Students are also more engaged when there is a hands on activity that goes along with the task. Also, students are more engaged when they know their voices are heard: recording, sending it to families etc. ]]> 2020-10-27 15:16:49 UTC https://padlet.com/SchlechtyCenter/qk9ui8jyqg6bsjlg/wish/866118180 What others are saying https://padlet.com/SchlechtyCenter/qk9ui8jyqg6bsjlg/wish/866184584 Students were engaged when they were challenged, when teachers encouraged creativity, and critical thinking.

Students enjoyed the customized learning that’s tailored to the individual. Students want to know how their new learning can apply to real-life situations. They need to know the guidelines they will have, but enjoy the opportunity to choose how to learn and show their learning and the opportunity to follow their learning wherever it may lead. They didn’t seem to see things as failures, but rather new questions and learning that have been brought up. ]]> 2020-10-27 16:41:42 UTC https://padlet.com/SchlechtyCenter/qk9ui8jyqg6bsjlg/wish/866546707 Cumulative Thoughts https://padlet.com/SchlechtyCenter/qk9ui8jyqg6bsjlg/wish/866547123 Project/problem based related to content with their voice heard.

Over the course of this unit, you can choose how you want to create your project, but you must do all 4 within the year. 
Public appeal- Students have a choice to who their audience is: post it on the web, share with teacher, share with the school, share with parents. 
Collaboration- Most students thrive with collaboration, but it can also cause stress for others. ]]> 2020-10-27 16:42:01 UTC https://padlet.com/SchlechtyCenter/qk9ui8jyqg6bsjlg/wish/866548499 Cumulative thoughts 4-6 https://padlet.com/SchlechtyCenter/qk9ui8jyqg6bsjlg/wish/866548729 It is important to teach to the whole student. If we take the time to create meaningful experiences off their interests, it shows the teacher's engagement to the student's social and emotional well-being. Technologies that allow for collaboration and creativity are appealing to these students. Not everything has to be on technology for these students to be engaged, especially if it is the wrong technology tool for that activity. Students want to know they are solving a problem, making a difference, and doing meaningful work in which it creates a happy and healthy learner.]]> 2020-10-27 16:42:04 UTC https://padlet.com/SchlechtyCenter/qk9ui8jyqg6bsjlg/wish/866548729 Cumulative Post https://padlet.com/SchlechtyCenter/qk9ui8jyqg6bsjlg/wish/866571526 -Acknowledging that you will have students that are passionate about new ideas and students that need that novel packaging.
