My partners and I decided to choose this topic because as educators, we are constantly looking for ways to increase engagement and achievement. The notes below are my major takeaways from conducting the research during this semester. ]]> 2021-05-16 03:44:01 UTC https://padlet.com/danielleson97/bsme1brskoxafbu/wish/1527768401 danielleson97 https://padlet.com/danielleson97/bsme1brskoxafbu/wish/1527768584 Student choice promotes engagement and motivation, allows students to make connections with what they are learning, and increases their achievement.]]> 2021-05-16 03:44:15 UTC https://padlet.com/danielleson97/bsme1brskoxafbu/wish/1527768584 danielleson97 https://padlet.com/danielleson97/bsme1brskoxafbu/wish/1527770478 1. Build relationships with students to find their current interests.
2. Determine students' current levels of understandings and preferences before selecting learning options. 
3. Ensure that the learning options are inclusive and appropriate to the students' needs.
4. Listen to feedback from students and make observations and changes to the choice board that is implemented, if needed.]]> 2021-05-16 03:46:39 UTC https://padlet.com/danielleson97/bsme1brskoxafbu/wish/1527770478 danielleson97 https://padlet.com/danielleson97/bsme1brskoxafbu/wish/1527774775 Student choice can motivate students with learning difficulties because it allows them to choose activities they feel more confident in and are interested in. ]]> 2021-05-16 03:51:52 UTC https://padlet.com/danielleson97/bsme1brskoxafbu/wish/1527774775 danielleson97 https://padlet.com/danielleson97/bsme1brskoxafbu/wish/1527776658 I wonder how my virtual comments on my students' Google Classroom assignments is supporting them in comparison to my feedback that is hand written comments. ]]> 2021-05-16 03:53:49 UTC https://padlet.com/danielleson97/bsme1brskoxafbu/wish/1527776658 danielleson97 https://padlet.com/danielleson97/bsme1brskoxafbu/wish/1527778358 I wonder if Imagine Math and Literacy (intervention online program recommended by my district) can support my students with increasing their knowledge in foundational skills. ]]> 2021-05-16 03:56:00 UTC https://padlet.com/danielleson97/bsme1brskoxafbu/wish/1527778358 danielleson97 https://padlet.com/danielleson97/bsme1brskoxafbu/wish/1527784378 I wonder if websites like Nitrotype, will better my students' typing skills and/or speed. ]]> 2021-05-16 04:02:23 UTC https://padlet.com/danielleson97/bsme1brskoxafbu/wish/1527784378 danielleson97 https://padlet.com/danielleson97/bsme1brskoxafbu/wish/1533407336 During week 2 of this course, we engaged in taking a multiple intelligence survey. My top two scores were social/interpersonal and self. I was surprised because these intelligences are complete opposites, but the descriptions from the results definitely matched my personal experiences. This process me realize that students take on several types of intelligences, not just one. The note below are the key points I learned for each intelligence, so that I may better understand my future learners. ]]> 2021-05-17 23:15:52 UTC https://padlet.com/danielleson97/bsme1brskoxafbu/wish/1533407336 danielleson97 https://padlet.com/danielleson97/bsme1brskoxafbu/wish/1533416699 - Language: Students may enjoy activities related to words.

I've always pictured a researcher as someone who is wearing a white coat in a lab. Earlier in this program, I learned that teachers put on the "hat" of a researcher every single day! The action research case study made me reflect on the importance of this process. It is essential for all educators to engage in the process of comparing/examining data, implementing interventions, and making necessary changes to those interventions in order to better support the diverse needs of their students. Working together with my group, we were able to see the positive impact student choice had on a class' achievement. I feel confident in conducting my own action research with some "wonders" from my original Padlet. ]]> 2021-05-17 23:33:57 UTC https://padlet.com/danielleson97/bsme1brskoxafbu/wish/1533436199 danielleson97 https://padlet.com/danielleson97/bsme1brskoxafbu/wish/1533451208 - Culture: Students come from different cultural backgrounds. Educators should be aware of them and be careful with forming any stereotypes.
- Gender: Research shows that there are very small cognitive differences between male and female students (Omrod, 2014).  Educators should never assume a student's achievement based on their gender. 
- Socioeconomic Status: Students from lower SES families may lack foundational skills or support at home. Educators should make sure to provide extra support and services to these students in order to support their overall achievement. ]]> 2021-05-17 23:42:45 UTC https://padlet.com/danielleson97/bsme1brskoxafbu/wish/1533451208 danielleson97 https://padlet.com/danielleson97/bsme1brskoxafbu/wish/1533462187 - Become aware of any personal cultural or gender biases.
- Intentionally learn about your students' cultural backgrounds.
- Use your students' strengths and build upon what they know. 
- Eliminate any stereotypes that may be present in the classroom. 
- Make sure your classroom library is full of culturally diverse books. 
- Include the perspectives of multiple cultures in your instruction.
- Locate and provide resources for students who have low SES backgrounds. ]]> 2021-05-17 23:48:54 UTC https://padlet.com/danielleson97/bsme1brskoxafbu/wish/1533462187
