For example, often times students are limited to taking a written test to prove they have met a common core standard. How can we provide students with more choices within the classroom to help them succeed and show their own strengths and drive their own learning?]]> 2019-02-13 17:43:22 UTC https://padlet.com/jober1/c16uea0xe8j6/wish/330937484 dsims21 https://padlet.com/jober1/c16uea0xe8j6/wish/331447510 I think that giving students different options to complete assignments would help students show off their strengths and interests in the classroom. For example, certain projects could give students the option to draw, build models, or write songs about the course material in order to show that they have an understanding. ]]> 2019-02-14 18:17:39 UTC https://padlet.com/jober1/c16uea0xe8j6/wish/331447510 mebers https://padlet.com/jober1/c16uea0xe8j6/wish/332165980 1. Students learn in different ways so it makes sense they would show what they learned in different ways.  
- Performance is a great way to show what is learned.

Competition in a safe manner can help students all participate in sharing their knowledge. I use a "Voice off" in my class. Students choose a section of their unit and challenge another group in their knowledge of the section. ]]> 2019-02-17 21:03:39 UTC https://padlet.com/jober1/c16uea0xe8j6/wish/332166185 mebers https://padlet.com/jober1/c16uea0xe8j6/wish/332166404 3. Have you used a digital format for students to create a video of their learning? WeVideo is a form I have used and had success at. ]]> 2019-02-17 21:05:25 UTC https://padlet.com/jober1/c16uea0xe8j6/wish/332166404 mebers https://padlet.com/jober1/c16uea0xe8j6/wish/332166574 4. Have you thought about using the students interests like video games and technology for mediums of presentation? ]]> 2019-02-17 21:06:46 UTC https://padlet.com/jober1/c16uea0xe8j6/wish/332166574 mebers https://padlet.com/jober1/c16uea0xe8j6/wish/332167197 5. One thing students often complain about when collaborating a project is when one or more persons in the groups doesn't pull his/her weight. Having students involved in creating their own method of presenting can help with the equalization of work in a project. When the work is shared it is easier to assess student learning. ]]> 2019-02-17 21:11:51 UTC https://padlet.com/jober1/c16uea0xe8j6/wish/332167197 mebers https://padlet.com/jober1/c16uea0xe8j6/wish/332173015 6.How can you connect classroom learning to family and or the community?  ]]> 2019-02-17 21:58:39 UTC https://padlet.com/jober1/c16uea0xe8j6/wish/332173015
