I view this as the attention getting/purpose driven step. 

Personal connection: Last year I created a lab called "Sphero's Digestive Adventure" where students had to create the digestive system and code their way through (without instructions). The backstory of the Sphero bot finding its way through the digestive system had many students think about Miss Frizzle and the magic school bus which I think helped them understand the concept. ]]> 2020-05-19 21:24:28 UTC https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/583553458 laurasearcy https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/583564061 Big takeaway: Students create their own procedure (with approval) and collect data.

Personal connection: In my Sphero/digestion lab, students had to create both the organ system correctly laid out (and approved) but also they had to use block coding to plan for Sphero's path through the digestive system. They would have to record their attempts and make progress notes to make improvements and reflect. However, in thinking about ADI and CER vs general inquiry, I wonder if this is fully applicable?]]> 2020-05-19 21:32:32 UTC https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/583564061 laurasearcy https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/583570202 Big takeaway: Students review anonymous reports using a rubric.

Personal connection: I have used a similar practice for an environmental advocacy project, biome project, and an SEL/neuro project. I had students review one another's work but given that they were all PBL assignments, I liked the personal connection and also holding the reviewer accountable. I can envision using the full double blind peer review, however, I would have to adapt to a project model, in addition to writing.]]> 2020-05-19 21:37:08 UTC https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/583570202 laurasearcy https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/583576131 Big takeaway: Teacher-lead explicit discussion that encourages personal reflection.

The article lists this step as #8. Additionally, I wonder how relevant this step is given that most educational models are shifting far away from teacher-lead work or explicit teacher-lead whole group discussions. I attended ASCD last year and even in my science sessions, I do not recall this being relevant. I notice the article was written in 2009, is there more updated literature that supports the use of the teacher in this way? Maybe I have misinterpreted this stage. ]]> 2020-05-19 21:41:27 UTC https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/583576131 laurac25 https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/589102933 Big Idea: This stage helps students revise and improve their arguments by sharing their arguments with the class and after sharing they can revise to improve the strength of their argument.]]> 2020-05-22 14:37:04 UTC https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/589102933 laurac25 https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/589107958 Students write a report that helps the students to show understanding of the content of the investigation and to utilize their data as evidence to support their argument.]]> 2020-05-22 14:39:23 UTC https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/589107958 davidd11 https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/589745872 It seems this style of teaching using 8 steps is much more detailed than the "old" scientific method.]]> 2020-05-22 21:05:49 UTC https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/589745872 davidd11 https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/589749276 2020-05-22 21:09:03 UTC https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/589749276 angelanoble1 https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/593525297 The stage 3 whiteboard session seems like a great way to check in with the students and gain insight into what they are thinking and how they are putting the information together.]]> 2020-05-25 19:34:05 UTC https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/593525297 meganstitt https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/594722004 Big Takeaway:
Real world application of feedback for the final report.

I feel like a lot of times students don't get the opportunity to see how much peer review can help them. Taking the time to allow them to process feedback and see areas in which they can improve is far more valuable than any feedback I can give as a teacher.]]> 2020-05-26 13:17:03 UTC https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/594722004 meganstitt https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/594729879 Students having the ability to learn how to investigate and use evidence to support their claim is crucial to success, and developing their literacy skills is an added bonus!]]> 2020-05-26 13:20:23 UTC https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/594729879 https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/594993142 Big Takeaway: This portion of the process is very similar to what we have been teaching in a CER (Claim, evidence, reasoning). It gets the students thinking about what explanation their data provides, what evidence (qualitative and quantitative) that they have and how they can put those two pieces together. Gets them thinking like a scientist and using those higher order thinking and processing skills-which they need. ]]> 2020-05-26 15:06:01 UTC https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/594993142 caitlin_meador https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/595001289 Big Takeaway: This portion of the process is very similar to what we have been teaching in a CER (Claim, evidence, reasoning).

Scientists have to be able to communicate appropriately with others and express their ideas in a way that makes logical sense. The Peer review process allows them to do that, but as the article mentions-feedback from your peers can sometimes be received better than feedback that comes from your teachers. ]]> 2020-05-26 15:10:28 UTC https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/595004385 caitlin_meador https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/595012025 Big takeaway-NOT a lecture and completely teacher led.  It is more of a socratic seminar sort of? I think?  Where we go over the big ideas and concepts from the investigation and help everyone make sense of what they saw and/or didn't see and how to improve.  

With one of the ADI labs I have done (Physical properties) it was interesting to see how my kids all interpreted their data and what they brought to the table in that process-but also how they thought their experiments went wrong.  For the most part they identified where they went wrong and improved their practices.

A suggestion made is for students to write out the investigation proposal and have the teacher approve it before beginning.  This is important in a middle school setting and holds the whole team accountable during the investigation. Also allows the teacher to check in with the group. ]]> 2020-05-27 15:16:21 UTC https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/597179295 https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/597293280 This step allows students to develop and enhance written and verbal communication using evidence to support reasoning. Middle school students typically lack skills to support arguments/ideas with substantive evidence. This step requires students to determine if their data is "relevant, sufficient and convincing enough to support their claim".]]> 2020-05-27 16:02:44 UTC https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/597293280 nicholastournaud https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/597522382 I love the concept of students having the freedom to develop/construct their own procedures/experiment.  This practice will require students to think critically and demonstrate deep understanding.  

I also think it important for us as teacher's to screen these ideas just a tad to make sure students are not way off track. ]]> 2020-05-27 17:42:40 UTC https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/597522382 nicholastournaud https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/597550188 I like the idea of anonymously reviewing peer journals.  It gives students an objective and unbiased critique of their work without feeling embarrassed of being "wrong".

Students form a claim, provide their supporting evidence, and justify how the evidence supports their claim (CER model). I appreciate that the ADI model incorporates additional stages to further engage students in critical thinking and reasoning with each other to establish deeper understanding of the guiding question. ]]> 2020-05-27 21:35:20 UTC https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/597930579 terrihyatt https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/598313786 I believe that this stage is where you can really hit paydirt with the students. They are primed to really learn. They've done the initial work, so they're invested; they're probably either more eager to share what THEY'VE done or eager to learn how to improve their work; their previous efforts have helped them develop "hooks" to better understand concepts as they're discussed; and the teacher has an excellent opportunity to identify and discuss misconceptions that appear.]]> 2020-05-28 04:40:55 UTC https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/598313786 terrihyatt https://padlet.com/lsuters/tehrtxkikcb/wish/598322525 I can imagine that a peer group may not really review a paper, either because they are rushing or because they still have questions about the concepts themselves.

After reading about ADI, I now realize that the demo lessons we completed were actually ADI lessons. 

The argumentation portion was completed with one person staying at the lab table with the white board to discuss with others who came to read the board.
