Evaluating Arinui & Appraisal

With BOT winning $1000 credit/trial with Arinui the school is to consider whether Arinui may be a better consideration for recording and evidencing teacher learning and practice (as compared to Blogger and labels being our current method).

After watching the video and exploring the Arinui website, these were my questions and considerations which I shared with the Principal -



Another person also asked about Arinui on a Primary Teachers Facebook page and here were other teachers responses -

I think my biggest reservation is the ongoing cost, ownership of the individual teacher's pages doesn't remain with the teachers but the school, and that any benefits do not outweigh our current method of evidencing meeting teacher criteria.  Maybe, what needs to change is the focus - improving teaching and learning rather than proving criteria?
