Transcript
| 00:00 | mhm Yeah , Welcome Everybody joining us on facebook youtube | |
| 00:09 | linked in twitter this session . I have been thinking | |
| 00:15 | about for quite some time because it is quite possibly | |
| 00:20 | I know I'm biased because I am , you know | |
| 00:23 | , working for canvas now but can via is my | |
| 00:27 | all time favorite tech tool in the world . I | |
| 00:30 | will say that to anyone that will ever listen . | |
| 00:33 | I'm really excited introduce you to two people here that | |
| 00:37 | are from Canada that are going to talk a little | |
| 00:39 | bit about um , how to get started with canvas | |
| 00:42 | for education . I know at least in my neck | |
| 00:45 | of the woods were kind of winding down our school | |
| 00:48 | years , but canvas , the one tool I think | |
| 00:52 | I used throughout the summer to build all kinds of | |
| 00:53 | crazy creative things . Whether I'm trying to span my | |
| 00:57 | friends with golf invites or I'm trying to , you | |
| 01:01 | know , get a group together to just hang out | |
| 01:03 | . So Canada is always there for me and canvas | |
| 01:05 | for education . If you haven't looked into it quite | |
| 01:07 | yet is just a game changing tool . I can | |
| 01:09 | tell you from experience as a former user that used | |
| 01:13 | it in school candle allowed me to do things in | |
| 01:15 | three minutes that it took others two days to create | |
| 01:19 | because it's so easy to use and they'll kind of | |
| 01:21 | go into all of that . But I'm joined by | |
| 01:22 | George lee and Jason Wilmot . They are very , | |
| 01:26 | very , very excited to get started with this session | |
| 01:30 | . We have talked a little bit before George and | |
| 01:31 | I actually share a similar trajectory and education George teaches | |
| 01:36 | media arts . So George , why don't you start | |
| 01:38 | tell everybody where you're from and and what you do | |
| 01:41 | there in san Francisco . Thank you very much Eddie | |
| 01:43 | . Um , yes , my name is George lee | |
| 01:45 | . I've been teaching at san Francisco Unified School District | |
| 01:49 | Um , at a local high public high school here | |
| 01:51 | for the last 27 years . So I've seen technology | |
| 01:55 | literally changed from one generation to another generation , a | |
| 01:59 | couple of generations I would say in that 27 years | |
| 02:02 | And I have to send oftentimes when people talk to | |
| 02:05 | me about you know what I use and what gives | |
| 02:07 | me excited , I have to say , you know | |
| 02:09 | , try to get a 27 year veteran teacher excited | |
| 02:13 | about education , it's not easy and I want to | |
| 02:15 | say Campbell got me excited about teaching again and the | |
| 02:19 | reason why it is because I think it goes to | |
| 02:21 | the essence of what I always believed from the very | |
| 02:23 | first that I started teaching what education learning and creativity | |
| 02:27 | is about . So I'm kind of excited to share | |
| 02:30 | with you guys a little kind of a very quick | |

| 06:32 | kits that you can use to ensure that there is | |
| 06:35 | a consistency across brand across your school district . We | |
| 06:38 | have some free professional development partnerships and then obviously the | |
| 06:42 | LMS integration with canvas works best with district enablement . | |
| 06:47 | Um , and then obviously if you have any strategic | |
| 06:49 | support that you need , we will provide personalized reporting | |
| 06:52 | analysis . We're happy to work with you on that | |

| 06:57 | from a district , feel free to contact us , | |
| 06:59 | drop your name in the chat window will contact you | |
| 07:02 | . But this is really kind of where we're trying | |
| 07:04 | to get entire school districts on board with camera for | |
| 07:07 | education to unlock the power for your students , educators | |
| 07:11 | and even your staff . So next once you've signed | |
| 07:15 | up your district , how do you connect can vall | |
| 07:18 | with your LMS with canvas ? So let me , | |
| 07:21 | we're going to take you through some quick steps um | |
| 07:23 | about how to connect it and then also some really | |
| 07:26 | cool features that are coming in the next couple of | |
| 07:28 | weeks . So first you want to enable the element | |
| 07:31 | integration . So you're going to create a district account | |
| 07:35 | for , can vote once again free . And then | |
| 07:38 | once you do that , you'll go to the account | |
| 07:40 | settings in Canberra , you'll click on billing in terms | |
| 07:43 | that's what you'll enable the lTI integration . Hopefully many | |
| 07:47 | of you guys are comfortable with the consumer key in | |
| 07:49 | the shared secret key . This is what you'll use | |
| 07:52 | to set up can via in canvas . And you | |
| 07:55 | can see there there's a quick little image to help | |
