Blog #1 What I want to learn from EDCS 640M?

01/30/25

 How do you like to learn?

  • I like to learn by watching someone using technology and following them in what they are doing. I also learn by watching a video or observing someone actually doing something.


What do you hope to learn in this class? 

  • I hope to learn all the technological tools that can help with my work or help me personally. The two tools that we look at which is Google Sheets and Google Forms I know that if I master them, I will be using them with my classes because we only have student textbooks and no teacher's guide or student workbook, so we make our own questions for tests, quizzes, and classwork's. Google Sheets will make calculating my students' grades faster and easier. I will no longer be trying to find a calculator for my grades when it comes to the Master Grade Sheet (MGS), which is used for making students' grades.

How might blogging help you? (Make sure to refer to the 4 Benefits of Making a Teacher blog article from today’s reading)

    I know that blogging will really help me because if I post something, I can get help from teachers all over the world on how to improve myself in teaching or other work-related things. Reading the four important things for making teachers' blogs helps me get more interesting ideas for doing a blog. I know that I do not go online every day. The first benefit is that it can improve my school's online visibility. it has to do with showing that your institution is good or the best choice for people to attend. The second is about parental involvement or engagement, which will really help because this is one of the weakest things in my school: parental involvement. Some parents are so busy that sometimes, when they call the office, they are shocked about their children. some say that they always drop them off every day, but the students are not attending classes. Third, it could create opportunities for professional networking, which is about meeting other hardworking people and sharing ideas or resources to improve yourself or your school. The last is that it can boost your resume and showcase your teaching profession, which will make people want to hire or use your ideas.

My Floating Journey

       About the author My name is Adarino Hadley, and I am a Pohnpeian by birth. I was born on a little Island of Pohnpei called Dolehtik and was raised in Diadi, a little village in Kitti known for “Siokara,” a family of clams marinated and preserved in bottles for eating. I have four brothers and four sisters, and I was the second eldest among my siblings. I am married and blessed with three children one girl and two boys. My wife's name is Mihna Celestine Hadley; my daughter is Vyra Hadley; my two sons are Adarino Junior Hadley and Jordan AV Hadley.  I attended Elementary School at Wenik/Rohnkitti Elementary School, now called Nanbei Memorial Elementary School, and graduated in May 1994. I decided to go to Xavier High School, but my family didn't allow me to, so I attended Pohnpei Island Central High School (PICS). I graduated and received my diploma in May of 1998. Again, I wanted to go to Hilo and attend College there, but no one could help me with my appl...

Here are the two videos https://youtu.be/MBYlRmUurJ8 I learned how to make students come to school by following the CRSSP (Choice, Relevance, Strength, Specific, and Passion). If you follow the CRSSP, it will make students motivated and willing to learn. Watching the movie gives me an idea of how to make my students come to school every day and be willing to learn. If a teacher follows the CRSSP with the passion to make students succeed, then it will make learning fun and enjoyable   https://youtu.be/UCFg9bcW7Bk For this movie, it is almost the same as the first, but they have different ideas. This has to do with the 6 C's (Choice, Collaboration, Communication, Critical thinking, Creativity, and Caring). If you follow the 6 C's, it will make your classroom a wonderful and successful classroom, and students will be willing and motivated to learn. By watching this video, I think that I can apply some of his methods of teaching in my class. And his ideas are really great for a cla...

Blog #6 (Floating around near the Land)

   What are some things you can do in your classroom to foster creativity and innovation?      Some of the things that I can do in my classroom are doing Social Emotional Learning (SEL), integrating technology, and using technological tools like Google Forms. For the SEL, I know that it really helps my students to be creative in answering questions, and it makes them really focus on the lesson we are doing. For integrating technology, I can see that students are more into technology and love to use technology in doing their work. They become creative and innovative when a task is given to them to complete or find using technology. For Google Forms, I know if they learn to use it, they will create work that will be better than what I created.   What Facebook group OR YouTube channel did you join?      I haven't joined any Facebook or YouTube channels, but I love watching channels that have to do with teaching, so I can apply their method and...
