Week 4

Week 4 - DFI

This week, I learnt how effectively use google spreadsheets. I think this could really beneficial
to my workflow, learns and my personal life. I have learnt many skills today such as freezing
rows and columns, creating charts, conditional formatting and filtering data. For me this is really useful for analysing my data and selecting data to view results. For my learners, it would be a really useful tool to analyse data, children could analyse the number of people and countries has who viewed their profile. This would a really good statistical tool to use.

To practise my skills in Google sheets. I was given a blogpost to analyse and collect data. Using the data collected I made a graph.




We explored Google My Maps. I thought this was a very interesting tool, as I haven't used this tool before and it was really good to explore ways I could use this in my personal life and with my learners. An example we used in class was, information was collected using Google form about 'where is my dream destination?'. The data collected was then placed on the Google Mymap and we could see everyone's dream destination on the world map. You could use layers on the map to input and separate data to view locations, for example: my class could pinpoint their location about where they are they going in the holidays. For personal use - this could definitely be a good tool for me to make a travel plan.

For literacy, you can use maps → track a journey of a book.

Find a book that you can try that has real places on earth.

E.g. I spy will be a good book.

I SPY NZ history → a good book to follow through.
