Term Two already! My TL and I have spent time organising a Web Quest to link in with the HSIE Unit Australia You're Standing In It (Stage 2). She has very kindly (and might I say selflessly) rescheduled her Admin time so that it coincides with my Computer Lab time. The class will be divided into two grps. She will take half and go through the various print and video resources we have available in the library, and my grp will scroll through websites that we have selected to decide which ones are most suitable. We are starting with brainstorming of ideas using the bubbleus.com mind mapping tool and going from there.
The Task: Design a Seven Day Itineary for your family to use when travelling around Australia. You must include at least two man made and two natural sites within the travel plans.
Info about these sites must be included as well as modes of transport, clothes etc needed to make the trip enjoyable.Indigenous perspectives will also need to be integrated.
The end product is to present all the work as a Travel magazine or brochure.
This is still a work in progress and I will evaluate its success throughout the term. We have both decided that we want to be guided by the chn so lots of feedback frm them will be encouraged.
I find it amazing that I am actually THINKING DIFFERENTLY since starting this Course. Don't get me wrong I've always been a fairly hard worker but I can see that I was definitely becoming "stale" in the strategies I use to stimulate chn's thinking. What a learning curve for me.
