Week 25

I keep getting myself in a spin… I changed my literature review question so many times as I continued to read deeper into the research. I ended up with this question - What is the impact of digital learning on the New Zealand curriculum and teaching pedagogy? I wrote my literature review with a key Kaupapa Maori focus, woven into each subtheme. However for some unknown reason I deleted New Zealand from my question at the last minute and am now having serious writers regret over my final submitted question being…. What is the impact of digital learning on students learning the curriculum and teaching pedagogy?

Now that I am beginning to think about the next assignment I do not want to end up with the same feeling after submitting it so would love some help with clarity before I get too swamped down with assignment 2.
My original focus was around leading teachers to make a digital change and the research I discovered during my literature review was very focused on teachers needing professional development to teach students digital learning across the curriculum. I decided that I did not want to focus on how to lead change but on the research that I would need to support the reasons behind changing pedagogy to being more digitally focused.

After all this ramble….. I am left pondering my teacher inquiry topic/question for the next assignment. Currently I am thinking…
How can shifting pedagogy through professional development support digital learning and teaching in the New Zealand curriculum?
