Tide is for the students who feel overwhelmed with the knowledge and "believe the tidal wave of information might drown them. Students in the Gain group understand the basics, but still have knowledge to gain. Students in the Bold group feel confident about their knowledge of the material that they learned, but they may have some questions along the way. Students in the Cheer group are confident in their knowledge and know that they will be successful. In their chosen corners, they will work on activities to enrich or improve their understanding of the required content. It's used before a summative assessment.]]> 2018-01-30 15:08:04 UTC https://padlet.com/jamiedeady/vuec6mg8wzwf/wish/226116784 jamiedeady https://padlet.com/jamiedeady/vuec6mg8wzwf/wish/226118264 -Text

2) Clear Target- How can each student achieve the next target level?
3) Sound Design-Write and/or select assessment items, tasks, scoring
guides, and rubrics that meet standards of quality.( These will be their cooperative learning groups to improve, reinforce, or enrich their understanding of the lesson. Students select the Tide detergent if they feel the information is a tidal wave coming down on them. Gain is the detergent selected by students who understand the basics, but need more assistance. Students select the Bold detergent if they are confident with the material, but they have a few questions. Cheer represents the students needing enrichment activities for the unit of instruction. Each detergent is scaffolded for student success and represents a readiness level for the assessment. Students use their homework and previous assessments/activities to determine which detergent has the appropriate activities.
4) Effective Communication-Record formative assessment. (post the activities on your learning management site, blog, wiki, or website for students to easily navigate the different "detergents." Provide the learning opportunities online to allow the students to navigate through the different levels. They can work alone, in pairs, or in groups to promote collaboration.) Combine and summarize information appropriately to
accurately reflect current level of student learning.
5) Student Involvement- Students are 100% involvement. This is a self-assessment and will help them set their goals.]]> 2018-02-06 14:45:48 UTC https://padlet.com/jamiedeady/vuec6mg8wzwf/wish/228621590
