Might require some initial training / set up, but could use phones, borrow camera and tripod from TV, use the new, fancy RESA thing https://padlet.com/devaron3/y37pj6jopfa2/wish/247892480 2018-04-02 18:11:19 UTC https://padlet.com/devaron3/y37pj6jopfa2/wish/247892480 Could this (or ONE aspect) be included on the agency sheet you are already doing? Then maybe switch focus weekly / monthly / quarterly? https://padlet.com/devaron3/y37pj6jopfa2/wish/247895894 2018-04-02 18:20:52 UTC https://padlet.com/devaron3/y37pj6jopfa2/wish/247895894 Impromptu opportunities? Could be content related or in general. (Even handshake...will explain)(What's up?...can explain) https://padlet.com/devaron3/y37pj6jopfa2/wish/247896350 2018-04-02 18:22:00 UTC https://padlet.com/devaron3/y37pj6jopfa2/wish/247896350 Fishbowl technique: Give class a brief set of rubric criteria. Issue a speaking prompt. Pairs practice prompt; class "fishbowls" feedback per rubric criteria. Reflect; move quickly to next pair. https://padlet.com/devaron3/y37pj6jopfa2/wish/247908403 2018-04-02 18:59:17 UTC https://padlet.com/devaron3/y37pj6jopfa2/wish/247908403 Maybe an exit slip idea (once a week). For 'asking questions' row....'After learning about _____what questions come to mind? Maybe also use as a good listening check in? https://padlet.com/devaron3/y37pj6jopfa2/wish/247908581 2018-04-02 18:59:52 UTC https://padlet.com/devaron3/y37pj6jopfa2/wish/247908581 Small Group Assessment - I used to do this with socratic seminars. For half of the period, half of the class discusses while the other class silently observes/critiques, and then switch. Students prepare for discussion beforehand with provided questions. Using half at a time, gives the teacher opportunity to listen to all students participate. I'd suggest splitting your block class in half, so it is easier to manage in a smaller setting. https://padlet.com/devaron3/y37pj6jopfa2/wish/247908582 2018-04-02 18:59:52 UTC https://padlet.com/devaron3/y37pj6jopfa2/wish/247908582 Wonder https://padlet.com/devaron3/y37pj6jopfa2/wish/247908599 How can listening be assessed as oral communication? Does it have to be in conjunction with presenting ideas or asking clarifying questions of other ideas?]]> 2018-04-02 18:59:55 UTC https://padlet.com/devaron3/y37pj6jopfa2/wish/247908599 Create an instant feedback "Assignment" where you put your immediate thoughts (1-5) on the presentation so students at least know how they have done in terms of presenting/being in front of the class. These scores could be small but also give you a quick way to remember how well they presented, disregarding content. I sometimes put in immediate grades using an ipad as my students are at the board using my computer. https://padlet.com/devaron3/y37pj6jopfa2/wish/247909057 2018-04-02 19:01:32 UTC https://padlet.com/devaron3/y37pj6jopfa2/wish/247909057 Self Guided https://padlet.com/devaron3/y37pj6jopfa2/wish/247909281 Can they use their smart phones to record parts of a presentation and refine from there? Can we trust them to use this technology without distraction?]]> 2018-04-02 19:02:18 UTC https://padlet.com/devaron3/y37pj6jopfa2/wish/247909281 https://padlet.com/devaron3/y37pj6jopfa2/wish/247909339 Slips (quarter sheet of paper) with prewritten feedback "more detail", "use different vocabulary", or other things you often want to say. Carry around the slips and circle the feedback you need to give and hand it to the student.

That could be assessed as a minor oral grade where content isn't the main objective to be assessed.]]> 2018-04-02 19:04:22 UTC https://padlet.com/devaron3/y37pj6jopfa2/wish/247909862
