the workshops about the Miro online board which I used to teach my students during the lockdown. Link

Here are some high lights and a workshop Link.
