Number 15 stood out to me because I have some teachers who give points for everything, which is nice because it helps cushion the grade if we don't do as good on a project that is weighted more heavily, but it also means there are more opportunities to get a bad grade, especially if you don't understand the content, you probably won't do through all the assignments if you don't understand

# data[].attributes.body
The yellow seemed a lot more caring, while the green seemed kind of harsh.

# data[].attributes.body
What stood out to me was number 6- collaborating with the students to create the rubric or scoring guide. i think this is really interesting because I have never seen this happen before, and I think it could really help to make sure they understand exactly what they need to do to be successful.

# data[].attributes.body
Number 5 was interesting to me because so many times we learn all this information that isn't needed. I think it is helpful to create the curriculum centered around need to know information to best help the students. Instead of getting a bunch of information thrown at them that isn't necessarily as important, they will get to learn more in depth about the crucial material.

# data[].attributes.body
Number 11 stood out to me because I believe that student participation is one of the most important steps of learning. Giving students time to speak up is beneficial because it will teach them how to comfortably express their opinions to a group of people.

# data[].attributes.body
Number 15 stood out to me the most because it shows that students don't always need to focus on the grade they recieve. Some things are just for practice and don't matter how amazing it is, especially when they are focusing on a specific skill that they need to master. This also works opposite for the kids who do need to treat it like a grade because some kids need that to be successful.

# data[].attributes.body
Number 14 stood out to me on both lists because one focuses more on letter grades and the other on feedback. It is best to communicate with your students on their strengths and where they can improve. I believe taking time to give input is necessary for the students success.

# data[].attributes.body
What stood out to me was that I've experienced a lot of the points from both the teacher-centered and student-centered teaching. I think it's good to experience both kinds of teaching because it is important to follow the curriculum and have the students be at the center of learning.

# data[].attributes.body
Something that stood out to me was number 6 about the teacher collaborating with the student to create a rubric or scoring guide. If a teacher did that I think it would help the student learn more on their individual level and has the possibility to help promote a growth mindset if it is graded within each student's capabilities.

# data[].attributes.body
What stood out to me the worst was the difference in word choice the teacher used. For example with the teacher centered she was more focused on the curriculum more so than the students. The student centered teacher is all about helping the student be the best student they can be.

# data[].attributes.body
Number 11 on the student list stood out to me because I really agree with it. It gives the students who are struggling a push towards a growth mindset rather than a fixed mindset. This will really help the students shortterm and longterm. It will also help the students grow more relationships in the classroom when they work together.

# data[].attributes.body
Number 3 on the student-centered list stood out to me. For the most part, I've been told every aspect of my classes is important or "worth it". I think allowing students to know not every little thing in the lesson is worth struggling over. If a student is struggling with something that isn't really going to affect them beyond that assignment, I think it's important to acknowledge that it's okay they don't know and that we can move on.

# data[].attributes.body
Number 15 on the teacher-centered list: "Grading every assignment and recording those grades (which makes everything a student does a matter of their permanent record)" This stood out because I feel that students should have time to grow and learn from their work without being afraid of making a mistake and/or
being punished.

# data[].attributes.body
Number 7 on both lists stood out to me because it says the teacher should let the students pick the "projects product" and the student side says pick the "products purpose". These stood out to me because the teachers should allow kids to be creative in how they show their learning more in school.

# data[].attributes.body
What stood out to me most was the different use of words between the two lists. The connotation of the words associated with the students list seemed to have a more positive take away!
Ex: 14 on green talked about focusing on letter grades, while 14 on yellow focused on growth!

# data[].attributes.body
Something that stood out to me was 11. A "struggling reader", most wouldn't group them all together but group them with others that are at different reading levels. I feel that the students would be more comfortable with 11 because they can all learn from each other but also still have a little bit of a challenge coming from their level.

# data[].attributes.body
Something that stood out to me was number 6, letting students collaborate with the teacher for the scoring guide. I don't think that I'd ever thought of doing that. It's smart, honestly, letting students as a class help show the teacher what they are and are not capable of, and the best way they can succeed.

