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

May...

May was another very busy month, after returning form the US events I had just two days before heading back to Australia for another week of Keynoting another series of Apple Early Years events, this time in Adelaide, Canberra and Brisbane. Canberra was a different format as this was 'Primary' focused rather than just the Early Years. I wondered if this would be the style of events to happen if they were ever hosted in New Zealand? I could see this format being useful in Auckland where the market was very similar to Canberra but hope that the style and focus on the Early years would be replicated throughout the rest of the country as there was a definite need for it. I am being contacted every week from Early Years teachers just desperate for support and guidance in not only purchasing devices but in successfully using them in their schools and daycares.

I hosted two school visits in May, one was a Principal who had visited previously with a Principal group but now returned with all of her senior teachers. The other was a group of educators from 8 different schools who came to hear about both our 1:1 journey and the makerspace, they were particularly interested in our systems and structures.

I delivered professional development to Ursula Frayne School from Western Australia through a contact made with Paul Reid (and Apple Learning Specialist) at one of the the Early Years events. This was the first time I had delivered PD via a WebX format, several of the the questions from teachers were challenging and allowed me to really considered the 'why' were were doing what we were doing and I appreciated this conversation.