| 07:57 | walk you through that . Once you've done that , | |
| 08:00 | you will then launch the canvas LMS . That's a | |
| 08:03 | great play on words . Um and from the admin | |
| 08:06 | page you go to the settings , click on apps | |
| 08:09 | , find Canada for education . Once you search for | |
| 08:12 | Canada for education , that's where you then can add | |
| 08:15 | the app , you'll add the consumer key , the | |
| 08:17 | shared secret key which was copied from Canada in step | |
| 08:20 | one and we will share these guides with you . | |
| 08:23 | At that point you are ready to go so you | |
| 08:26 | can add canvas . So after you've integrated teachers can | |
| 08:30 | now join Canada for education classroom from the course sidebar | |
| 08:34 | in canvas all teachers need to do is click on | |
| 08:39 | camera for education to automatically using SSO and LT create | |
| 08:44 | an account . So once the teacher has set up | |
| 08:48 | , how do you actually use it from a teacher | |
| 08:49 | perspective and a student and connecting with canvas and canvas | |
| 08:53 | as your LMS ? Well , that's great . So | |
| 08:56 | what you can do is you can make a design | |
| 08:57 | from a blank template or you can edit a ready | |
| 09:01 | use template that we have . So you're gonna launch | |
| 09:03 | camera from your LMS and create any design you want | |
| 09:07 | and George is gonna go a little deeper on some | |
| 09:08 | of the design stuff . But once again if you | |
| 09:11 | start a design you can actually start with a blank | |
| 09:13 | template . You can edit the text , colors , | |
| 09:16 | images , videos and more . You can do anything | |
| 09:18 | you want from these templates . So um we're going | |
| 09:21 | to get you in Canada later in this presentation and | |
| 09:24 | get you guys designing and creating some beautiful art from | |
| 09:27 | George . Once you've actually made a design in Canada | |
| 09:32 | , that's where you can actually share the design . | |
| 09:34 | So when you launch camera from your LMS and actually | |
| 09:37 | create the design you want to share . If you | |
| 09:40 | look up in the top right corner of canvas to | |
| 09:42 | you can see three little dots that is where you | |
| 09:45 | can publish any design basically . You can embed the | |
| 09:49 | link anywhere you want . You can present it directly | |
| 09:52 | from Canada as I'm doing today in the presentation or | |
| 09:55 | once again you can actually see multiple options and you | |
| 09:59 | can share on the LMS . So once again , | |
| 10:01 | what is coming in the next two weeks as you | |
| 10:04 | will see a direct sharing the canvas LMS . So | |
| 10:06 | if you've integrated your canvas learning management system directly from | |
| 10:11 | Canada , you can publish it designed , you're learning | |
| 10:13 | management systems . So your students can actually work on | |
| 10:16 | that template . They can turn it back into you | |
| 10:19 | and they can actually complete the assignment that you've assigned | |
| 10:22 | to them . So Pretty cool stuff coming soon . | |
| 10:24 | So this is how it would work in terms of | |
| 10:27 | creating an assignment in canvas and adding a canvas design | |
| 10:32 | . So once you select and create assignment in canvas | |
| 10:35 | LMS that's where you would select the external tool and | |
| 10:39 | you would choose Canada . Once you are in Canada | |
| 10:43 | you can create the design that you want your students | |
| 10:45 | to work on . All you've got to do is | |
| 10:47 | click publish . Once you publish that design and you | |
| 10:50 | post it , your students now have access to log | |
| 10:54 | into canvas , complete the assignment directly from the learning | |
| 10:57 | management system . They never need to leave canvas . | |
| 11:00 | They open canvas . They see the assignment , they | |
| 11:03 | complete the assignment in Canada and that's where it can | |
| 11:06 | actually work . This will be launched in a couple | |
| 11:08 | of weeks so it's not quite ready yet . But | |
| 11:10 | we wanted to share with you guys what's coming soon | |
| 11:15 | . So once again , how would a student actually | |
| 11:17 | submit the assignment ? They log directly into your learning | |
| 11:20 | management system , canvas and from the top right menu | |
| 11:23 | , they choose the class to submit it to . | |
| 11:25 | They choose the assignment there actually completing . They select | |
| 11:28 | attach and they actually attached the canvas designed to the | |
| 11:32 | assignment . Once again , very simple . You never | |
| 11:35 | leave canvas canvas just popped up in front and at | |
| 11:39 | that point to go to the canvas canvas learning management | |
| 11:42 | system to turn in so you can see it's a | |
