This Blog is designed to scaffold the learning and information required
for students participating in St Columban's College Teacher Shaun Morris' Religion and Ethics Program.
In a nut shell, this blog will be used as a tool to connect with each other
and share information and ideas for class tasks, Assessment Tasks, group and
individual reflective purposes.
Posts will be posted to the blog that Religious and Ethic's students, their
parents and a select few within the Columban's College Community can
reply to
with required or relevant information. This format is a way that
students and our College Community can access information as
well as reflect on progress and
responsibilities in their own time or within class time at school.
Teachers or students can upload comments, requests, questions and
feedback that each
participating student can respond to in an online learning
environment
completely tailored to the the Religion and Ethics Program expectations. This
Blog will
provide an area for students, their parents, and the wider College
community to track progress and results.
As postings accumulate, so does a map of the students learning journey,
this Blog can be used in future years as a reflective tool for students
wishing to research a class task or as an example to future students
interested in what the St Columban's Religion and Ethics tasks can offer,
for ideas that worked or for
areas that can be improved for future success.
The safety of our students is paramount; this blog will not be an open
format. Students are invited as guests to contribute to the wall and
comment on
proceedings. St Columban's College Teacher Mr Morris will
control access to the blog through the invitation of Senior schooling
staff, teachers and students participating in this format.
Apart from these invitees, no other person or organisation will be able
to access the blogs material. The College's IT Department will work
closely with the Mr Morris and the RE Cohort to maintain and continue to deliver
and develop with trends and technology advances that will benefit this
ever evolving E-Learning portfolio.
Participant’s Parents/Guardians are encouraged to view and comment
on the learning journey, it is advised though that all postings be done
in a respectful and appropriate manner. Any posts that offend or are
detrimental to anyone associated to the school or
participants will be removed and that account will be deleted from the
blog permanently and information will be passed onto the necessary avenues for discipline or the authorities if necessary.
Finally, this is a forum that can be used to strengthen the knowledge
and understanding of students, incorporating ICT’S into their learning
environment is an ambition nationally for every school in this ever present global environment. We hope this format builds a
foundation that can be built upon; thank you for taking part.
Shaun Morris.
