Reflect
If you listen to the podcast version, then you can try to the Walk and Talk method of learning!
Walk and Talk
For this task & for these new environments of teaching and learning we have the opportunity to avoid the typical "sit and get" approach to learning.
For this learning I am asking you to get up, grab some headphones and walk while you listen and reflect. The podcast is 40 minutesso you can break up into two sessions or knock it out in one session.
If you are in a school you could ask permission to walk the halls during your prep or before/after school.
This idea was adapted from this post
Capture ideas by voice typing into your app of choice, but I would recomend adding to a Google Doc or Google Keep
If you need to learn about voice typing, then here is a newsletter and video guide
Template
Here is a template(if you are in the course please use the version in Google Classroom) to capture your ideas.
Feel free to capture ideas in a mode that best serves you. This is just one way to organize thoughts and perhaps a tool you can use with staff and students.
