Nice and useful suggestions.

# data[].attributes.body
I started using rubrics two years ago and they're really useful to assess cooperative work. The students like them, too!

# data[].attributes.body
I consider interesting as proposed but unattainable in practice where I work. It would take much more time of my two hours a week on the 9 classes entrusted to me.
I average 18-20 students per class. Furthermore, the programs to be performed and the test to be really can work wonders, but most of what I do I just can not do. We should review the whole Italian school system.

# data[].attributes.body
Tip certainly very interesting, but we need a closer approach to the reality of teachers who work daily with dozens of students who have different educational and personal needs, and above all with a different level of knowledge.

# data[].attributes.body
This video gives some interesting suggestions, and very useful.
Although I think that in order to realize it would take much time and proper training of the teaching staff as a whole.

# data[].attributes.body
The competenced based  teaching and assessment  needs a deep  change in working with students.
I'll try to introduce it gradually.

# data[].attributes.body
The topics are very complex. I think I need to deepen and make a reflection of all that is shown there. They are new techniques which we will have to adapt to be better teachers, but you need a good preparation also from our side because I find it quite challenging. However I am very exciting and I appreciate that the assessment also takes account of those soft skills that until some ano ago were not highly considered,

# data[].attributes.body
Innovative teaching with innovative tool

This is quite new for me, because in my school we still use traditional kind of teaching and evaluating... I wish my colleagues could watch this video...

The collaborative Problem Solving skills are very very important in today world. The problems are complex and nobody alone ca n resolve them. The school must teach the way of working together and together solving problem. In Italy this is at the begin. Very useful the rubrics of professor Patrick Griffin.

# data[].attributes.body
Very interesting proposal. My institution focused especially on 'social and emotional aspects of pupils

# data[].attributes.body
Very interesting but we need a closer approach to the reality of teachers who work daily with dozens of students and weekly with hundreds ...

# data[].attributes.body
I hope I haven't broken too many hearts as Professor Griffin says but perhaps I have bored a few to sobs by not dividing the class and working to the 'simpler' level.

# data[].attributes.headline
This is completely new to me and very useful. But I wonder if we can apply this form of assessment to all the students that we have( that is around 270) most of whom we meet only 2 hours a week. Thank you Mr Griffin for the valuable information

My school has been using rubrics for many years. They are different and depend on the subject and type of activity. They are carefully monitored every year and, if necessary, they are modified and furtherly developed. Yet I have never used rubrics to assess collaborative problem-solving and I would like to work out one tailored to my students.

# data[].attributes.body
The realization of a rubrica makes students more responsable and conscious of their learning.

# data[].attributes.body
The teacher has an important role in assessing problem solving. You need to have a clear image of behavior an the task of the students. Good observation during process is necessary

# data[].attributes.body
Surely assessment is complex but essential for thechers and student

# data[].attributes.body
I had never thought rubrics can help students become aware of their progresses

# data[].attributes.body
A lot of things to consider! I am a little overwhelmed right now having read the pdf!

# data[].attributes.body
The video is very interesting because it makes us understand the importance of Collaborative Problem Solving, This is a good place to start to learn in the school and in the other life contexts.

# data[].attributes.body
It's interesting to know that giving the rubrics to students make them try to achieve higher levels.

# data[].attributes.body
A lot of new things to cope with! I hope I'll do it effectively :)

# data[].attributes.body
It's really interesting and useful suggestions.
Though it'd take a lot of time for me to adapt this. Still I think once I get used to it, it'll make my assessments more individual and bring it to a higher-level.

# data[].attributes.body
Very interesting. For the first time I found my feelings and ideas set in a system. However I think this kind of assessment will really take  a lot of time and I am wondering how could I manage it

# data[].attributes.body
Very interesting, but have we enough time to assess all these skills, life skills, together with knowledge and other competences? A team work with all the other teachers of a class is mandatory

# data[].attributes.body
A lot of suggestions in the very hard field of assessment!

# data[].attributes.body
I found it very useful for me but it is very difficulto to envolve colleagues.

# data[].attributes.body
The video focuses on all the elements the assessment of CPS include. It is clear and effective. I will share the video with all my colleagues at school.

# data[].attributes.body
The video absolutely shows us all aspects of CPS. there are many items that we pay attention during assessments.They lead us to give proper and realistic feedbacks.

# data[].attributes.body
Some people have a special gift: how to explain something highly complex in a very clear manner. Thank you so much for this interview. I will go back to professor Griffin's material and try to study it with my colleagues at school.

# data[].attributes.body
Very interesting and meanigful tools to assess CPS... all is new to me and I hope to cope with it

# data[].attributes.body
Progress learning is essential in our students. Between simple and sofisticated learning there are lot of work to do to motivate our students and attend different learning speeds.
to create solving problem skills we need to aplicate authentic situations like negotiation, perceberance, etc to improve their social skills in classroom but also in life.
Very interesting interview to learn how to assessment problem solving skills.

