It has been almost a week since I last wrote on my blog. It has been a busy week for me. I have been keeping up with all of my classes; although it is a bit of a struggle balancing home, work and school. I am a bit exhausted but excited about this new learning journey. I was hesitant about the digital learners class, but it has actually allowed me to discover some useful tools and activities that I can use as an educator. I want to be more comfortable with technology and how to use it to help not only myself but my future students.With that being said I feel like I need to expand a bit more on the concept of "Genius Hour".
Genius Hour is a time when students can have their passions come to life. Educators can allow for their students to work on what they want on their own learning. Genius Hour can not only be fun for students but it allows them to become more engaged in their learning. The more engaged and enjoyable it is for them; the more it will boost their confidence. I cannot wait to try this out with students. I hope it is something I can do during one of my placements. Here are a couple of links to see what can be done when it comes to Genius Hour