| 11:44 | very seamless process where once again you're using canvas has | |
| 11:47 | a learning management system but you're creating the design in | |
| 11:50 | Canada , they're completing the assignment . Whether it's an | |
| 11:53 | infographic , a poster , a worksheet , you submit | |
| 11:56 | it , it all is done and completed within canvas | |
| 11:59 | as you're learning management system . So it's pretty cool | |
| 12:02 | system that you have . Now as a teacher you | |
| 12:04 | can review your students work . That is a canvas | |
| 12:08 | design . So if you go to assignments , select | |
| 12:11 | the assignments to look at what the students have turned | |
| 12:13 | in . You select the candle link from your learning | |
| 12:16 | management system . You can add comments to it . | |
| 12:20 | You can do whatever you want at quick little . | |
| 12:22 | Hey this is great work , keep working on it | |
| 12:24 | . Or if you want them to continue to edit | |
| 12:26 | it , you can have them edit it . That | |
| 12:28 | is where you would go back to the canvas . | |
| 12:30 | LMS at it . Market grade it and return it | |
| 12:33 | back to the student canvas is just the design platform | |
| 12:37 | that the students are completing the work in . And | |
| 12:39 | canvas is the learning management system that is facilitating the | |
| 12:43 | interaction between the students and the teachers . So now | |
| 12:48 | how would we get organized in Canada for education ? | |
| 12:51 | So now let's think about how you actually get organized | |
| 12:55 | . So if you've never used canvas before , designs | |
| 12:59 | are really thinking about where all the work can be | |
| 13:01 | shared with your class folders are a place where you | |
| 13:04 | can organize work , draft work and you can really | |
| 13:07 | share with your students , you can actually add students | |
| 13:10 | to folders . So only specific students , if you're | |
| 13:12 | running a small project , if you want to open | |
| 13:14 | it up to the class as well . Um , | |
| 13:16 | groups are larger groups , typically where you're thinking about | |
| 13:20 | an entire class or a club , but they also | |
| 13:22 | can be used for small groups . All right , | |
| 13:25 | George , we're ready to start designing and editing . | |
| 13:27 | Yeah , So let's go back a little bit to | |
| 13:29 | the previous slide because my classes right there is this | |
| 13:32 | George . Alright George George George ? Yes , yes | |
| 13:40 | . I'm throwing , throwing some questions at you . | |
| 13:43 | Really . We had them come in and I want | |
| 13:45 | to , I want to pop in here . Kind | |
| 13:46 | of at the halfway point . Preston smith from our | |
| 13:48 | Youtube page says , can , can be integrated into | |
| 13:50 | canvas at a higher educational level , like a higher | |
| 13:53 | institution , um , which I believe it's kind of | |
| 13:56 | the same in Canada and canvas the same way . | |
| 13:58 | But I believe you've only talked about K 12 . | |
| 14:00 | Do you want to speak to that real quick ? | |
| 14:02 | Yeah . Let me jump in there . Absolutely . | |
| 14:04 | It's the same integration . However , camba for education | |
| 14:07 | is a specific tool for K through 12 . Um | |
| 14:11 | , we do have other options for higher education , | |
| 14:14 | but the integration will work the same . So I'm | |
| 14:16 | happy to meet with any higher education institution out there | |
| 14:20 | . Um , I believe Preston , I saw your | |
| 14:21 | name come across the window with the question . Um | |
| 14:23 | , feel free to contact me directly . But yes | |
| 14:26 | , the integration is the same . There's just some | |
| 14:28 | different offerings that we have for higher education . So | |
| 14:32 | another comment that came in on our Youtube page , | |
| 14:34 | Ryan here said I know that you said Canada for | |
| 14:36 | education is free for educators . But what about district | |
| 14:39 | licenses ? Does that work the same way ? Great | |
| 14:42 | question . Same way district licensing is free . It | |
| 14:46 | is not a freemium model . It is 100% free | |
| 14:49 | . We just want to make sure that we're setting | |
| 14:50 | up districts in the right way with single sign on | |
| 14:53 | . So that is all 100% free . Perfect . | |
| 14:55 | And I know at the end of the session will | |
| 14:57 | probably share some contact information for you guys if there | |
| 15:00 | are people that are joining us today and we have | |
| 15:02 | a ton of people joining . The chat is popping | |
| 15:05 | very hot right now . So as people kind of | |
| 15:07 | come in , we'll go ahead and throw your contact | |
| 15:09 | information here at the end just to make sure if | |
| 15:12 | people want to get a hold of you , they | |
| 15:13 | can do that . So , sorry , sorry George | |
| 15:15 | , sorry Jason , were , it's your , but | |
