Creating Class WOW Goals We have really delved into goal-setting this year in our class and I have loved how our language has a class had changed. In years past, some students naturally set goals or worked to do better, but it was never a year-long focus for all students as it has been this year. While we are still experiencing some growing pains, I think overall the repeated exposure to goal-setting and goal-achieving has added a new dimension to our class conversations. While we have worked a lot on individual goals, I wanted to develop a class-wide weekly goal to help keep us on the right track, especially this time of the year when we tend to get into a slump. We started on Friday during our goal-setting meeting to discuss whole-class what we wanted to work on to develop ourselves as leaders in our school. What we decided was that we needed to work on Rule #1 and Rule #4 the most. Once we decided on that, we discussed how we would make it measurable. Find more Goal-Setting Posts here:

Appendix F Engaging Qualities of Student Work A critical factor for improving learning lies in providing high-quality work for students- work that engages students, work that enables students to learn what they need in order to succeed in the world. The traits of engaging student work listed below evolved from Dr. Phillip Schlechty's book, Working on the Work . (Note: each of the listed qualities of engaging work below is a hot-link that will scroll down the page to a short description of the trait, along with some examples of what the trait looks like in the hands of the learner - paired with non-examples, for clarity.) Personal Response- More than one right answer Work that engages students almost always focuses on a product or performance of significance to students. What it looks like: Supported predictionsOpinionsRemembrancesConnectionsComparisonsAnalogiesSummary StatementsStrategies"I think...because..." It is not: Recall of answers, Only one answer possible, Only one answer accepted Back to top It is not: Being "singled out"
The Best Tools and Apps for Flipped Learning Classroom July 25, 2014 Following the posting of "Managing iPad Videos in Schools" somebody emailed me asking about some suggestions for tools and apps to create instructional videos to use in a flipped learning setting. In fact, over the last couple of years I have reviewed several web tools and iPad apps that can be used in flipped classroom but the ones I am featuring below are among the best out there. 1- Educlipper Educlipper is a wonderful tool for creating video tutorials and guides to share with students. As a teacher you can create an Educlipper board for your class and share the link with them. Pixiclip is another wonderful tool to create step by step instructional videos to use in your flipped classroom. 3- Explain Everything Explain Everything is a great interactive whiteboard that allows you to create screencasts and video tutorials using annotation, animation, narration, importing, and exporting almost anything to and from almost anywhere. 4- Knowmia 6- Educreations
Using Peer Instruction to Flip Your Classroom: Highlights from Eric Mazur’s Recent Visit Home » News » Using Peer Instruction to Flip Your Classroom: Highlights from Eric Mazur’s Recent Visit by CFT Director Derek Bruff On April 4th, during his talk at the School of Medicine, Harvard physics professor Eric Mazur polled an audience of Vanderbilt faculty, staff, and students, asking us how we learned what we need to know for our jobs. Very, very few of us said that we learned those skills from lectures, prompting Mazur to say, “We don’t learn this way. Mazur was on campus to deliver this year’s John E. There is great interest in higher education today in what is often called the “flipped classroom.” Mazur described traditional college teaching, especially science teaching, as follows: information is transferred from instructor to student during class, and students work to assimilate that information after class through homework and problem sets. What kinds of pre-class experiences should students have as part of the flipped classroom?
Spiral – zakręcone lekcje! – Superbelfrzy RP Kiedy natknąłem się na tę aplikację (i po krótkim rozpoznaniu) byłem trochę sceptycznie do niej nastawiony. Wydawała mi się nieintuicyjna, taka, w której nie wiadomo o co chodzi. Ale jakże się myliłem! Trzy sposoby pracy W aplikacji możemy pracować w 3 trybach – Quickfire, Discuss, oraz Team up, które opiszę poniżej. Quickfire – pytanie i odpowiedź. Pierwsza opcja, Quickfire, jest najbardziej popularnym narzędziem (według statystyk Spiralowców). Discuss – slajdy i odpowiedzi Druga opcja polega na udzielaniu odpowiedzi do tego, co uczniowie widzą na slajdzie. Team Up – pracujemy w grupach Trzecia opcja pozwala podzielić uczniów na grupy, ręcznie bądź losowo. Kilka przydatnych tricków W każdej chwili nauczyciel może zatrzymać daną aplikację poprzez opcję “pauzy” na swoim komputerze.

Appendix D: Instructional Models - Teaching Content and Thinking Skills An instructional model acts as a blueprint for teaching. However, just as blueprints do not dictate all actions of engineers, instructional models are not intended to dictate actions of teachers. Teachers must select the appropriate model in order to achieve a specified goal, just as engineers select appropriate designs or methods based on desired outcomes. Integrative Model In the Integrative Model, students develop a deep understanding of organized bodies of knowledge while developing critical thinking skills. Social Interaction Model The Social Interaction Model involves students working collaboratively to reach common goals, increasing learner involvement and providing leadership opportunities and decision-making experiences. Inductive Model In the Inductive Model, students use information that illustrates concepts to search for relationships that lead to uncovering of principles, generalizations, and rules, thus allowing students to acquire a deep understanding of those concepts.
Teaching and Learning Resources / Learning Theories Key Concepts Behaviorism is a theory of animal and human learning that only focuses on objectively observable behaviors and discounts mental activities. Behavior theorists define learning as nothing more than the acquisition of new behavior. Experiments by behaviorists identify conditioning as a universal learning process. 1.Classic conditioning occurs when a natural reflex responds to a stimulus. 2.Behavioral or operant conditioning occurs when a response to a stimulus is reinforced. Cognitivism focuses on the “brain”. · Schema - An internal knowledge structure. · Three-Stage Information Processing Model - input first enters a sensory register, then is processed in short-term memory, and then is transferred to long-term memory for storage and retrieval. o Sensory Register - receives input from senses which lasts from less than a second to four seconds and then disappears through decay or replacement. o Long-Term Memory and Storage (LTM) - stores information from STM for long term use.
Flippat föräldramöte tubequizard Step by Step Instructions In this section find step by step instructions for implementing Gallery Walk and instructions for different variants of the Gallery Walk technique–Gallery Run and Computer Run. The applicability of these instructions will depend on the scope and depth of the exercise. Generate Questions – Think of four to five questions to use around a central class concept. See Higher Order Thinking and Bloom's Taxonomy and Examples of Gallery Walk for guidance on writing appropriate questions. Student teams in a Gallery Walk typically number three to five. So, for a class of twenty write four to five questions. Source: Burke High School Computer Tour – "Computer Tour" is carried out the same way as a "Gallery Walk" except the question or image to be discussed at each station is pictured on a computer rather than a sheet of paper posted on the wall.
