The Educated Kiwi
Getting work handed in the easy way.
As I come to using Google apps more and more I find it very easy for my marking work flow. I set the task in Moodle.
So in this case it was a quick lesson on one of the types of modern slavery. They were given these sites as a reference:
Then had to make sure these things were in it as a minimum.
And finally they had to share the presentation with me which since we are all in google apps they just start typing my name and it is there for them to click on.
So the screenshot below shows the work arriving at the end of the day now all I need to do is look at it and I can give feedback and even edit it in place. The final step is for them to present this back to their classmates.
Oh and I guess I should mention that the top message is from my History class with someone handing in their work late after school has finished for the day.

It may not be pretty but this is the modified TEK irpen that we have used for making a plasma screen interactive. The reasoning behind this came from having to put a wiimote in a year one classroom and the projector giving an image that kids would be too short for. So with a slight

Will it Stick?

One of the things we all like to do here at TEK is throw stuff at the wall and see if it sticks and I have to say that most times in education you have to run up to the wall and push it on extra hard to make it stay. This can get exhausting