| 15:18 | I wanted to make sure we got to this question | |
| 15:19 | , we got to get the structure ready before I | |
| 15:22 | can , you know , kind of go into my | |
| 15:24 | classroom is kind of like got to build a building | |
| 15:26 | before you put the people in right now , we're | |
| 15:29 | now we're in my classroom , you know , this | |
| 15:31 | is my classroom and I'm a teacher and you know | |
| 15:35 | , before I kind of started using Canada , I | |
| 15:37 | mean I used to use all these other places , | |
| 15:39 | but now literally all my students now come to Canberra | |
| 15:43 | classroom , I mean this is where they come every | |
| 15:46 | single day , especially over this last year of virtual | |
| 15:49 | learning , this is , this is the meeting place | |
| 15:52 | , you know , we start off in zoom and | |
| 15:53 | then boom , you know , hey , let's go | |
| 15:54 | to Canada and all my lessons are actually designed in | |
| 15:58 | Canberra and then I distributed to them , you know | |
| 16:02 | , whichever way that we do . But Canberra is | |
| 16:06 | the centralized location . And the nice thing about this | |
| 16:09 | is that the camera classroom is a designed classroom . | |
| 16:14 | So what that means is , is that my lessons | |
| 16:17 | , my classrooms , my workflow is now designed in | |
| 16:21 | a way that serves my teaching and my students learning | |
| 16:25 | needs . Okay , next , So now with today | |
| 16:29 | we're gonna um , next slide . Yeah , so | |
| 16:34 | we got to basically start doing a kind of a | |
| 16:37 | very quick assignment . So you guys are going to | |
| 16:39 | pretend to be my students um next , so I'm | |
| 16:43 | going to put a , I'm going to put a | |
| 16:46 | link actually , Eddie is doing that for you right | |
| 16:49 | now George . Okay , so the link is there | |
| 16:52 | . So as I go to that assignment , I | |
| 16:54 | should be able to see a whole bunch of people | |
| 16:57 | kind of popping up into this classroom . So if | |
| 17:00 | you want to join us in this kind of a | |
| 17:01 | wonderful creative assignment , please come and join us and | |
| 17:08 | Eddie . Hopefully you post that over so folks can | |

| 17:15 | . Um If you don't have a camera account , | |
| 17:17 | just log in with a free account on camera dot | |
| 17:20 | com . You don't need an education or a pro | |
| 17:22 | account to do this activity and we'll hopefully see some | |
| 17:25 | folks joining up here in the top right window . | |
| 17:27 | You can see georges in this as well . Um | |
| 17:30 | Jason I shared the link . Um Unfortunately Stream Yard | |
| 17:35 | , the program that we're using to stream is a | |
| 17:37 | little funky every once in a while with these links | |
| 17:39 | . So I'm gonna create a bit lee really quick | |
| 17:42 | . It has to be a certain number of characters | |
| 17:43 | or it doesn't get posted over to youtube correctly or | |
| 17:45 | twitter correctly . Um so I'm gonna let this is | |
| 17:48 | what do we call this in media arts George . | |
| 17:50 | We would like you to fill a little time here | |
| 17:53 | . Absolutely . Some things get created in the back | |
| 17:56 | end , but just give me two seconds like this | |
| 17:59 | is what we do in teaching , right ? Always | |
| 18:02 | this is nothing new for me . It's been a | |
| 18:05 | year of this , right ? All right . So | |
| 18:07 | basically let me explain this assignment a lot of it | |
| 18:10 | . So one of the wonderful things about , you | |
| 18:12 | know , Canberra is distinctive , simultaneous collaboration . And | |
| 18:16 | what does that really mean ? One of the things | |
| 18:19 | that we used to use , you know , and | |
| 18:21 | when we wanted to do collaborative work in the classroom | |
| 18:24 | is to use google doc . I mean , that's | |
| 18:26 | just what we did , right ? I mean we | |
| 18:27 | would use google and then we would , everybody happened | |
| 18:30 | and everybody will write something and this is how we're | |
| 18:33 | , this is the place where the mines starting to | |
| 18:36 | meet . But what that was was it was based | |
| 18:40 | on text , it was based on words . So | |
| 18:43 | what is happening now with Canberra is that now we | |
| 18:47 | can incorporate a visual language visual symbology . So a | |
| 18:51 | lot of the times the storytelling then , instead of | |
| 18:54 | just using words , were now having the kind of | |
| 18:57 | the possibility of using visual representations . Now , a | |
| 19:03 | lot of my students are newcomers or you know , | |
| 19:06 | they have different kind of learning um stages . So | |
| 19:11 | one of the things that I found really , really | |
| 19:13 | useful is to be able to kind of incorporate the | |
| 19:16 | visual language into , you know , into their , | |
| 19:19 | into their expression , into their learning . So , | |
