Blog #3 (The current to land)

 1. Reflect on a poor learning experience.  

My poorest experience was when I was still in high school, my teacher tried to teach us how to solve graphing problems. We will solve and then graph the problems it was tough and frustrating for me. However, I found out that if I follow directions and do the work step by step, it will be very easy to do.



2. Reflect on your most significant learning experience.  

    My most significant learning experience was when I learn how to drive. My uncle watching me drive and telling me how and when to shift the gear made me feel like I was flying. This was the most exciting experience that I had. According to the reading and movie, deep learning is what makes a student successful in life and everything they do. Most student learn by trying to solve real problems either in their community or school. Because I am a kinesthetic learner, I strongly believe that learning by doing will stick with you all of your life. I am an Agriculture teacher, so I teach the students how to plant crops and how to take care of them all the way to when they are bearing fruit. I know and believe that the skills they receive from me, they will be able to use them one day if they do not complete their education or want to do gardening. I teach them how to pollinate, prune, and when to fertilize, and how many times to fertilize. I know that this type of learning is the best, and it is what we call deep learning. Like Katie Martin said, "If we fail to engage teachers in making or designing better learning for their kids, then we will fail ourselves."





3. How do you best learn through technology? Ex: reading blogs, FB posts on teaching, YouTube videos.

    The best way I learn technology is by watching people doing the work, and by someone telling me what to do, like what we used to do in class, which I share, and my instructors telling me or guiding me through the work. I also learn by watching YouTube videos, what they do, I follow, and get all the steps to do the work.

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...
