         <description><![CDATA[<div>In the virtual classrooms, setting breakout rooms do help differentiation. Teacher can manually decide the grouping (homogeneous/heterogeneous). For some shy or low social confidence students, opening up 1:1 breakout rooms can encourage and provide them a safe learning/sharing environment.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Student Centered Approaches/Techniques for Reading:&nbsp;</div><div><br>&nbsp;</div><ol><li>Questioning – Good readers ask purposeful questions before, during, and after reading to determine meaning or further understanding.&nbsp;</li><li>Imaging<strong> (Visualizing)</strong> - Readers use a variety of sensory and conceptual processes (mental mapping) to understand texts. They imagine the sights, sounds, smells, see motion, hear dialogue and develop meaningful ways to develop their understanding.</li><li>Predicting<strong> </strong>– Predicting involves the use of text clues and the students’ prior knowledge as they make logical forecasts about what will occur next in the text.&nbsp;</li><li>Inferring<strong> - </strong>Inferring is a difficult strategy that separates good readers from poor readers. High-level thinking is needed when students use text clues and prior knowledge to draw conclusions about past and present events.</li><li>Making Connections – Good readers use their schema or prior knowledge to help them understand the text. When reading, they make connections to text, experiences or general world knowledge.</li><li>Monitoring<strong> </strong>– Keeping track of comprehension is what monitoring is all about. When students monitor their comprehension, they check to make sure they are visualizing, pay attention to unknown words, and notice when they do not understand text or are even not paying attention to what they are reading.</li><li>Summarizing<strong> </strong>– Summarizing is a difficult and complex strategy for many students. They need to separate the important parts of the text from the unimportant details as they tell the text in sequence. Summarizing is also the big picture, author’s message, theme and main idea all rolled into one.</li><li>Evaluating – Good readers are like little judges, weighing and evaluating before, during, and after reading. They evaluate whether they liked the text or not and how they did as readers. </li></ol>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Student-centered approaches that include physical movement are a form of kinesthetic learning that can be very effective, especially when introducing new concepts.&nbsp; Research has shown that movement creates more oxygen in the blood, which in turn, means that there is more oxygen brought to the brain.&nbsp; This leads to a significant increase in learning.</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Part of the Student-Centered learning is being physically involved in projects that apply towards learning. In the teaching-centered learning approach, teacher dictates knowledge. However, there are a couple of student-centered approach schools that have changed their pedagogy and assessment approaches to become more hands-on assignments giving students the ability to apply these learning concepts into the 21<sup>st</sup> century; lifelong skills to apply outside of school and into a lifestyle with work and beyond.<br><br>There are certain student-centered approaches or techniques that include physical movement that could be used in any subject such as:</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Independent projects</div><div>Group discussion</div><div>Peer mentoring of other students</div><div>Debates</div><div>Field-trips</div><div>Practical/ Rehearsals</div><div>Computer learning</div><div>Portfolio development</div><div>Poster presentations</div><div>Mind maps</div><div>Role play</div><div>Writing newspaper/ blog articles</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>&nbsp;</div><div>Reader's Theater<br><br>Reader's theater is a classroom activity that involves students reading parts of a story out loud. Students are given a script and work in small groups. Each student reads for their particular part or character. Reader’s theater can be completed online or the students perform their reader’s theater in front of the class. Props or costumes are not necessary.&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Students often learn best through cooperative activities with peers. Reader’s theater encourages students to practice their literacy skills which include reading, speaking, and listening. The beauty of reader's theater is that students enjoy reading their part and working on their accuracy, speed, and expression.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Here is a good website that I found that shows some good strategies to use in the classroom.&nbsp;<br><br>The one I personally liked was creating learning experiences or projects that are challenging. This will make the task more engaging, stimulating and multilayered. Having a broader and more open problem to solve (such as global hunger, green energy, or overpopulation issues) could allow for lots of discussion and debating in order to solve a problem together. They would have to work together not only to solve for the problem but also to present their topic to the teacher or their peers. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Shared or Paired Reading:<br><br>I think that pairing up different students with differing reading levels can be very beneficial for both parties. You can do this kind of reading within your classroom, paring up higher leveled reading students with lower ones. You could also do this between grade levels as well. Starting and building a strong reading program helps student development on all levels.&nbsp;<br><br>The "big" reader can act as a small teacher or tutor to the "little" one. They can provide explanations for meanings or pronunciation of words. The "little" one can continue to build up their confidence. This kind of reading also allows the teacher to observe and work individually with struggling readers. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>In the physical classroom environment, I would set up the desks so that they are facing each other or in groups to naturally foster collaboration. In my class, the desks are facing the front, like most traditional classrooms, which I feel leads to a lack of collaboration. In the online setting, google docs or other technology that allows for collaboration while allowing students to explore and respond to an inquiry question with some teacher guidance would be helpful. Tools like google docs allow students to collaborate despite being separated by time and space. For better or for worse, I tend to equate collaboration and student centered learning. To guide collaborative learning, I have made profuse use of LoiLo Note to get students to share their thoughts in a way that feels comfortable for them, while using it to my advantage to get students thinking about an inquiry question or just share their prior knowledge. I usually pick a couple thoughts and opinions to share. It helps me better guide student inquiry with idea, information, and quesitons when I know what they do or do not know. &nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>As an Early Years educator, we work really hard at trying to document our students' learning journey and this has been helped with the use of technology (photos, platforms such as Seesaw and Tapestry). Rather than have summative assessments we can make online portfolios for students and allow parents as well to access and contribute so that the learning can also go beyond the classroom.&nbsp;<br>At my school we were using https://tapestryjournal.com/ to do this. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Classroomscreen.com is a tool that help the teacher manage the classroom environment smoothly in both physical and online class. It display clear instructions for your lesson and bring more focus instead of distraction to your classroom. This can help student control their own learning and also be clear of classroom objectives when displayed on the classroom screen. This can also work for online class if teacher shares her screen. It has a timer and also random name select. I love the random name selection option because it gives all my students a chance to express and respond in class and also avoids biasness. We had online classes a few months ago and i used this tool alot. This tool also can help a teacher arrange a sitting plan for the physical classroom. I believe that this tool always a student centered classroom.</div>]]></description>

