CREATE

Shotover Learning Process
CONNECT - CREATE - COMMUNICATE

We have spent a few days CONNECTING with the Bee-Bots; how they work, following instructions and how to look after them. The CREATE part of the learning process at Shotover was making a game to 'change' our learning in maths, from our maths pebbles.  We had to think about who would play our game and what the rules would be. Initially I though that to COMMUNICATE our ideas we'd write the instructions but felt that a movie would reach more students and hook in the students who I was working with.

Next steps could be: 

• create a Bee-Bot 'area' with QR codes for the games
• have our experts teach others how to use the Bee-Bots
• new Bee-Bot users to then create a how to use Bee-Bots movie

What's not happening:

• using the language of the learning process (connect, create, communicate) on a regular basis

How can I influence what's not happening:

• develop visuals with the language of the learning process to use in the learning habitats 
• at different points in our learning stop - and discuss if we are connecting, creating or communicating)
