Teacher Only Day - e-Learning



Today was AMAZING! I am so full of inspiration and motivation that I just don't know what to do with it all.  All 65 staff members were involved in today's teacher only day and from what I understand, everybody has taken something useful away from today.

Each staff member had to opt into 4 sessions for the day and each session was run by a member of the BeLT team.

To begin the day, we shared a video of how to use Google Presentation, by the end of the day, each staff member had to share their Google Presentation with Guy.  Everyone managed to do this, that in itself is awesome.  

In the QR Code session, a small group learnt to scan the codes and then learn't how to create the codes.  Below is a picture of a QR Code (for those that don't know) and these ones are actually edible and placed on top of a cupcake....super exciting! This QR code took them to a cupcake website.  The staff also learn't about Google Drive, Google Forms, Padlet, Doctopus, Goobric, Twitter and much more.  We have since shared a Google Form to all the staff to gain some formal feedback on how they thought the day has gone.  We look forward to reading this and planning our next actions.