# data[].attributes.body
Something that stood out to me was project based purpose! And letting the students decide what they what do to, how they want to present the information and what they want to cover in their project which shows what they are truly passionate about as learners!

# data[].attributes.body
Something that stood out to me when comparing the two teaching styles is that teacher-centered teaching is more focused on getting the students to think a certain way, while student-centered is getting the student to provide a product with their own way of thinking.

# data[].attributes.body
14. Think feedback.
This stood out to me because some students respond better from feedback than letter grades which I thought was interesting to think of.

# data[].attributes.body
Number 4 on student-centered learning stuck out to me because I feel it is very important for a student. Diversifying what you take as evidence I feel gives the student confidence and eager about the next project, essay, etc. Only taking specific pieces of evidence I feel makes the student feel less than because in a way they're being told their way of thinking in right or wrong.

# data[].attributes.body
One thing that stood out to me is that I find myself relating more to the teacher side where they focus more on making sure that the students understand what they are learning and do more letter grades. These examples of the teachers side reminds me of the master teacher videos.

# data[].attributes.body
I was surprised to read most of the Student-Centered examples, because I don't think I have experienced them. Especially collaboration with community members, teachers, and parents to find out what unique societal and cultural needs should be taught. This example reminded me of CRT and applying learning to students life. I think this would also help educators get to know their students better through learning about their environment.

# data[].attributes.body
Number 11 on both stood out to me because sometimes I am that "struggling reader" who gets behind on a complicated article and I don't like only having a few more minutes to understand it all and get rushed, so to be in a group with people who read at the same pace as me would be more comfortable.

# data[].attributes.body
Letting students choose the projects purpose point 7. I think this is a really cool concept kids get to decide what there project is over and they get to make up all their own ideas.

# data[].attributes.body
One thing that stood out to me was how I could relate to a lot of the things listed on the teacher centered side even in classes this year. Lots of teachers tell us how we can "succeed" in their class by just turning stuff in on time, and giving us the scoring guide to get an A.

# data[].attributes.body
I was surprised to see on the green side of the list was grade everything. That was just shocking that teachers are encouraged to try and grade everything. Personally I believe most things should not be graded as most of the time grades have a bad connotation. Like just little assignments, quick writes, or things even like this I feel should not be graded. Because then it becomes more of a have to do than a I get to do.

# data[].attributes.body
Letting students choose the project purpose stood out to me because it will get more students involved and wanting to learn more about the project. Letting them have a choice/freedom in what they learn.

# data[].attributes.body
One thing that stood out to me was the generalities of teacher-focused vs student-focused. Teacher focused is much more straightforward, and has clear guidelines. It is also the style that is most reflected in teaching policies put forth by schools up to the federal government. In all honesty, I don't think that it would be possible for most teachers to be even 50/50 with how education is currently structured.

# data[].attributes.body
11. Putting students who struggle with reading into separate groups where they can work on improving their skills.
I really like this strategy because it helps kids build up to the standard level of reading without letting them fall behind.

# data[].attributes.body
One thing that stood out to me was point 7, letting students pick either the purpose or outcome of a project. To me when I think of a teacher centered class I think that the teacher gets to make all of the decisions, but point 7 shows that the students still get to make choices. This also stood out to me because students tend to perform better if they are working on a project over something they are passionate about to by letting the student pick the purpose of a project they truly get to pick something they enjoy, and even if the student picks the outcome of a project they still get to pick an outcome of something they would enjoy creating.

# data[].attributes.body
What stood out to me was the giving students a rubric or scoring guide, this allows students to know what they need to do in their work that will allow them the best possible grade. This also kind of bothers me because every student is in a different place in learning and basing everyone's grades off the same standards makes it hard for kids who struggle to succeed and makes school more difficult because it's not based on the individual student.

