Teacher PLD

• Access the PLD webinar [2] for term 1 field trips which covers 'getting started with LEARNZ'.

Student self-assessments

• Your students can complete the online pre-test [3] and post-test [4] student self-assessment forms for this field trip. Once completed you can email barrie.matthews@core-ed.org [5] to have your class submissions extracted and emailed to you. It's OK if just some of your students have filled them in or if they have submitted either self-assessment rather than both.

Web conference resources

• Web conference activity: Students can work on this activity while they listen to live or recorded web conferences - PDF [6] (118k) | Google Doc [7]. Notes from these pages could be shared to help put together the class web conference summary
• Web Conference summary: The class web conference summary can be done in a format of your own choosing, but feel free to use the web conference summary sheet - PDF [8] (78k) | Google Doc [9]. We'd love to share your ideas on the field trip website and help your students feel valued for their efforts. Please send your class summary to andrew.penny@core-ed.org [10].
