Information for Staff
1. New update for G-Suite: We have asked for the new feature, an activity dashboard to be activated when it becomes available on Google. It will be available in Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides. It’s a feature that lets users with edit access see who has viewed the file and when they viewed it, rather than just find when the last edit is.
A very useful feature for teachers who are google doc users.
2. Transforming Assessment Practice: NZQA have developed a 9 week online programme, for teachers who would like to "modify existing resources to better meet the needs of learners, and exploring diverse and valid ways of collecting evidence."

3. NCEA Opinion Piece: There have been a number of articles written in the media about the review of NCEA. The Sunday Star times had an article quoting Briar Lipson, and her views of how NCEA should be changed.
The article (NZ Initiative Publication), was released to coincide with the announcement that NCEA was under review.
There is a front summary of a number of recommendations that she puts forward, and these are worth a read. Some of them will challenge your thinking about how NCEA is currently run. See 'Spoiled By Choice'.