| 19:22 | what this assignment was is a very simple assignment , | |
| 19:25 | Kandinsky is amazing and it's a very famous painter and | |
| 19:29 | what he does is he uses very simple elements of | |
| 19:32 | art and the principle of design . So I'm gonna | |
| 19:36 | give you the instruction about how to use this . | |
| 19:38 | So when you happen you can just kind of go | |
| 19:40 | right to work . So Kandinsky uses like beautiful colors | |
| 19:45 | , lines , shapes , forms . So if you | |
| 19:46 | think about what the elements of arts are , it's | |
| 19:49 | kind of actually right here in so if I put | |
| 19:53 | in line right , there's all these lines and I | |
| 19:57 | put graphics , there's all these things . So Canada | |
| 20:00 | has literally millions and millions of visual images that you | |
| 20:05 | can drop on and then you can then kind of | |
| 20:09 | go to one of the studios and you can basically | |
| 20:12 | click and then now you have one element that is | |
| 20:15 | under and the next student that can add to it | |
| 20:18 | and add to it and add to it . So | |
| 20:20 | it becomes a collaborative creative process for the students . | |
| 20:24 | Now , when we did this assignment , we were | |
| 20:27 | basically virtual learning . And what I did is I | |
| 20:30 | created basically from a blank template . I wanted them | |
| 20:33 | to kind of feel kind of this almost like as | |
| 20:38 | if it was , they were in a studio , | |
| 20:40 | they were in the classroom . So that's why they're | |
| 20:42 | assistant table one our studio . So now we have | |
| 20:46 | people to come in and join and then , so | |
| 20:48 | this and we , I created basically six different studio | |
| 20:52 | spaces for the students to join . And when we | |
| 20:55 | did this , we had up to 70 students working | |
| 20:59 | at the same time . And what you're seeing just | |
| 21:02 | kind of as we're beginning here is very , is | |
| 21:04 | very , very kind of similar to what Jason and | |
| 21:08 | Okay , and Ryan is now working so wonderful . | |
| 21:12 | So basically go to , if you're , as you're | |
| 21:15 | coming in into this workspace , choose one table . | |
| 21:19 | Right ? And if you go to the notes section | |
| 21:22 | , if you go to the notes section , you're | |
| 21:24 | gonna be able to see basically the name . So | |
| 21:27 | I put , you know , to personalize it further | |
| 21:29 | to kind of replicate what the real classroom looks like | |
| 21:32 | . Put your 123456 So basically , you can have | |
| 21:35 | about maybe six students per each one of the studios | |
| 21:39 | . So when you are now , let me see | |
| 21:42 | more people coming in . Okay , looks like we | |
| 21:45 | got Ryan in . I'll add Ryan to our table | |
| 21:48 | . Okay , well , maybe the two of you | |
| 21:50 | can work um , you know , the first table | |
| 21:53 | . So just continue to kind of basically add your | |
| 21:56 | images to this . Now , I can imagine doing | |
| 21:59 | this kind of doing more like kind of almost like | |
| 22:01 | I said summary for a , you know , for | |
| 22:05 | a reading um for like , you know for reading | |
| 22:09 | assignment , they can do this together for Biology . | |
| 22:12 | So whatever assignment or content that you have that you | |
| 22:16 | feel you want to basically have basically a meeting of | |
| 22:19 | the mind space . So this is a very good | |
| 22:23 | way to kind of do that . The other thing | |
| 22:25 | that makes it really , really amazing to me is | |
| 22:28 | when you have about 30 students all working at the | |
| 22:30 | same time , there's a function here that allows you | |
| 22:34 | to basically click on the lower right hand side . | |
| 22:37 | You can basically kind of click on that and you | |
| 22:40 | see all of the templates displayed on one , you | |
| 22:44 | know , in one window . And what is that | |
| 22:47 | important ? The reason why that is important is because | |
| 22:51 | there you go . Thank you Jason . The reason | |
| 22:53 | why the reason why that is important is because a | |
| 22:56 | lot of the times as teachers when we're teaching , | |
| 22:58 | we're wondering , you know , why , why am | |
| 23:01 | I students thinking , you know , what are they | |
| 23:04 | really thinking about when they're doing the assignment ? When | |
| 23:07 | I click on that on that on the little tiles | |
| 23:11 | and I get to see all of the basically all | |
| 23:13 | of the working spaces literally is an animation of my | |
| 23:17 | students thinking process in real time . So when I | |
| 23:21 | see something that is kind of , that requires my | |
| 23:24 | , um , that requires my reply or my comments | |
| 23:29 | . I go to that page and then I use | |
| 23:31 | the site where there's an add comments so I can | |
