This allows them to see different ways to look at the problems at hand by collaborating with their classmates. ]]> 2018-02-03 23:50:10 UTC https://padlet.com/missgraviett/h5hpum0s92as/wish/227800667 missgraviett https://padlet.com/missgraviett/h5hpum0s92as/wish/227801259 Students first solve problems individually and then they meet with a predetermined group to discuss their thought process. This helps students see the perspective of their classmates. They can also learn from their classmates if they are struggling with a concept. ]]> 2018-02-04 00:07:18 UTC https://padlet.com/missgraviett/h5hpum0s92as/wish/227801259 missgraviett https://padlet.com/missgraviett/h5hpum0s92as/wish/227801438 -Flippity: You can use this to randomly assign groups. This is a Google Extension that is easy to use. You can set the group size, or the amount of groups after entering your class list. 
-iPevo: You can have your students complete the independent work by using iPevo. This is like an interactive whiteboard that also allows them to record their voice so they can share their thinking. One tip for this would be to have your students upload their videos to Google Drive to make them easily accessible by all of their group members.]]> 2018-02-04 00:13:50 UTC https://padlet.com/missgraviett/h5hpum0s92as/wish/227801438 missgraviett https://padlet.com/missgraviett/h5hpum0s92as/wish/227801649 This strategy is still cooperative learning in that students are working in groups. However, they are asked more comparative questions. This can be more of a reflection question on their own learning or a content based question. ]]> 2018-02-04 00:21:34 UTC https://padlet.com/missgraviett/h5hpum0s92as/wish/227801649 missgraviett https://padlet.com/missgraviett/h5hpum0s92as/wish/227801658 This is more of a performance task to see how well students understood the new content. This can also include peer critiques for the group members. The criticism can provide useful tips for the students to consider to make their presentation even better, or it could just be a comment about their thought process. ]]> 2018-02-04 00:21:59 UTC https://padlet.com/missgraviett/h5hpum0s92as/wish/227801658 missgraviett https://padlet.com/missgraviett/h5hpum0s92as/wish/227801741 -Prezi: This is a presentation software. Students can use this to make a presentation to present to the class. One tip for this would be to guide your students through this process once or provide a tutorial video because it can be tricky to use. You can also show them how to import videos or pictures into their presentations.
-Google Slides: This is another way that students can present their learning through a presentation. If your school is a Google school I would recommend this since it is easily accessible to them. I also feel that this is more user friendly. ]]> 2018-02-04 00:25:25 UTC https://padlet.com/missgraviett/h5hpum0s92as/wish/227801741 missgraviett https://padlet.com/missgraviett/h5hpum0s92as/wish/227801969 -Google Drawings: This can be used as a technological anchor chart. Students can make posters as their presentation, but put it in a more eye appealing way. This also allows students to go in and make comments right on the page to show where they are referring to in their comment. This would be a great way to combine the performance and the peer critique piece.
-MindMeister:  This is a mind mapping strategy that students can use to make their presentation. This can bring their thought process to life and allow them to organize their thinking. One tip would be to create a Google Doc to share the links. The students could then go in and make comments under each link. That way they people don't ruin their actual presentation by adding to it. ]]> 2018-02-04 00:33:40 UTC https://padlet.com/missgraviett/h5hpum0s92as/wish/227801969
