Week 30 Reflect on Your Evidence (Take Action)

Image
S tep 1 : D escribe the data you have collected A s part of my inquiry, I collected data during the “Scan” phase of the Spiral of Inquiry, the aim of which was to find out how my students-to-be felt about learning particularly maths and robotics. This data was used to refine my area of further research.  S ince then all of my data collection has been during the “Take Action” phase as per my Action Plan . O n a daily basis, I have been collecting quantitative data on student collaboration and engagement using tally marks on interval behaviour logs, to see if students were actively collaborating and engaged in their learning when using the Bee-bots. Qualitative data has been collected daily in the form of post-observation interviews with each of the four target students, in order to clarify the findings from the interval behaviour logs.  N umber Knowledge tests were carried out before and after the teaching intervention to obtain before and after quant...

Week 29 - Consider your audiences (Take action)

Image
D uring my inquiry into the use of robotics in maths to increase engagement in maths learning, and subsequently to improve learner outcomes, I have made changes in my practice. My plan is for this change to filter down through my team to other Year 5 teachers at my school. Here I will critically reflect on my wider audiences using Rolfe’s Model of Reflection . S tep 1 - W hat L ooking at my practice within a wider, national, context I need to consider the future of education and the role of new technologies within this. Bolstad et al (2012) suggest that 21st-century learning is ‘an emerging cluster of new ideas, beliefs, knowledge, theories and practices”. Whilst their research project is now 7 years old, one of Core Educations 10 trends for 2019 is Human Capital which states that “we must keep learning and changing to acquire skills and dispositions that meet the needs of different contexts and emerging opportunities.” Essentially 21st Century Learning for 2019. S tep 2 - S o...

Week 27 - Examine Your Cultural Context (Take Action)

Image
A t this stage of my inquiry, I need to reflect upon Whanaungatanga (Building relationships) specifically my interactions and communication with parents/caregivers and whanau. I plan to use Rolfe’s Model of Reflection along with the Culturally Responsive Practice for Maori Scale (CRPMS) (Asil, 2017) as the framework for my reflection. S tep 1 - W hat N ew Zealand has been identified as having one of the widest spreads of student achievement within schools which has led to Maori students being identified by the Ministry of Education as a “priority learner group”. (Asil, 2017) R ussell Bishop (2012), explains that Maori student underachievement was originally thought to be some kind of deficit in Maori people themselves. However, there is ample evidence that Maori are just as capable of being educated as other populations. Agentic teachers are the key to making a difference. According to Bishop and Berryman (2009) “they believe that all of their students can ach...