# data[].attributes.body
Great interview and a fantastic lesson on collaborative problem-solving - dimensions and elements. The paper Professor Patrick Griffin drafted to accompany the video will be very helpful to me in the assessment of social and cognitive skills.
A text to be studied collaboratively with my colleagues at school.

For me it is amazing how the blur in my understanding clears while listening to this video! Thank you! :)

# data[].attributes.body
I really enjoyed the video and agreed with a lot professor Griffin's points amount personalized assessment of competences. I think that the aspects of it being simple and informal are a great way to accurately gauge the progress of the students, and determine whether they are on track or if they will need additional assistance from the professor.

# data[].attributes.body
Really interesting and thought-provoking.
Assessment and evaluation are no doubt among the most difficult tasks of a teacher.

# data[].attributes.body
Prof. Peter Griffin give us a lots of suggestions. In my mind I've thought a sequence of priorities in assessement.

# data[].attributes.body
wonderfully simple and wonderfully effective!

# data[].attributes.body
very interesting ideas. I already use rubrics with my students which help them focus on the task and aim.

# data[].attributes.body
This video puts everything in a new perspective. Interesting ideas.

The rubric is a great idea: how many suggestions in this video

# data[].attributes.body
I love all that men says...

# data[].attributes.body
It's very interesting and helpful video, a lot of new ideas which I will try hard to implement at my work.

# data[].attributes.body
This video was inspiring, many new ideas and sugestions I will surely use.

# data[].attributes.body
I knew the assessment would have been a difficult topic to tackle with this time!

The headteacher in our school has introduced a sort of rubric to assess the transversal skills  of students in 8th Year (13-14 year-old) to observe them during the whole school year. These observation do not correspond to our numerical marks, but they should help us have an idea of their social behaviour.

Rubrics are a sustainable help, any given framework is, but what is really really difficult for a teacher is something the Professor said:

"look where their performance breaks down, NOT what the student can do OR what he cannot do, we want that bit in between where the performance becomes inconsistent, we can intervene in that point and make it consistent".

# data[].attributes.body
I have been using rubrics .It is very useful. This video is very interesting. it shows us how collaborative problem solving is important for teachers and students.

# data[].attributes.body
This intervention changes the point of view: it’s time to evaluate the entire performance, including transversal skills, and this is crucial for many students. Those who have problems with language, or are emotionally fragile, can be evaluated judging a different kind of performance. This is a new challenge for teachers.

# data[].attributes.body
I thank Mr Griffin for his really useful talk. It enlightens our future path as teachers by providing us with useful tools to measure student's progress in social and cognitive skills . This is the type of understandable and reasonable training I was looking for in order to improve my assessing practice

# data[].attributes.body
I will use rubrics more and more in my assessing from now on because I think it is also a good way of giving feedback to the students.

# data[].attributes.body
Prof Griffin provides inspiring...Its up to us the deep understanding and implementation. Which means design assessment carefully..

# data[].attributes.body
Professor Patrick Griffin is really inspiring! Thanks!

# data[].attributes.body
I think that the rubric combining the cognitive and social dimension (5) is really very useful and help us teachers to reflect about the class and to understand the students behaviour in a serious way. At the end to realize what is assessment for collaborative problem solving.

# data[].attributes.body
I used to identify "participation" as the key evaluation criterion for my projects. Thanks to Mr Griffin's paper, I can now appreciate how articulate and "scientific" assessment in collaborative problem solving can be!

# data[].attributes.body
Once again, I have to say that most of what I've heard from the video is very similar to what I used to do in junior school where competences are more important than content based knowledge. It would be great to do it in secondary school, too.

# data[].attributes.body
Once again I am forced to admit that a new frontier in the teaching / learning process is outlined with clarity on the horizon. Personally I consider it a very difficult challenge, but certainly viable and attractive.

# data[].attributes.body
Assessing students’ collaborative problem-solving is hard work but it represents a rewarding step in the teaching-learning process since it triggers a new challenge (both for teachers and students) enhancing the learning quality

# data[].attributes.body
I need to learn more about rubric!
These strategies takes lot of time and teachers needs headmaster's support to improve this in class.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that working in class with a particular eye to competences is a very complex task for a teacher. In my opinion it allows students to learn more effectively. I also think that time spent in meta cognition and reflection is very important and that formative evaluation is basilar in order to adjust activities in class to the needs and styles of each student.
I am trying to put it into practice!
Have a great day!
I particularly thank the team who thought and organized this useful and enriching course.

I watch the video and I must say that it is interestined in me.
Rubric, portfolio, factorial map are useful instruments to think about how they've worked and to reach their best. And it is really interesing explanation. Also metamemory is interested me in. Also I read all posts of my colleages and learn lots, hope it will help me in my future work.

