In the first video, the students focused on following the rules, listening, and following directions.  They were unable to discuss how to involve themselves in being good learners.  In the second video, the kids sounded confident in stating how to describe themselves as good learners.  They were able to state what skills and capabilities it takes to take ownership in their own learning.

The first video was all about compliance.  The kids believed that a good learner followed directions, got good grades, listened, didn't mess around, etc.  It was all about following the rules, but nothing that truly talked about them as learners.  The second video is about the learning process.  They were able to identify what skills it would take to be a good learner, and all of the skills seemed to have them taking ownership for their own learning.  They were focused more on what the students can do rather than simply following rules.

For the first video- the learning seemed to be more teacher focused + in the box thinking... a good learner does XYZ.. with no room for a different formula. The second video was way more about the kids- 'we learned' (not my teacher taught... ). The kids clearly felt ownership, they were taught that failure is okay, and they felt like they could be creative and do things out of the box.

The first video seemed to focus more on what these students have been taught about being a good 'student' rather than a good learner.  Behavior and expectations were the centerpiece in their sharing. In the second video, their sharing seemed to focus on experiences; they drew on more 'real life' examples and in how to succeed through difficulty and perseverance.  Obviously, the second video stood out to me as it was less rote.  Seems the ideas in the second video will be more apt to become understood and intrinsic:)

The students in the first video all were describing the appearance of a learner, I noticed most of them said, "A good learner..." and used descriptors like: listens to the teacher, pays attention, follows directions. This is different from the students in the second video who were clearly involved in their own learning because most of them described a learner by saying, "When I..." and used descriptors like: don't give up, say I don't know it yet, change my mindset. I think the very small fact that these students used "I" to describe a learner shows they have involvement in their learning process.

It was obvious in the first video that the students were very uncomfortable with their answers and unsure of how to answer the question of "What makes a good learner?" In the second video, the students appeared confident about their answers using strong vocabulary about the learner dispositions. I really loved the saying "Keep going until you're proud!" You could tell they were confident that they were going to learn all they needed to know. They just didn't know it all YET! Very encouraging to watch as we head into trying to incorporate this same mindset in our classrooms!

The first video was focused  on compliance and behavior.  Students only talked about following rules, being quiet, and paying attention.  The  second video was very positive and focused on always doing your best,  never giving up and learning from your mistakes. The students in the each video obviously felt different about how to be a "good learner." After watching the videos, I would want to be at a school where students are excited about learning and understand that it is okay to make mistakes and learn from them.

In the first video they seemed confused how to answer what makes a good learner and truly thought learning was really based off of their behaviors and the grades that they get. In the second video you could tell they had been intentionally taught the common vocab, and knew what it meant to be a good learner, learning was based on failures and perseverance. You didn't hear them say the teacher tells me or my grades. They were taking ownership in how to learn!

The first video was more about listening to teacher and looking like a students. Very surface level answers. The second video surprised me! They understood what it takes to be a learner. They shared all the pieces to learning. Loved when the girl said- "I can't just look like a learner I have to use my brain!" They seemed to focus on a process,  that learning happens from failing and being positive about it.

In the first video almost all of the students said that listening, paying attention, following directions, or trying hard were what made a learner. The kids seemed unsure of their answers.  In the second video students were more upbeat and were talking about that failure comes before learning. I loved how they were using terms such as perseverance, self-discipline, problem solving, growth mindset, and curiosity.  They all had the mindset of "I don't know yet, but I will."

In the first video the students described what they should look like in the classroom behavior wise; listening, following the rules, being quiet, getting grades, etc.  They seemed unsure how to answer the question and almost all said listens.  In the second video the kids gave the process of learning: failure first then success, never giving up, reflecting on your learning.  These students had an answer right away and knew what they wanted to say, it was almost like they just sat through a presentation in the gym about what learning looks like. ;)

So much of the first video was centered around compliance and behaviors. The students were focused on sitting quietly and listening. During the second video it was so nice to hear students talking about success from failure and it's okay to be frustrated. For so many of our bright students school is easy and it should be. We are not meeting them at their "zone of proximal" development". We really need to excite all learners.

