presentation).  ]]> 2017-09-12 00:46:10 UTC https://padlet.com/sarah_dhah1/29lticb4gqv8/wish/186603596 mia_tippet https://padlet.com/sarah_dhah1/29lticb4gqv8/wish/186603651 Using technology to help one another learn the foundations of cognitive, language and literacy development is very useful as a resource that can be constantly referred back to when necessary. One downside is that we are not gaining the long-term memory skills by dividing the sections.]]> 2017-09-12 00:46:29 UTC https://padlet.com/sarah_dhah1/29lticb4gqv8/wish/186603651 rebecca_karathanas https://padlet.com/sarah_dhah1/29lticb4gqv8/wish/186603658 This technique allows for students to present the information they accessed from previous assignments or readings and allows for them to create a more "user-friendly" format for complex information. If prompted, students can think critically and apply the information they are trying to relay. ]]> 2017-09-12 00:46:32 UTC https://padlet.com/sarah_dhah1/29lticb4gqv8/wish/186603658 https://padlet.com/sarah_dhah1/29lticb4gqv8/wish/186603660 Pros: easy access of information, like graphs and charts
Cons: technology isn't always reliable, and malfunctions occur.  Also, students may not know how to use certain technology.

Collaboration:
Pros: students can learn to work together with new people.  Also, the responsibility of acquiring the info falls into students' hands, and must learn to work together to reach the desired goal. 
Cons: Some students may not like each other, and there may be "bad blood" with students. Also, some students may have difficulty communicating with others for a number of reasons.

Critical thinking:
Pros: similar to collaboration; students must work together, and it's their responsibility to find information, compared to teacher just presenting information.
Cons: some students may not work hard enough, or are just lazy, and may cause problems with other students because they aren't doing their part.

Peer support: 
Falls along the lines of critical thinking and collaboration pros and cons.

Presenting:
Pro: similar to collaboration and critical thinking.


Review of previous information:

Pros: great way to recall memory.
Cons: none I can think]]> 2017-09-12 00:46:33 UTC https://padlet.com/sarah_dhah1/29lticb4gqv8/wish/186603660 maya_el_darzi https://padlet.com/sarah_dhah1/29lticb4gqv8/wish/186603662 The jigsaw exercise was a creative way of making reviewing fun. It provided a way for students to support each other, and it required little to no technology (which is great for schools with low resources). Critical thinking can be implemented depending on the questions. The jigsaw itself that helps facilitate the activity is a great way to get shy students involved, and provide direction within groups so students use the time efficiently (rather than use this as an excuse for friendly talk). ]]> 2017-09-12 00:46:34 UTC https://padlet.com/sarah_dhah1/29lticb4gqv8/wish/186603662 https://padlet.com/sarah_dhah1/29lticb4gqv8/wish/186603668 Jigsaw allows students to give other students insight and information that may have been missed initially.  ]]> 2017-09-12 00:46:38 UTC https://padlet.com/sarah_dhah1/29lticb4gqv8/wish/186603668 jane_d_chang https://padlet.com/sarah_dhah1/29lticb4gqv8/wish/186603694 2017-09-12 00:46:50 UTC https://padlet.com/sarah_dhah1/29lticb4gqv8/wish/186603694 sarah_dhah1 https://padlet.com/sarah_dhah1/29lticb4gqv8/wish/186603838 2017-09-12 00:47:52 UTC https://padlet.com/sarah_dhah1/29lticb4gqv8/wish/186603838 sarah_dhah1 https://padlet.com/sarah_dhah1/29lticb4gqv8/wish/186603909 2017-09-12 00:48:26 UTC https://padlet.com/sarah_dhah1/29lticb4gqv8/wish/186603909 https://padlet.com/sarah_dhah1/29lticb4gqv8/wish/186603980 2017-09-12 00:48:58 UTC https://padlet.com/sarah_dhah1/29lticb4gqv8/wish/186603980 https://padlet.com/sarah_dhah1/29lticb4gqv8/wish/186604063 2017-09-12 00:49:28 UTC https://padlet.com/sarah_dhah1/29lticb4gqv8/wish/186604063 https://padlet.com/sarah_dhah1/29lticb4gqv8/wish/186604157 Pros:
-promotes collaboration
-allows for synchronous and asynchronous work
-a student may be excited to incorporate technology into learning

Cons: 
-can be time-consuming/difficult to access/use if not trained and just "thrown into using it"
-may be frustrating for some and discourage students unfamiliar with specific technologies]]> 2017-09-12 00:50:05 UTC https://padlet.com/sarah_dhah1/29lticb4gqv8/wish/186604157
