Blog #10 (floating around a small Island)

  • Explain how teaching with digital technologies could change education. 

    For me, teaching with digital technology can change education because most students learn by seeing the actual thing with their eyes. This will be better because I know that most students learn things through observation, like my students, who learn by observing me doing the actual work, like fertilizing the plants. most of them did the work perfectly, but those who did not pay attention did not do well. Most students are really good with technology, and they enjoy looking at things people post when doing something. I know this because the way I know our culture is by observing what people can and cannot do, and also asking my uncles or aunts, but I learn most of it by watching them do the work.



  • How do you see it changing your classrooms for the better? I know that if I use digital technology in my classroom, it will make learning faster and more interesting. I know that students of today enjoy watching movies or video clips, so using digital technology will be better for the students. It will be better for them because they will be watching the actual things and how it is done, like slaughtering chicken, feeding chicken, etc.


  • What are some reasons why teachers don’t want to incorporate technology in the classroom? From my experience, those who don't want to incorporate technology in their classroom are those who do not know how to use it or don't have the means to do it. Those who do not have access are the ones who do not use technology in their classroom, but I believe that if they have access and know how to use technology, I believe that they will apply or use technology in their classroom.

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...

Blog #5 (current flowing close to land)

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...