| 23:35 | basically give comments literally in real time . So I | |
| 23:39 | get to see my students thinking process in real time | |
| 23:43 | and I can give comments in real time . Now | |
| 23:47 | We're Georgia looks like a few folks entered . Our | |
| 23:51 | president looks like the bit lease maybe got confused . | |
| 23:54 | Like there were , there were , there were two | |
| 23:56 | lengths and there was a private chat . So the | |
| 23:59 | first one got sent out early and I think like | |
| 24:01 | 22 of the people that were joining us today , | |
| 24:04 | we're not one . Um , but we're making corrections | |
| 24:07 | . So if you're still with us and you weren't | |
| 24:08 | super frustrated with that whole process , there is a | |
| 24:11 | new bit li I will post it three or four | |
| 24:14 | more times , click that bad boy . But you | |
| 24:16 | can see now George is probably like , oh , | |
| 24:19 | someone decided to show up for class today . So | |
| 24:21 | here we go . Now . They're joining though . | |
| 24:23 | We got him joining and I'll click back out of | |
| 24:26 | the grid views to you . And George had a | |
| 24:29 | table and start editing away . You can just see | |
| 24:31 | what we're doing . Hey , there we go brad | |
| 24:33 | comment . We made it All right . We got | |
| 24:34 | people coming in a process . So I encourage you | |
| 24:39 | to kind of , you know , you can use | |
| 24:41 | this , you know , right now on this table | |
| 24:43 | one , you know , you can use just the | |
| 24:45 | basic elements . So you can use the basic elements | |
| 24:48 | , type in whatever signs , you know , whatever | |
| 24:51 | triangle shapes , you know , whatever image that comes | |
| 24:54 | to your mind . And when you're working on this | |
| 24:57 | thing , you know , try to see what the | |
| 24:58 | overall image is already on the , on the page | |
| 25:01 | of related , connected to one other image that you | |
| 25:04 | feel is connected to your sense of creativity , your | |
| 25:08 | narrative . You know , we did this for a | |
| 25:12 | movie analysis where the students actually created . Uh basically | |
| 25:19 | a scene like imagine 30 students creating a reinterpretation analysis | |
| 25:25 | of a scene in the movie . And we watched | |
| 25:28 | the movie Minnery for the asian american um , pacific | |
| 25:32 | islander heritage month last month . So we did that | |
| 25:35 | . So it was an amazing thing . So you | |
| 25:37 | can see how they're different , you know , different | |
| 25:40 | elements are just coming together and then there we go | |
| 25:44 | . So we now have , you know , table | |
| 25:45 | four is now beginning to , we have table six | |
| 25:49 | , you know , I mean , we can , | |
| 25:50 | you can just basically choose whichever want . And if | |
| 25:53 | you find one that kind of picks your interest , | |
| 25:55 | there you go , Thank you and me as a | |
| 25:57 | teacher , I'm able to see the tiles , literally | |
| 26:00 | , this is now see my students creativity and they're | |
| 26:05 | thinking process . So no more guessing around what they're | |
| 26:08 | thinking about right now . You can see somebody's thinking | |
| 26:11 | about how many days left in school , I think | |
| 26:13 | George , you know ? So there we go . | |
| 26:18 | That's a very interesting background to use basically a story | |
| 26:21 | wars there , I mean , you know , so | |
| 26:23 | basically it gives you a sense of the power of | |
| 26:26 | this tool , right ? It goes beyond what is | |
| 26:29 | just in the worksheet , but it gives you literally | |
| 26:32 | the thinking and the learning process that our students is | |
| 26:34 | going , you know , That is our students is | |
| 26:38 | going through and that's what makes a 27 year old | |
| 26:41 | veteran teacher excited . It's kind of almost like another | |
| 26:44 | view into by students learning , Okay , that's great | |
| 26:49 | George . So we can work on this . Um | |
| 26:51 | , there's some slides at the after this where we | |
| 26:55 | can spend a little bit more time on this . | |
| 26:56 | Why should we do that ? Absolutely , yeah . | |
| 27:00 | Just just shuffled through the different slides and just enjoy | |
| 27:03 | the kind of , the images that's being created and | |
| 27:06 | I'm giving you very little direction , Right ? I | |
| 27:09 | mean , but then if you look at it , | |
| 27:10 | things are happening , and as you're kind of working | |
| 27:14 | , you see the other people who are working on | |
| 27:16 | the same page by that , you know , by | |
| 27:18 | how the , you know , the names are appearing | |
| 27:21 | on there . You can give comments , you know | |
| 27:23 | , to each other , you can go to other | |
| 27:26 | studios and give them comments . So it becomes a | |
| 27:29 | very interactive and very engaging type of an activity . | |
