Read and respond to a few of your colleagues posts. en-us 2021-03-14 23:01:04 UTC 2024-12-13 10:56:56 UTC hello@padlet.com lasleys https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1308262992 2021-03-14 23:04:43 UTC https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1308262992 sfitzsimons7 https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326299699 2021-03-18 16:06:50 UTC https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326299699 NPoulson13 https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326309049 As I read through the articles, my brain wanted to make a breakthrough, but either the M&M’s were too strong, or my drink was too tart because the connections were just not made. However, I did see the glow of the idea and believe I can get there eventually.
The direction my thinking was taking me was inspired by the idea of having students rewrite the standards. I’ve heard this before, but in context with what I just finished working on in class, this struck a chord. Then, combine this with the idea of having students work on activities that show their mastery of a standard, I am starting to get a better sense of how I can make this work in my classroom next year.]]> 2021-03-18 16:08:28 UTC https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326309049 jfinlinson https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326309544 I really think getting students to think about their learning is important. Many student say their stupid or can't do something, but I tell them just because you don't know something make you stupid. Then we all are stupid, there is something for all of us to learn and getting students to have a growth mindset is critical to their success. If they don't know, they can learn it. ]]> 2021-03-18 16:08:34 UTC https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326309544 mzierow1 https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326318105 2021-03-18 16:10:09 UTC https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326318105 jlester30 https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326334907 It may not work for everyone, but I have learned that students really need a direction to go rather than coming to school just to comply.  Once students are driven by their own goals, learning will be more meaningful.

I then plan on doing a ticket out the door every Thursday where I will ask questions that make the students reflect on their learning and their progress toward reaching their SMART goals.]]> 2021-03-18 16:15:28 UTC https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326347831 lcheeney https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326472695 WOW, how incredibly powerful would this be if each student had a standard template, shared with each of his teachers, set goals, and regularly evaluated and revised those goals in each course throughout the term. One uniform place for each student to keep track of his learning. Uniformity so that it is easy to use for students and teachers. Imagine the possibilities and the powerful impact this could have on our students' learning and ability to regulate their own thinking/learning and adjusting it accordingly.
We need to figure out how to pace and manage our goal cycles so that it is sustainable and meaningful for all students. ]]> 2021-03-18 16:37:45 UTC https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326472695 cholt47 https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326500521 This sounds awesome. It really pushes me to re-evaluate how I deliver, assign, and assess my curriculum. In math I think students need to engage with their work daily. I think most of them do without even knowing it. But showing students what this looks like and how understand their progress or understanding on their own will take some time. Once in place it will be awesome, but their does need to be a system as to how this looks and works. So I am a little overwhelmed by this one. ]]> 2021-03-18 16:42:38 UTC https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326500521 chrisbar30 https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326534227 2021-03-18 16:48:41 UTC https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326534227 jmathews29 https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326551014 It is very evident that goal setting and metacognition are related and you can't have one without the other. No pressure!]]> 2021-03-18 16:51:22 UTC https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326551014 mcollins195 https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326855818 Learning one's own thought process helps with evaluating my teaching strategies.  In my 27 years of teaching I do not think I have taught the same thing twice.  I reevaluate lessons each year, each unit, each lesson or every day. If it didn't work during 2nd period, it's time to reevaluate and change things up for 3rd period. Asking students to evaluate the lesson through using an exit ticket helps them reflect, but also helps me understand my teaching strategies.]]> 2021-03-18 17:47:40 UTC https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326855818 cchristensen44 https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326877979 Knowing why, how, and where  to get there are important. Students need to be able to self-monitor, figure things out, and make a plan (like a SMART Goal) if they are to effectively learn anything. As students embrace knowing where they are, where they are going, and how to get there I think they will increase their learning. Everyone learns different. These are the key building blocks to metacognition in my opinion. ]]> 2021-03-18 17:51:58 UTC https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326877979 apoulsen https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326887077 I love the idea of having students set goals at the beginning of a grading period (next Monday!) and then giving them weekly opportunities to assess themselves on those goals. The Ongoing Self Assessment & Learning Log looks like a great way to see where students are on certain standards, and weekly exit tickets are a great idea to get students thinking about their progress over the past week. They would also give me information to incorporate into the next week's instruction.]]> 2021-03-18 17:53:43 UTC https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326887077 msoderborg https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326894565 I liked learning some strategies like setting SMART Goals, Use an Exit Tickets weekly, FlipGrid activities to focus on the process of learning and then on-going self assessments using specific documents can be powerful tools we could use to get students and even teachers thinking about their learning.]]> 2021-03-18 17:55:13 UTC https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326894565 theaton4 https://padlet.com/lasleys/nj8wneinyxnbd1p3/wish/1326909979 In studying and going through the different forms for helping students with metacognition, I like the self -assessment and goal setting.  They both naturally led a student to metacognition.  I know that with my students a lot of times metacognition happens informally without recognition or evidence because of the nature of technical teaching it just happens.  It must to accomplish the assignments.   These forms and practices help build evidence that metacognitions
