Digital Fluency Intensive #9 - Exam day

Hallelujah! I am definitely thrilled to have passed the Level 1 of the  Google Certified Educator exam. It put into practice a lot of what we had covered in DFI. 

Our last session of DFI covered the term 'Ubiquitous' - Anytime, Anywhere, Any pace. 

This means, due to digital affordances, our learners have the potential to be experiencing high quality learning experiences right now while we are here at DFI. This is especially important and crucial for the learning of our students who generally are exposed to 30,000,000 less words than students living in higher decile areas. 

The following image shows the effects the Summer Learning Journey can have on students who take part in the holidays. As teachers, if we make it an everyday practice to make all learning rewindable, and check on our learning online during the break, then we are ensuring that all of our students have the tools they need to be successful. I found this rewindable accessibility especially helpful during the Level 1 exam. 

I feel very grateful to have experienced and tried out the various skills and tools covered in the 9week DFI course. More exciting than passing the exam, are the rich rewindable resources/tools now available to us! Knowing where to find it and being able to help others with new things I've learnt brings more meaning to our Learn, Create, Share journey. 

Thank you to Gerhard and Dorothy for the fun filled whirlwind adventures and life hacks online. I've definitely enjoyed my time.