# data[].attributes.body
Something that stood out to me from the chart was how some of my teachers grade everything and how some of them only grade a few specific things. This made me realize that not all my teachers are student-centered teachers.

# data[].attributes.body
From the chart, what stood out to me was how the student-centered teaching style focused entirely on guiding students to succeed in learning by teaching them in an engaging way that connects to them. This type of teaching increases the chances of students remember what they've learned through the experience and process.

# data[].attributes.body
What stood out to me was the students' project based purpose. When students and kids get to choose the purpose of their project it creates a deeper meaning, allowing the kids to be more involved with that project and dive deeper than just what the directions or rubric says to do.

# data[].attributes.body
What stood out to me was number 3. Helping students understand what's worth understanding. A lot of time you are overwhelmed with a lot of work and different topics and feel like you have to learn all of it and then sometimes only end up needing to know half of the information. So I think it's important to inform the students with information they are 100% going to need to know.

# data[].attributes.body
Something that grabbed my attention was point six, letting students help to create a fair rubric. This is an idea I have never heard before however I think that it is a way to help students understand the importance of quality work. I also believe that a student may be more driven to achieve goals they set themselves and believe they are capable of.

# data[].attributes.body
Something that stood out to me was teaching kids about the material that is worth understanding. I know that for myself, when I am given a lot of information, I become very overwhelmed. I feel that if we break down what the children really need to take away from the lesson, it will make learning much more simpler.

# data[].attributes.body
I liked that the students are in charge of their learning but the teachers are still there to provide help and guidance for them if they need it. Unlike school now where the teachers just give everyone the same thing and not cater to ones interest.

# data[].attributes.body
7. Letting students choose the project’s purpose

This stood out to me because it's completely true that a student will do better on a project if they are passionate about it. Letting a student have freedom when it comes to school work allows them to be creative and focus on something they are really interested in.

# data[].attributes.body
What stood out to me was giving the students choice over the project. I think giving the students the option to choose what they are interested in will allow them to do better quality work because they are genuinely interested in the topic.

# data[].attributes.body
What stood out to me the most was the example of carefully choosing what is graded and what is considered extra work. I think having the ability to practice and really make mistakes without having to worry about a grade is a really great way for students to learn and grow in the classroom.

# data[].attributes.body
I never really imagined that teachers go out of their way to try to understand how students think and structure assignments around it.

# data[].attributes.body
What stood out to me is letting the students choose their own projects and their own topics of learning. It shows how the teacher is giving the students the freedom to be in control of their own learning. And by letting them choose their topics, it gets the students more engaged into their work.

# data[].attributes.body
14. Think Feedback
Thinking in terms of feedback instead of letter grades is an interesting, and more helpful, concept. If students only receive a letter grade for something, they have no idea what to work on in order to do better in the future. If they don't get any feedback, the assignment was pointless. The student will do it exactly the same in the future unless they get pointed feedback on what aspects were great and how to improve the parts that weren't so good.

# data[].attributes.body

# data[].attributes.body
What stood out to me in general, was that it really emphasizes being flexible to the student, and giving them options and letting them have their best chance at success.

# data[].attributes.body
Working with the students to create the scoring guide and rubric.
This stands out to me because in a kindergarten and 1st grade class, students wouldn't really know what to have on the rubric.

# data[].attributes.body
Creating curriculum and instruction around a need to know
I like this idea because I can remember thinking many times in class why do I even have to learn this if it's unimportant.

# data[].attributes.body
Choosing what’s graded carefully, and considering other work as practice

This stood out to me because some assignments don't really reflect well on some students so it helps kinda give everyone a chance.

# data[].attributes.body
Helping students understand what's worth understanding.
This stood out to me because I think in a Kindergarten class, students can use the extra feedback and assisstance

# data[].attributes.body
What really stood out to me was how the chart really emphasized students having a big choice

# data[].attributes.body
6. Collaborating with students to create the rubric or scoring guide.

This stood out to me because it gives the students a little more sense of power which will ultimately allow them to do better work because they are the ones that chose what would be graded.

