Our students recently heard from Patrick from ySafe. There were many learnings on what negative online behaviour looks like. The main messages were know ESafety, 'What you post, matters the most' and 'If it will upset, damage reputation or embarrass him or her, then don't post.'

At our PLC meeting today, teachers attended session 3 learning with MacBook. Learning multi touch gestures for productivity, organising desktop spaces, Accessibility features, and creativity with creating book covers in Pages using shapes and font styles.

Apple Classroom is more than a monitoring tool. Our teachers can seemingly move between Mac and iPad using classroom to monitor workflow, share resources and celebrate students' work. @AppleEDU #Classroom #WATechTalk

Today, our teachers gathered in a PLC to hone their skills on Macbooks, learning quick tips and tricks along the way. With their newfound expertise, they created a resource in the #NumberApp that our students can then personalise, be creative with and make real-world connections.

We are learning how to increase our Productivity to enhance our Creativity even further by using Split Screen with #Freeform and #Voice Memos where students can easily drag and drop audio recordings from one app to the other to personalise learning @AppleEDU #HolySpiritInnovators