This is a bomb game that has all discussion questions/ comprehension questions. Student can work individually or teams. I think it is a fun assessment that also ensures that all student participate regardless of their disabilities. It actually supports all my ELL students and also challenges my high level students.

         <description><![CDATA[<div>For me, the essentials are (in the perfect/ideal world):<br>* A layout that allows for instant collaboration and discussion when needed (tables with groups of 3 or 4). Due to Covid restrictions, I had to do pairs this past year but I am hoping we can change to groups of 4.<br>* All students with access to a device (own or school-provided) and stable wifi access.<br>* Teacher has a laptop wirelessly connected to an overhead projector and a sound system (and stable wifi)<br>* Access to the Google environment or something equivalent.<br>* Access to good stationary and A3-size whiteboards for each table.<br><br>None of this will make sure student-centered learning happens but a good/creative teacher with access to this, can make it happen more easily.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I think setting up workstations around the classroom with the tools or tasks for students to complete activities can be a good way to help have a student-centered classroom. Ex: Passage to read at one station, tablets to do research at another, supplies for students to make a poster at another.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Most (if not all) of the good practices in education that involve collaboration are good because they are also student-centered. Effective techniques include:<br>* Jigsaw - Students are in charge of acquiring and passing on the information.<br>* Debates - Students are responsible for supporting their points of view while sharing and refuting ideas of others.<br>* Science investigations - Groups work in the design of experiments and collaborate to collect data, process it and communicate their findings. It is essential that each group designs their own investigation.<br>* Whole-class or group challenges - Students are given the responsibility of solving an open-ended question or challenge and the class/group collaborates to come up with a solution.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>When assessment tasks are designed or scaffolded in a way that allows students to monitor their own performance and make adjustments independently, they will give the teacher valuable information about the thinking process of the students.<br>I have used simple modifications to worksheets where rather than just providing the questions and the answers for students to check, I divide the questions into levels and for each question I provide a hint that students have to read when they get stuck in one question. This alone, gave students more tools to progress which increased ownership and made my intervention more effective.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>* Giving students options to communicate their understanding (oral, written, graphic...) in formative or summative tasks is a good way of creating ownership of their learning process while allowing them to work to their strengths.<br>* Scientific investigations where students plan their own experiment can be guided so pupils with different levels of ability are given the option to go for a simpler investigation. This differentiates the complexity of the task while keeping the individuality of the investigations.<br>* Students take notes in different ways when they watch videos or read material. They have different techniques and styles that can be shared in small groups. Exchanging notes on a common topic is something that can uses individual strengths and can give others valuable ideas.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>My favorites here are:<br>* Experimental work. It allows students not only to move but to manipulate material or equipment. This tactile stimulus for some students is a much more effective way to learn.<br>* Planning stations (physically spread around the classroom) where students have to complete different tasks is a great way to have students work independently while allowing them to move. If nine stations are planned, students can be asked to complete tic-tac-toe patterns as a challenge.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>One of the models to support language acquisition that places a strong emphasis on student background, context and interests is the SIOP model.

