Biggest takeaways

Andrew Churches message about teaching in the digital age and student engagement engagement is not entertainment Cathy Hunt’s infographic based on Andrew’s keynote Graham Brown-Martin’s importance of context and tools chosen to make a difference. The same tech doesn't suit everywhere. One size doesn't fit all even the oldest tech can be transforming - its how its used. http://learning-reimagined.com/ http://learning-reimagined.com/author/gbm/page/3/ Using sensory objects and then bringing in tech to add value- share the experience make it it in to more.

Handy Tips

Technique to encourage children to invest in the process not the product Lego - children spend almost entire session setting up & last 30 secs on stop motion Start really simple quick activities Playdough tower - create, evaluate, move on Create stop motion with one hand behind your back Use a stand - Never move the Camera iPads are hardier than you think - clay washes off Kids are inspired by the materials, create their own, collect, bring in. Boys are less inclined to edit Don’t over procedurise the experience
