GCE L2 Units 3 & 4 Reflection

 In Units 3 and 4 I learned more about ways that I can utilize Google Calendar to make appointments. I also learned about better ways to connect with guardians (most of which I already use). Finally, I learned more about a few different extensions that I had not used before.

One of the biggest takeaways is that this might be a better way to schedule Student-Led Conferences than what we are currently using (Signupgenius). I like that it automatically puts things on the Google Calendar which is what I use for all of my school and personal scheduling. 

I also am really enjoying the extension Grammarly, I had heard about it before, but had not tried it. So far in this blog post it has helped me three times. :)

    Great reflection, Amy. I love the very end of your blog! How cool to install and USE something like Grammarly, not just once, but THREE TIMES! Hope you can look into appointment slots for scheduling conferences in the future. I feel like it might be easier to manage than SignUpGenius. The challenge should give you a good feel for what it's like to create appointment slots, have someone book, then cancel, so you can see how easy it is! Keep up the awesome work and enjoy continuing to use Grammarly!

    Amy, my school also does Student Led Conferences and we have also used SignUpGenius for the entire school. I agree with Lissa when trying to schedule multiple children with different teachers it gets messy with the Google appointments.

    I was wondering what are your expectations for the students conferences? We have them include details and images of their work from all of their classes, MAPS data, and SMART goals for the rest of the semester.

GCE L2 Units 1 & 2 Reflection

 A. I have learned some new ideas for Flipped Learning and Blended Learning. I am excited to do more with a hyperdoc. B. I think that this will be great for my 4th Grade National Park Research. I currently put links in my Google Classroom, however, with a hyperdoc it will all be in one place where the students can write notes directly on the doc. I think it will help with not having to move between multiple tabs and platforms.

GCE L2 Units 6 & 7 Reflection

 In Units 6 and 7 I learned about some features that I didn't know about that I will need to do more research on. I am not fluent in adding videos and YouTube Creator Studio and it is really neat some of the options that they have. I also learned some great lesson ideas that I will be taking forward with me. I was really excited about the idea of a Choose Your Own Adventure Slide Deck. I have used interactive notebooks with Slides before for research and presenting information but this is another fun way to use it. I think I may use this with my 5th Graders this year. I am going to head to the library to check out some books to give them ideas for it.