How did the answers differ?                 I enjoyed the second video much better than the first.  You could see and hear the difference in the two groups of students.  The first group we kind of dull and they all said the same thing...a good listener sits quietly and listens to the teacher.  The second group had so enthusiasm about learning.  There is so much more to being a good learning than sitting quietly.  The students in the second video had a much larger vocabulary.  Their excitement was contagious!

The students in the first video focused on behavior and compliance. In the second video the students focused on the process of learning. They spoke of perseverance, self-discipline, growth mindset, making mistakes. All key components of begin a good learner.

# data[].attributes.body
The students in the first video were focused on behavior and what they think a good student should look like. The students in the second video were talking about the process of learning, making mistakes, trying new approaches, etc.  Seems like they just got done with an assembly focusing on that topic so they had the idea fresh in their minds.

In the first video, the students focused on paying attention, listening to the teacher, and following directions. In the second video, students talked about making mistakes, but not giving up and to keep working at it. Being curious, being a problem solver, using strategies to help them figure out the problem. "Keep going until you're proud!"

In the first video, the student's answers were all about compliance. Listening, following directions, paying attention were answers I kept hearing.  In the second video, the student's answers were focused on learner dispositions. Growth mindset, making mistakes, perseverance, and being curious. In this video, students spoke about learning as a process and they owned their learning. They were able to realize that mistakes are okay and able to self reflect.

It's easy to see how kids can get stuck in the old school way of what makes a good learner.  It's things they hear from us everyday - and, from hearing these kids describe "good learners", helped me learn that I need to change the way children view learning.  They were describing behaviors, not learning.  It reminded me to continue to push my own teaching to be better for ALL learners, not just the ones that appear to be behaving the way we want/ expect.

The answers in the first video seemed more focused on "old school" learning like behaviors and appearance.
The second video seemed more focused on "new school" learning where kids were discussing the process of learning and their role in in that process.

In the first video, the students did not seem to know how to answer the question. Their answers were typically based on what/how a good learner looks like or acts- listens, follows directions, pays attention, positive, being quiet, not messing around, and being good. The second video, students were confident in discussing the learning process. Instead of answering how a student should look/act, their answers were based around how learning develops. They understood that mistakes are okay and are part of the process. Growth mindset, perseverance, learning from mistakes, not giving up and reflecting on learning were a few of the answers  given.

I noticed that the students in the first video were confused about the question.  They struggled explaining what good learning is.  Students thought that being a good learner was sitting, paying attention and listening to the teacher.  The students in the second video were able to verbalize clearly what they knew about how learning takes place.  They had individualized their learning and verbally expressed what they knew.  Students said that learners "keep going until you are proud" and it takes effort, time and curiosity.

In the first video it was almost like students didn't really know what to say and all their answers were the same... sitting still, not talking, ask the teacher for help...
In the second video it was obvious that the students were excited about their learning and they took ownership.  All their answers were different in some way and took on their own meaning.  They seemed proud of their work but in the first video it seemed school was just something they had to do.

If the first video the students were answering about what it means to be a compliant student- I can sit, no talk, raise my hand, learn stuff etc. However once they went through the journey of visible learning their answers changed to what it means to truly learn- Perseverance, reflection, self-discipline, problem solving, growth mindset etc. These changes show that students truly understand learning is a cycle or process that never ends.

-Macayla Witt

In the first video, the students primarily referenced behaviors; following directions, listening, not messing around, paying attention, etc.

In the second video, the students are describing Learner Dispositions.  They are using common vocabulary to describe perseverance, self-discipline, growth mindset, “failure comes first, success later”. They know that learning is more than just looking like a good learner.
