The Path of the Student's Choice by Rashidah Ebb https://padlet.com/rebb07/ed8jq7o3m13b Incorporating Student Choice Into the Early Childhood Classroom by Rashidah Eb and Gena Stenger en-us 2019-05-02 23:19:37 UTC 2026-01-12 16:15:13 UTC hello@padlet.com The Importance Of Student Choice rebb07 https://padlet.com/rebb07/ed8jq7o3m13b/wish/356431168 According to McCombs, and Miller (2007),  " in order to address motivation, learning, achievement, and positive functioning, it is critical that the learner be considered just as important as the learning process (p.38)

According to Cast (2019) "Offering learners choices can develop self-determination, pride in accomplishment, and increase the degree to which they feel connected to their learning. However, it is important to note that individuals differ in how much and what kind of choices they prefer to have. It is therefore not enough to simply provide choice. The right kind of choice and level of independence must be optimized to ensure engagement." 

" In order to develop instrinsic motivation, instructors must be able to understand what drives their students, what they care about, and how they will be able to engage in learning. According to this network, strategies such as providing choice and autonomy, varying demands, allowing for collaborative work, specific feedback, and student reflection are all able to increase intrinsic motivation in students.- Natalie Griffin

Gordon, Meyer, and Rose (2014), state "Selection of strategy depends upon the learner (prior experience, preferences, amount of practice) and upon the context (home, alone or with others, being filmed, in competition)" (p.17).]]> 2019-05-02 23:47:33 UTC https://padlet.com/rebb07/ed8jq7o3m13b/wish/356431168 Six Facets of Understanding rebb07 https://padlet.com/rebb07/ed8jq7o3m13b/wish/356432711 A student who really understands ...
1. Can explain 
Student actions: Can explain  and provide evidence.. According to McTighe and Wiggins (2005), " An understanding refers to transferrable, big ideas having enduring value beyond a specific topic" (p.128).
Teacher actions: connect the recognition network as a source to provide options to make connections in content and to explain reasoning...using story boards, acting, writing, speaking to retell a process

2. Can interpret 
Student actions: Can make inferences and can create something new
Teacher actions: provide choices to make sense of stories, and problem solving..draw pictures, build, form on computer, ask essential questions of UBD

3. Can apply
Student actions: use skill and knowledge in a new situation and  can create/ develop 
Teacher actions: provide choice.. song, dance, skit, make believe play 

4. Sees in perspective
Student Actions: Can sees things from different points of view , different representations
Teacher actions: Compare and Contrast, analyzing music, songs
ask students about tools they use that help them with their learning 

5. Demonstrates empathy
 Student actions: to understand the diversity of thought and feeling in the world (avoid stereotypes and walk in someone elses shoes)
Teacher actions: choices of books, media that display various cultural backgrounds, health concerns, socioeconomics, music from various genres and meanings 

6. Reveals self-knowledge
Student actions: Self -assess their past and present work ..revise, edit , rethink
McCombs & Miller sate "Only through self-assessment that we gain the most complete insight into how sophisticated and accurate students' views are of the tasks, criteria, and standards they are to master (p.166) 

Teacher actions:  provide choices in tasks that are being completed (projects, take photographs of before and after) use the strategic network as a guide to develop assessments that support individual learners
