Learning Observed

This term our focus is on how we can be connected citizens. In order to launch this the learners participated in a ‘Connected Challenge’ (see below).  In this challenge Annia, Saniya, Angkor and Ronav worked in a team and collaborated on various connected tasks.  They first had to look at the challenge and devise a plan- which tasks would they do first?!  It was great to see the group negotiate and discuss their options with Annia demonstrating some real leadership skills.  I observed the group while they were brainstorming ‘OrmPS’ words and they really engaged with the task- Ronav contributed ‘respect, Saniya contributed the word ‘MySpace’ and Angkor contributed the word ‘share’ while Annia offered many more.  It was great to see the enthusiasm and curiosity from this group.  Some of the tasks they worked on included- the Curious challenge- coming up with questions for the learning coaches and the Connected challenge- crossing the Nile River without getting caught by the crocodiles!  There was some great strategy and collaboration in this team- Ka Pai!
