I collected in student feedback from my Level 1 and 2 class.

With each class they have had their first experience this year using google docs for work and a website for learning

It's easier for me to use!. If i was to come to class late and missed out on what we have to do, I wouldn't have to worry much because all I would have to ask him is what were on then go to the website and start working.
meh
Easy to use and find
really easy to use and is helpful
The PE site is good for knowing what to do on an assessment but learning sources on the site don't have a broad selection of information to choose from. Screen casts are very useful for recapping what happened in the lesson without having to ask the teacher, who could be busy with other students etc. Using google docs is very good because getting feedback stays on the page which is harder to forget, and it helps with going through the assessment at a step by step bases making the assessments seem less intimidating.
Pe is the only class i have that involves a website and i feel that its helped me alot in class. Pe is my favourite class because i can actually understand and do the work properly using the guidelines of the website.
it gives good information and these form things are fun to do
it okay to used for mt school work but not mostly for me
Mr Borland is a very great teacher.
Mr Borland has stepped up ever since he has met us and for his website it made it much easer then knowing what we really had to do . its worth it

Making learning rewindable using video delay

In my PE classes I am now regularly making the physical skills rewindable. I do this by using an I pad app called BaM. It stands for bust a move. This provides video streaming but in delay. The delay can be from 2 seconds too 2 minutes


Next use apple TV to mirror the Ipad onto the 70 inch TV that is installed in our Gym. The video can now be viewed by the entire gym. It creates an instant reply like situation. I would like to thank the board of trustees of Papakura High for their support in the installation of a TV



The result is students viewing and watching their movements. The teacher can prompt them and discuss with them what they are doing. It saves the teacher from trying to use words to do this. Now the learning and evaluating is visual
