A month by month reflection on my journey as an apple distinguished educator...

September...

The Apple NZ Primary event was hosted in Auckland on September 4th. There was barely a dry eye in the room after Jo's showcase, she was certainly a shining star and I look forward to supporting her with her future ADE application, she has grown so much in the last two years both personally and professionally. Bruce flew in from Korea the night before the event and having him there was brilliant, seeing his pride and having the opportunity to acknowledge his role in this journey was very important to me. A true leader allows others to lead and affords them the opportunity to grow through role modelling effective leadership.

MADE Awards entries closed and we have entered 40 stunning examples of learning with digital technologies across all 8 categories, fingers crossed our students will be recognised by Judges as finalists for this years event. We set our standards very high and each year our students lift that expectation even higher, especially this years entries using the Keynote line animation. Finalists are announced October 19th.

This month I hosted a school visit from the Principal and leading e-Learning teacher from Douglas Park School in Masterton. 

Meredith Bean, Dan Partridge and I hosted an Apple Classroom and Classwork PD session for our whole staff to answer questions and challenge ongoing practises. Both Dan and I were thankful that we could answer all questions and problem solve on the spot (we found that the connection between Zulu and ASM had created a couple of issues when teachers were trying to deliver 'handouts' to students). Our staff are always excepting of taking on new challenges and change and having support from the Apple staff is invaluable - especially at the moment when we appear to be the only school in NZ using this ecosystem school wide. Solving the problem of pushing out multitouch books to student devices will be my next challenge, so far no one has answers for us.