# data[].attributes.body
6. handing students a rubric or a scoring guide.

this allows students to know what the highest scoring is so they can make it the best and know what they need in it

# data[].attributes.body
The thing that really stood out to me was letting students choose the project/assignment, or at least letting them pick from a list of prompts. I personally love it when a teacher does this, it makes me more interested in the assignment and makes me more eager to learn. As such, I believe that this part of student-based learning is incredibly important.

# data[].attributes.body
Helping students understand what’s worth understanding
This stood out to me because sometimes people focus so much on something that isn't important in their learning that they aren't focusing on what really is.

# data[].attributes.body
2. Admonishing students to ‘think’
2. Modeling ‘how to think‘ for students
Teaching kids in ways that are student-centered are going to benefit them a lot more. In this example you can tell a kid to think and they can try, but if they don't know how, it is not going to help them. By teaching kids how to do things and making sure they understand, they can learn a lot better.

# data[].attributes.body
Letting the students choose the project purpose really stood out to me because if you let them choose, they are more likely to enjoy the project and will understand what the teacher is wanting better.

# data[].attributes.body
3. Helping students understand what's worth understanding

This stood out to me because a lot of times in a teacher centered learning environment, they just try to get the student to master the topic and they end up just memorizing and then forgetting everything, but if you help them understand the things that are worth it to know they are more likely to retain that information and actually learn something that is worth while to them.

# data[].attributes.body
14. Framing learning in terms of letter grades, certificates, and completion. This stuck out to me because many students just focus on achieving the grade they want and forgetting the information afterward.

# data[].attributes.body
Letting students choose the projects purpose.
This stood out to me because if a student is working on something that they feel passionate about they will enjoy working on it and will be excited to work hard

# data[].attributes.body
7.Letting students choose the project's purpose
This stood out to me because by giving students freedom in their own education I feel like it helps them have self responsibility. I think it will help kids be more involved and engaged in their learning making them care. Also helps grow a students individual interests.

# data[].attributes.body
3.Helping students master content.

I liked this one because I want the kids to have a firm understanding of the content they learn. I think if they have a firm understanding of what they learn, they can go home and tell their parents about what they learned.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Letting students choose their own media form that reflects the purpose of the reading

This stood out to me because I feel like if students are allowed to choose their own reading they can choose something they will be interested in. A lot of the books given to us are hard to understand without a lot of the context. If children are allowed to choose from multiple different readings that are still relevant to the lesson they might get the lesson better then they would if they weren't interested in the book they are reading.

# data[].attributes.body
10.  Worksheets & Essays vs. Choice Boards

Giving students the choice to choose how they learn information will help them be more willing to learn. If a teacher gives them an assignment that they don't want to do, they won't do it. Where if they have a choice, they will be more interested in what they are learning.

# data[].attributes.body
12. Starting class with a story

This stood out to me because if you start class with a story it will have the kids begin to think about how they can apply that story to their everyday lives, and depending on the story you chose to tell, they could relate it to about anything that comes to their minds.

# data[].attributes.body
9. Choosing their own media
This stood out to me because it truly does have the students best intrest at heart. By letting students choose what they want to do their assinment on gives them a bit of freedom and will encourage them to do better on their assingment. Also it is better because each student learns differently so letting them choose their medium will allow better quality of work.

# data[].attributes.body
14. Think feedback

This really stood out to me because it shows that the student centered classroom is an environment for growth and development, whereas the teacher centered classroom is "think letter grade" not giving the student any tips or pointers on how they can do better next time. Giving student the little tips of advice on how to reach their potential next time does strongly encourage the growth mindset in the classroom.

# data[].attributes.body
6. Handing students a rubric or scoring guide.

I thinking that this example is important because, the kids need to know what they can do to get a higher grade. They know the expectations and they know if they don't follow them their grade will suffer. Also, it's important to give the kids a heads up before starting the assignment 1) so they know what to do. 2) They know your expectations.

