Google Site

My sharing with the teachers in the humanities teachers on the use of Google Site for self-directed and collaborative learning. 

The use of google site allow students to be self-directed in their learning as they can select, manage, and assess their own learning activities any time beyond their curriculum time. To further engage the students in their learning, interactive resources such as Zaption interactive videos and Quizlet can be embedded into the Google site.

Update 2017 - I have created two more sites for lower sec:
Sec 1 - https://tinyurl.com/y1geog 
Sec 2 - https://tinyurl.com/y2geography

Inquiry-based learning is infused through geographical investigation using the Google Site. The use of Google site helps the groups direct their geographical inquiry collaboratively as well as allowing them to review the steps needed in the geographical investigation to encourage self-directed learning. An example will be an inquiry on water quality by the Secondary 1 students from Edgefield Secondary School. Permission I a given by level which means some pages can be viewed by public but students group work can only be viewed with sign in. After they have signed in, they can only on the age assigned on their findings and reflection as well as attach a copy of their final product.
I have also used Google sites to guide the students for GI on Coastal Studies and Tourism

Sec 1 GI on Water Resources 2015 http://tinyurl.com/watergi2015
Sec 3 GI on Coastal studies @East Coast Park   tinyurl.com/gicoast
Sec 4 GI on Tourism @ Chinatown tinyurl.com/gitourism

It is also great for sharing resources among the department teachers as it is a secured platform which access permission can be controlled - only share with a certain group of people - intranet. It is a great platform as a repository of resources and the whole site can be duplicated for another year or level. Instead of webpage, you can change the page format to file cabinet. Those who had been given permission to access the site can click on subscribe to changes and a email will be sent once a file is added.