# data[].attributes.body
There are so many social skills to consider! I found metamemory and transactive memory very interesting terms! Also  I find it continuously amazing that the zone of proximal development (Vygotsky) is always current and representative of what we, as teachers, need to do!

Do you know curriculummapping.com?
I found lots of what Griffin siad in these online programm to write learning unit.

# data[].attributes.body
The video is great. PG is excellent and everything seems so easy from his mouth. And it is. But. We did it all this centuries other way. This educational habit changes very slowly. Teacher still should assess subject content because of final exams. This is what everybody knows: teacers, students, parents, principles, inspectors... That is something that should be done. No dobubt. And on the OTHER side are skills which are needed but not obligatory - yet. This is problem. They are like luxury. How to make them comon?!

# data[].attributes.body
Professor Griffin's description of the social and cognitive skills to be assessed seems a comprehensive guide that respects the students' profile. However, like many of my colleagues, I feel that the rubric is not an easy tool to use given the class time available and the curricula obligations.

# data[].attributes.body
The example given with the seesaw is so good :-)

Collaborative problem solving encourages students to share experiences, knowledge and contents. It is useful to promote responsability, self-assessmente  and perseverance.

# data[].attributes.body
Assessing key competences requires time but I thinK using a rubric would be a good idea. I want to try!
Professor Griffin gives important hints.

# data[].attributes.body
Professor Griffin's rubric is very accurate.
And he pinpoints the key competences which students should use in future life: initiative, responsibility, perseverance.....
However it takes a lot of time to consider all these aspects!!

# data[].attributes.body
In this video, Professor Patrick Griffin, University of Melbourne, says that it is the teacher who with his professionalism, through collaborative problem solving, able to realize the social and cognitive skills in their students. Through teachers can participate to understand the development of students 'skills: tools such as rubrics or progressions development as a way to track their students' progress in these skills over time, and to help identify where students need education, support and guidance, in order to reach the next level of competence in a particular skill.
Also interesting is the document drawn up in addition to the video of Professor Patrick Griffin. It will be an improvisation, but that captures the fundamental aspects in raising skills; well done!

# data[].attributes.body
Professor Griffin gives a thorough overview of the social and cognitive factors which influence the success of a collaborative problem solving task. To achive high performance the students have to be able to make progress in strenghtening all their skills in these fields. He also talks about how these skills can be measured: with the help of rubrics. This video was very interesting and useful for me to watch

# data[].attributes.body
Assessing key competence is a central aspect is teaching

# data[].attributes.body
I would listen to Professor Griffin every day! Such a personality! Great ideas, of course, but the problem which I see at once is - the lack of time. There are so many things to be done to get ready for the lessons, to do the paperwork, to contact parents and so on... that these rubrics seem unreal. At least to me.

# data[].attributes.body
I'd like to point out that this video has addressed a real problem - mixed ability classes. It is very true that good learners become bored and the less good ones turn off their attention...
Anyway, it's difficult to admit one is not very proficient at something and it is also difficult for the overachievers because they are envied. Well, we need to develop an old skill - feeling good about ourselves physycally and intelectually.

# data[].attributes.body
I've aIways thought that assessment of social skills is very difficult, because it can't be completely objective. By watching this video and by reading the transcription of it I found very useful the measurement structure for social skills assessment. Very useful is the Framework of cognitive skills for collaborative problem solving with the levels of cognitive and social skills. I'm sure I'll use it in my next lessons.

# data[].attributes.body
amazing and challenging! "Collaborative problem solving requires partnerships to be formed and agreements to be reached on the nature of ideas or hypotheses to be tested and the way the team will proceed. Then the collaborating students need to make observations and to seek information. "
I need some more time to rethink  about the content of this challenging lesson and most of all I need to reflect about how to implement my teaching and assessing method. I think, thanks to our eTwinning projects we have innovated a lot our learning and teaching approach, as they are,for their nature, based on CPS. But we need to implement our assessing method in a clear and organized way with the contribution and direct involvement of our students . This is the biggest challenge we have to face now!

# data[].attributes.body
Reall interesting words.
Shall we be able to introduce all these novelties at school?

Very useful and very up- to- date information given by Professor Patrick. Unfortunately the problem is the lack of time to put in practice all these ideas because of the importance given to contents in our school system.

I've been using rubrics for quite some time mainly to assess the communicative use of English. It is difficult to use rubrics for collaborative work not because of the rubrics themselves but because I have little time to observe my students while working together. I like this way of teaching but we are often hindered by many different demands: the necessity to test knowledge of content, to mark written homework and the fact that in Italy, or at least, in my school, there is very little time for teachers to collaborate in developing teaching materials and also assessment tools.

# data[].attributes.body
A very interesting video sharing useful ideas.
The collaborative teaching problem solving provides knowledge, experience and several strategies that may affect the class as a whole. However, the methods and forms of teachings depend always on the students' knowledge, experience, social background and personal qualities.
