So Many Great Ideas: Where do I start?

Each session, I have created a slide with the highlights and possible ideas that could be used in our studio programme, and each session, the slide gets longer and longer as there are so many wonderful ideas to engage the students as readers and writers.
The part of the pedagogy I am interested in developing more is collaborating to co-create design choices. 'Inside' the create the students could choose from photographs, videos, screencasts, posters, movie trailers, trioramas and Google Draw. for the students' Novel Study.

The Ruru's had a looser, open-ended create, while the Penguins had a tighter template. Both groups were given the option to make an i-movie or written response to their creation. The "creates" will be shared on their blogs with a template to be attached to explain their "create".


The students requested to use the poster format to create a new, more appealing to kids, book cover.



It was great to get a variety of creates to draw on, and I am especially looking forward to sharing the Tighter and Looser Design Infographics" with my team and students.

I would like to improve my confidence in using AI, especially Chatgpt, as I am not a fan but have yet to base my response on any factual experience. I used Chatgpt to explore the author's purpose of writing "The Twits" and "The
Secret Lake".I am going to use a "Sentence Structure" slide by colleague, Eugene, created with
the help of Chatgpt.

  1. Hi Sharon, great to see that you are still getting good resources out of the RPI days. I too like the focus on getting students to collaborate and have a choice in the create tasks we set them. I also like the idea of setting more short closed tasks as part of the routine and then having more open ended and longer create tasks through the term. AI is certainly and area of focus at the moment, so I too am looking forward to seeing how we can harness it in class for our learners. Kiri