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I like a classroom where students can be placed in groups of 3 or 4 to promote collaboration. Tables should be large enough so that they also have space for individual tasks. Ideally each student should have their own device. The room should have a projector, speakers and a board (smart or traditional) to which all students have visual access. In particular, as I teach Science, I think it is important that the room has tables that are appropriate for experiments (material, size and access to gas and electricity).<br>For the online environment, platforms such as G.classroom and Moodle have been very useful so far. Students are able to access all the material through them.&nbsp;<br>I would say that a good tool kit for online learning could be any platform where:<br>- students are able to collaborate&nbsp;<br>- students are able to share their work with the teacher in a timely manner (before submitting their final work)<br>- random groups could be formed<br>- a timer could be set up for different tasks<br>- teachers are able to share the material with students<br>- teachers are able to give feedback in a timely manner<br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I like project based learning as this gives students the opportunity to learn in different ways. When they are assessed on their process as well as on their final outcome, students feel empowered and less anxious. Promoting self and peer review/ peer assessment is great for them to be aware of their process. Using tools such as checklists and rubrics is very useful in helping students assess their work. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>In group activities it is very important to know what the purpose of the activity is so that teachers organize the groups accordingly. When students work in groups of similar abilities and levels, it is easy for the teacher to focus on those who require more support. If there are mixed abilities and levels groups, it is very important to assign roles to each member so that everyone is able to contribute according to their abilities. In these groups, students teach each other by sharing their knowledge.&nbsp;<br>Another technique I use to address differentiation in by using choice boards or by allowing students to show their understanding based on their preferences. This doesn't have to be done in projects only, but it could also be done in simpler class activities.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>For Science, I can only think about four possible scenarios where intentional physical movement is involved:<br>1. Practical work- students need to move to the benches that are assigned for experiments and collect data there<br>2. Fieldtrips<br>3. Centers/ stations- students are assigned certain time to complete a particular task. They will need to move to the next station once the time is over.<br>4. Students work in pairs and once they complete their work one of them moves and the other remains in the same place. As students move around the class they share their work/ peer assess/ ask or answer questions, etc.<br><br></div>]]></description>

As an inquiry based approach, it is student centered as the teacher works as a guide for student inquiry.

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Assessment promotes student-centered learning and growth by providing useful feedback to the students themselves, their teachers, and others about what the students need in order to progress toward the learning target.&nbsp;</div><div>Assessments are not just tests nor grades, but also it's a great tool to help teachers to create a student-centered classroom. Assessment can help me learn more about my students, and build relationship with them. With the help of a variety of assessment tools, I can learn more about students' passions and learning styles and then use this information to design the student-centered environment.&nbsp;</div><div>While we implement self-assessment and peer-assessment in the classroom, it helps students to identify strengths and weaknesses in their own work and revise accordingly. Students will learn how to use rubrics and criterion to assess their works (or peer's works) and reflect on those experiences. All these skills are complementary to student-centered learning.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>
