Session three - Hapara, the teacher's lifesaver

Guess who is my best friend again? Hapara Teacher Dashboard.
Today for our Digital Fluency Intensive course we looked at all the different folder buttons in Hapara teacher dashboard.  I really enjoyed this lesson because I use hapara a lot in my classroom to send messages, monitor and share mahi with my tamariki.  Some of the things that were extremely helpful were:

  • Making groups within Hapara where you can group certain students for example reading/ spelling groups.
  • Workspace - a place where you can upload units of work onto Hapara for students to access.
  • My most favourite of all, the sharing folder - where you can see all of your student's work (even the work that is not in their correct folders)
We were asked to screencast ourselves talking about one thing we have learned in today's lesson.  I thought I would screencast the sharing folder and what is so cool about it, tomorrow, I will share this with our staff at Kawakawa Primary.

    I like how you've explained how to find files that students haven't shared with you it makes managing students work so much easier but more importantly it's great to be able to visually show students how to organise their work in the right folder.

    Have you explored using Workspaces yet?

    1. Hello Kerry, thank you for the feedback. Haven't had the opportunity to look into Workspace, mainly because it is assembly week at school. Might do the right thing and set side some time to have a good look into it.