| 27:33 | Okay , five days still summer looks like somebody out | |
| 27:37 | of the table here . So that's a new feature | |
| 27:40 | that somebody found , which is awesome . I'm glad | |
| 27:42 | you found the table and the graphical interface . So | |
| 27:45 | that's great . And as you guys are working on | |
| 27:48 | this thing , I'm just gonna kind of , you | |
| 27:49 | know , tell you why some of the other , | |
| 27:52 | you know , templates that we have to offer here | |
| 27:54 | in Canberra . Um we have a lot of work | |
| 27:57 | sheets , you know , and this worksheets are basically | |
| 28:00 | really , you know when we designed this worksheets , | |
| 28:03 | we don't just create a worksheet that is just out | |
| 28:05 | of the blue , we actually use the content standards | |
| 28:08 | and we're always improving on , you know , the | |
| 28:11 | quality and the specific specific subjects based on the candidate | |
| 28:16 | , based on the content standards and the content standards | |
| 28:19 | , as you know , is basically , you know | |
| 28:21 | , organized by grade level and by um learning goals | |
| 28:25 | . And then another thing that is really , really | |
| 28:28 | interesting is the posters . Now when I think about | |
| 28:30 | posters , I don't just think of it . So | |
| 28:32 | yeah , let's just make something pretty when I use | |
| 28:35 | posters as a template . I usually think , okay | |
| 28:39 | , what is the thinking process of the learning pattern | |
| 28:42 | that I want and usually is much more organic . | |
| 28:45 | So if I have content of knowledge that is required | |
| 28:48 | , a more organic understanding organic expression of their understanding | |
| 28:52 | . I tend to use posters because it's a flat | |
| 28:55 | space , it allows me to move around you know | |
| 28:58 | you know from side to side up and down . | |
| 29:00 | But if I have a very logical sequence of kind | |
| 29:03 | of instructions of subject matter like say chronological , historical | |
| 29:06 | chronological events or say mathematical calculations or scientific experiment that | |
| 29:12 | requires very logical sequencing . I tend to use infographics | |
| 29:17 | you know and every single assignment that I do , | |
| 29:20 | every single assignment that I do because I teach in | |
| 29:22 | a cohort or what is called a pathway . So | |
| 29:26 | all my lessons are integrated . There's not one lesson | |
| 29:28 | that is not integrated . I send it to all | |
| 29:30 | my , I sent to my english teacher , I | |
| 29:32 | sent it to my biology teacher of physics teachers , | |
| 29:35 | chemistry or math teachers , social studies teachers and then | |
| 29:39 | they literally use that lesson template that I created and | |
| 29:43 | we actually do our collaborative grading together . So our | |
| 29:47 | students now are not truncated in their learning . So | |
| 29:51 | they see this learning as literally everything everything in school | |
| 29:55 | is relevant in my econ class um in my economics | |
| 30:00 | for my seniors we created an entire business business plan | |
| 30:05 | and this is in collaboration with my english teachers who | |
| 30:07 | taught them how to write correct sentences , you know | |
| 30:10 | , grammatical , you know , fix on their grammars | |
| 30:14 | , you know , and I have the income teachers | |
| 30:16 | are teaching them about the capitalist system , about the | |
| 30:18 | business , you know , all the things that pertain | |
| 30:20 | in economics and here I am , I'm teaching them | |
| 30:22 | about how to make a online um basically digital storefront | |
| 30:27 | . So again , it is an amazing tool for | |
| 30:30 | collaboration , is an amazing tool for creativity . Is | |
| 30:34 | an amazing tool for viewing what your students are thinking | |
| 30:38 | in real time . Yeah , I love George . | |
| 30:42 | That's just uh , that really hits the nail , | |
| 30:44 | right ? That's just that is exactly what a lot | |
| 30:46 | of teachers out there are are looking for . And | |
| 30:49 | um just fantastic . We had some comments come in | |
| 30:52 | there and that kind of reset . I want to | |
| 30:54 | I want to answer some of these because I do | |
| 30:55 | think they're important . Ryan popped it again and said | |
| 30:57 | when using the photos , videos and music , are | |
| 30:59 | these all creative comments approved ? Yeah , So , | |
| 31:03 | great question Ryan . So , we actually have multiple | |
| 31:05 | layers on camera for education around both the photos videos | |
| 31:10 | elements that we actually do use machine learning . So | |
| 31:13 | we have safe search where students can't even search for | |
| 31:16 | inappropriate words . Were consistently trying to stay on top | |
| 31:19 | of that . But students are pretty creative . We | |
