Reading discussion - Formative Assessments by Wandering Geek https://padlet.com/wanderinggeekpics/5w1b94hhwxg5ozbn Made with joy en-us 2021-02-01 19:03:39 UTC 2021-02-01 20:54:29 UTC hello@padlet.com I like the idea of exit tickets that are explicit about being connected to the learning target for the day and that directly ask students to perform the target objective with a reflection. From a time management standpoint, how can this be used daily and also still have time to read through all students responses to get a comprehensive understanding of what students know? https://padlet.com/wanderinggeekpics/5w1b94hhwxg5ozbn/wish/1150931828 2021-02-01 20:49:08 UTC https://padlet.com/wanderinggeekpics/5w1b94hhwxg5ozbn/wish/1150931828 strategies for getting the kiddos to participate https://padlet.com/wanderinggeekpics/5w1b94hhwxg5ozbn/wish/1150932297 2021-02-01 20:49:15 UTC https://padlet.com/wanderinggeekpics/5w1b94hhwxg5ozbn/wish/1150932297 Something I'd like to talk about is diagnostic assessments and how to implement them. Specifically, I want to discuss this because my goal is to help students write better, but I don't want to have them do a 'diagnostic essay,' so I would like to bounce ideas on this. melissa_sarmiento https://padlet.com/wanderinggeekpics/5w1b94hhwxg5ozbn/wish/1150932449 2021-02-01 20:49:18 UTC https://padlet.com/wanderinggeekpics/5w1b94hhwxg5ozbn/wish/1150932449 How can we balance checks for understanding/formative assessments with timing? eyork13 https://padlet.com/wanderinggeekpics/5w1b94hhwxg5ozbn/wish/1150932777 Alternately, what's the most effective way to actually use the information from checks for understanding/formative assessments in upcoming classes? (Sometimes I feel too swamped to do much with them, but I want to!)]]> 2021-02-01 20:49:24 UTC https://padlet.com/wanderinggeekpics/5w1b94hhwxg5ozbn/wish/1150932777 How can we create a checking system that's sustainable? For example, the reading showed several tables that teachers used to check for understanding from their students but how would this actually play out in practice especially when you have 20+ students? And how do you set those up? saroshah https://padlet.com/wanderinggeekpics/5w1b94hhwxg5ozbn/wish/1150933574 2021-02-01 20:49:37 UTC https://padlet.com/wanderinggeekpics/5w1b94hhwxg5ozbn/wish/1150933574 Exit tickets (and maybe entrance tickets) that are reflective for learning tasks that day & can also provide realtime data (like, what did you get done today in class? what will you continue to work on? etc) claire_kozak https://padlet.com/wanderinggeekpics/5w1b94hhwxg5ozbn/wish/1150934794 2021-02-01 20:49:56 UTC https://padlet.com/wanderinggeekpics/5w1b94hhwxg5ozbn/wish/1150934794 I really like the idea of weekly summaries. It would be good to reset my planning each week with a clear understanding of what they got out of my lessons the prior week. I also think writing helps students make meaning of the content https://padlet.com/wanderinggeekpics/5w1b94hhwxg5ozbn/wish/1150935560 2021-02-01 20:50:09 UTC https://padlet.com/wanderinggeekpics/5w1b94hhwxg5ozbn/wish/1150935560 Ideas https://padlet.com/wanderinggeekpics/5w1b94hhwxg5ozbn/wish/1150935712 I thought Table 2.3 was the most helpful part of the chapter because it shows concrete ways to enact formative assessments. I would use one or two of the examples in my toolkit later on in the semester. ]]> 2021-02-01 20:50:12 UTC https://padlet.com/wanderinggeekpics/5w1b94hhwxg5ozbn/wish/1150935712 In an online environment, it has proven tough to be sure everyone participates in these understanding checks. I usually have to move on after a minute of crickets.

How can we vary the ways that questions are asked and answered?]]> 2021-02-01 20:50:21 UTC https://padlet.com/wanderinggeekpics/5w1b94hhwxg5ozbn/wish/1150936335 Exit Tickets https://padlet.com/wanderinggeekpics/5w1b94hhwxg5ozbn/wish/1150938278 fun ways to make them explicitly about the learning without seeming like another task

Think it would help to wrap up main ideas taught throughout the week and also kind of give the students time for reflection https://padlet.com/wanderinggeekpics/5w1b94hhwxg5ozbn/wish/1150940075 2021-02-01 20:51:27 UTC https://padlet.com/wanderinggeekpics/5w1b94hhwxg5ozbn/wish/1150940075