# data[].attributes.body
7.Letting students choose project purpose
this stood out to me because I feel like if students get more freedom, it  really helps them be more interested in learning and make them more eager to learn new things. It gives them freedom to learn how they learn best and with their best interest.

# data[].attributes.body
15. Choosing what's graded carefully

This stood out to me because I think a lot of teachers feel the need to grade a lot of assignments, which could be good for getting grades up, but hard when practice activities aren't perfect yet. It also makes it difficult for a student that falls behind to make up for every little assignment posted. I think especially dealing with younger grades it's hard for little kids to understand a need to turn things in on time and try to get the best score.

# data[].attributes.body
12. Starting class with a standard and target

I feel this is really important because it shows the students what your trying to make them accomplish that day. But if some students didn't get the target that the teacher placed. The teacher should work with the students to try and help them and ask any student if they need help.

# data[].attributes.body
3. Helping students master content

I think this is very important, some students may pass a class or subject but they may not have mastered it. If they master that content it will set them up better for success for the class that follows.

# data[].attributes.body
15. Choosing whats graded carefully and consider the rest as practice.

This really stood out to me because in school (and specifically in Science classes) We are always required to turn in each assignment for a grade no matter how small and insignificant the assignment is. And throughout the years of doing it I have less and less of a drive to do them because of how often I have to. So maybe if some were considered practice and maybe I didn't have to do all the work I would have kept the same drive to do them like I had from the start.

# data[].attributes.body
14.Think feedback
I feel students need a letter grade to let them know how they are doing in school and get feedback on how they could do better.

# data[].attributes.body
11. Placing struggling readers in a lit circle that gives them an authentic role that they can be successful in, allows them to hear oral fluency and reading speed model and keeps them from feeling ‘broken’

I really loved this solution because I think it can also be seen when teachers ask "raise your hand if you aren't done yet", which causes students to feel like they are being singled out for being "slow". This solution could help them just like those extra minutes could, but it would also help them emotionally and keep them from feeling isolated.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Being clear about how to do well in your class
1. Being clear about how you will promote, measure, and celebrate understanding.
This stood out to me the most because it made me think of how that is really what student think about in those situations and then on the other hand shows me what the teacher is wanting to get out of it.

# data[].attributes.body
11. Placing struggling readers in a lit circle.
I think this is very important because if someone is struggling to read and nothing is done about it then the student is more liking to shut down, but putting them with other people that struggle can help them know they are not alone and they can learn more at their own pace.

# data[].attributes.body
8. Choosing 'power standards' from your curriculum after meeting with students, parents, and members of community to determine societal and cultural needs.

I think this is important and pretty powerful because it lets the students intertwine the world they experience outside of school and the stuff they learn while at school. Doing this helps facilitate knowledge, understanding of the world, a value system, an application of the subjects they learn, and a critically thinking mindset. Basing what your students learn off of what your students need seems so simple and intuitive, but it is not that way for some teachers.

# data[].attributes.body
14. Think letter grades
14. Think feedback
The teacher is more focused on grades while the students want to be more focused on the feedback so that they can be better. The students are more focused on encouraging a growth mindset instead of a fixed.

# data[].attributes.body
What i noticed is that the student centered form of teaching promotes a growth mindset. Instead of the teacher doing a lot of the work to push information into the students heads, the teacher creates and environment that is helps build that idea. I thought is was interesting as now that we've discussed growth mindset, I can see it in a lot of different way we get taught.

# data[].attributes.body
11. Placing struggling readers in a lit circle that gives them an authentic role that they can be successful in, allows them to hear oral fluency and reading speed model and keeps them from feeling ‘broken’.
i think this is a good idea because not everyone is going to be the same speed at learning.

# data[].attributes.body
15. Choosing what's graded carefully, and considering other as practice.
I think this is a good idea not everything needs to be for a grade.

# data[].attributes.body
4. Helping students continuously practice and revise how they perform on one assessment form. I like this because it can give them an idea where they are and where they can get to.