| 31:21 | have machine learning over our image library , which are | |
| 31:24 | safer schools . So we're actually filtering down the camp | |
| 31:26 | a pro image library for safer schools . And then | |
| 31:29 | we also have manual audits as well . So , | |
| 31:32 | um , we are doing everything we can to make | |
| 31:34 | this product safer schools based on the photos , the | |
| 31:37 | images , the videos . Um , and we'll continue | |
| 31:39 | to improve our service . Yeah , we are applying | |
| 31:42 | as well . Yeah . One of our , one | |
| 31:44 | of our huge uh , fans of canvas out there | |
| 31:49 | , chris Giles said , uh , you know , | |
| 31:50 | this is pretty risky life , but he loves it | |
| 31:53 | . Hey , we love taking risks , chris so | |
| 31:56 | we're going to our good friend brad Minister says , | |
| 31:59 | Dude , I can't stop designing . This is so | |
| 32:01 | like google docs , but for designs , love love | |
| 32:04 | , love , Love it . So we'll let you | |
| 32:06 | get back to the , to the action here George | |
| 32:08 | . Um , but just you know what they're showing | |
| 32:11 | , you know , what Ryan brought up is that | |
| 32:13 | very , is what teachers go through all the time | |
| 32:15 | , which is classroom management , right ? And , | |
| 32:18 | and you know , and because it's so interactive is | |
| 32:21 | so absolutely interactive that you can actually see what the | |
| 32:24 | students are doing in real time . So a lot | |
| 32:26 | of the times I have not had any problem with | |
| 32:30 | with content at all in this entire year of teaching | |
| 32:33 | , you know , so I think it's because of | |
| 32:35 | the interactivity of it and then real time , I | |
| 32:38 | think that kind of really makes classroom management much , | |
| 32:41 | much easier , you know , and I can , | |
| 32:43 | I mean , I'm so looking forward to using this | |
| 32:45 | in the real classroom , you know , because when | |
| 32:48 | I go back to the classroom in august , I'm | |
| 32:50 | going to be able to project this onto the screen | |
| 32:52 | , right ? And the students are going to have | |
| 32:54 | their computers and their laptops , which , you know | |
| 32:56 | , all of them are now basically expert using , | |
| 32:59 | you know , so it's gonna be an amazing experience | |
| 33:02 | . I think this next school year is going to | |
| 33:04 | be just a year of amazing innovation , but innovation | |
| 33:08 | that is humanistic , that allows us to be in | |
| 33:12 | this physical space at the same time really have this | |
| 33:15 | quantum leap in being able to communicate in ways that | |
| 33:19 | we never thought possible , you know ? So I'm | |
| 33:22 | super excited about this coming year because being in the | |
| 33:25 | classroom and using this technology is going to elevate literally | |
| 33:29 | the learning with that personalized in the same space , | |
| 33:33 | kind of interactions . Okay , that's great George . | |
| 33:37 | And I'm just kind of fall in a couple of | |
| 33:38 | questions here . I'm going to kind of go top | |
| 33:40 | to bottom here . So chris asked , can that | |
| 33:42 | be submitted in canvas or used in canvas collaborations or | |
| 33:45 | group assignments ? Um chris we touched at the beginning | |
| 33:48 | . So assignment will be ready in the next couple | |
| 33:50 | of weeks where you can actually create a canvas assignment | |
| 33:53 | directly from canvas . Students will log into canvas , | |
| 33:56 | they click the cancel button , they'll be taken to | |
| 33:58 | canvas to where they can complete the assignment and submit | |
| 34:01 | it back directly through canvas . So that integration is | |
| 34:03 | coming . Um let's just scan a couple more . | |
| 34:06 | How accessible is it ? All text screen reader compatible | |
| 34:09 | ? Um We do have all text on the road | |
| 34:11 | map . Um I I'd have to double check when | |
| 34:13 | the road map is coming kim but we are working | |
| 34:15 | very quick and fast to make this an accessible tool | |
| 34:18 | . So um things like all tech screen reader compatibility | |
| 34:22 | , those are all in our road map to make | |
| 34:23 | sure that we are making this tool accessible for everybody | |
| 34:27 | . I think those are the two questions that I | |
| 34:30 | just got to stand in the comments . Yeah , | |
| 34:32 | perfect . And I think that chris asked the question | |
| 34:34 | , you know about , you know , I think | |
| 34:36 | we address that because the teachers is were actively engaged | |
| 34:41 | in the , you know , the students learning . | |
| 34:43 | So I think that really kind of really help manage | |
| 34:46 | the classroom and under students behaviors online . So Okay | |
| 34:51 | . All right . So , um , should we | |
| 34:53 | continue to kind of work on this a little ? | |
