This is actually a practice I had done during my 2^nd and 3^rd year of my bachelor’s degree. I wanted to figure out how I was improving as a student over time, and I found it to be both helpful and encouraging. It made me feel more confident about my learning abilities and how quickly I’m able to improve myself. I'm sure this would be a useful tool to my students as well. ]]> 2021-10-18 04:55:24 UTC https://padlet.com/brianna07damon/pd0l7ddo44a9g2m4/wish/1823217005 brianna07damon https://padlet.com/brianna07damon/pd0l7ddo44a9g2m4/wish/1823219140 I’d like to implement the strategy of "partner coaching" (Stern et al., 2017). It’s essentially a more detailed partner discussion where it ensures that students are able to give each other new perspectives and ideas. I can see this being especially useful for writing activities. This could be utilized in the planning and drafting process. ]]> 2021-10-18 04:56:48 UTC https://padlet.com/brianna07damon/pd0l7ddo44a9g2m4/wish/1823219140 brianna07damon https://padlet.com/brianna07damon/pd0l7ddo44a9g2m4/wish/1823224760 I can see this being used either for reflecting students’ current states of being or reflecting a discussion question/theme. This would be a great writing warm up. ]]> 2021-10-18 05:00:30 UTC https://padlet.com/brianna07damon/pd0l7ddo44a9g2m4/wish/1823224760 brianna07damon https://padlet.com/brianna07damon/pd0l7ddo44a9g2m4/wish/1823227135 This activity can be changed from being something discussed between one group to a debate activity where they try to get other students to join their side. This activity allows for individual reflection before joining with classmates to reflect upon whatever question/discussion topic the instructor chose. It’s very flexible and adaptable. ]]> 2021-10-18 05:01:48 UTC https://padlet.com/brianna07damon/pd0l7ddo44a9g2m4/wish/1823227135 brianna07damon https://padlet.com/brianna07damon/pd0l7ddo44a9g2m4/wish/1823230049 The “take a stand, then divide and slide” strategy is similar to the previous one I mentioned. This is another group activity that can hopefully capture the class’s interest and allows students who wouldn’t normally have discussions with each other to have the opportunity to. ]]> 2021-10-18 05:03:41 UTC https://padlet.com/brianna07damon/pd0l7ddo44a9g2m4/wish/1823230049 brianna07damon https://padlet.com/brianna07damon/pd0l7ddo44a9g2m4/wish/1823231712 For an English class I could come up with discussion questions for each group to respond to. I like that the textbook mentions having all the answers from each group on the posters so they can be reflected upon once the activity has wrapped up. This provides an opportunity for everyone to come together as a class and to have further discussion on the differing answers.  (Stern et al., 2017).]]> 2021-10-18 05:04:46 UTC https://padlet.com/brianna07damon/pd0l7ddo44a9g2m4/wish/1823231712 brianna07damon https://padlet.com/brianna07damon/pd0l7ddo44a9g2m4/wish/1823236937 These ideas have been taken from my discussion board posts for ITL528]]> 2021-10-18 05:08:21 UTC https://padlet.com/brianna07damon/pd0l7ddo44a9g2m4/wish/1823236937 brianna07damon https://padlet.com/brianna07damon/pd0l7ddo44a9g2m4/wish/1823263673 I would have my students do a creative project at the end of a semester to display their feelings/thoughts/interpretations on one of the texts read in the semester. They would have free choice on the type of project they'd like to do. I'd of course provide ideas such as doing a short story, poem, song, dance, painting, drawing, comic, social media project, etc. ]]> 2021-10-18 05:26:11 UTC https://padlet.com/brianna07damon/pd0l7ddo44a9g2m4/wish/1823263673 brianna07damon https://padlet.com/brianna07damon/pd0l7ddo44a9g2m4/wish/1823345288 I would have students write a few brief sentences about topics previously discussed in class, or a previous reading, or a brand new topic that I would introduce to them. This could either be a great warm-up or an efficient way to get students to think further about the topics even once the class has ended.]]> 2021-10-18 06:22:50 UTC https://padlet.com/brianna07damon/pd0l7ddo44a9g2m4/wish/1823345288 brianna07damon https://padlet.com/brianna07damon/pd0l7ddo44a9g2m4/wish/1823347215 Groupwork is something that would occur often in my class and I would assess these groups either through the types of discussions they were having amongst each other or have them fill out a worksheet together. ]]> 2021-10-18 06:24:04 UTC https://padlet.com/brianna07damon/pd0l7ddo44a9g2m4/wish/1823347215 brianna07damon https://padlet.com/brianna07damon/pd0l7ddo44a9g2m4/wish/1823349565 Brainstorming is an integral step to the writing process and I would monitor this activity by discussing students' ideas with them personally or being able to give them written feedback via response to a worksheet or outline. ]]> 2021-10-18 06:25:41 UTC https://padlet.com/brianna07damon/pd0l7ddo44a9g2m4/wish/1823349565 brianna07damon https://padlet.com/brianna07damon/pd0l7ddo44a9g2m4/wish/1823353863 I want to introduce new concepts/techniques/strategies to my students by showing them how I would approach the topic. English work is often open to one's own interpretation but hopefully by seeing the thought process I go through would show them what to think about while doing their own work. I would then do an activity right alongside them as a class. Finally, they would eventually complete the work on their own. ]]> 2021-10-18 06:28:26 UTC https://padlet.com/brianna07damon/pd0l7ddo44a9g2m4/wish/1823353863 brianna07damon https://padlet.com/brianna07damon/pd0l7ddo44a9g2m4/wish/1823356070 This is something that could be utilized either to get a gauge for what my students' base-level knowledge is on a topic and then I can construct a lesson from there. Another option is to give an informal quiz after a lesson in order to determine what things are needed to be re-focused on.]]> 2021-10-18 06:29:55 UTC https://padlet.com/brianna07damon/pd0l7ddo44a9g2m4/wish/1823356070
