Student Driven Feedback and Feedback in General
What if we did the same with our students?
What if the goal was the quality of the work our kids produced not the quantity or the amount of work we accomplish in a time period?
I am a huge supporter/practitioner of Project/Problem based learning scenarios. The biggest thing is the feedback process by both peers and by teachers. Watch the example in the video below and look at the progress in work.
It's something to think about. I know what I would want my own kids to accomplish. Completion of a task is one thing, but when you look at what task could be. All by working with others and taking their feedback to produce something exceptional. It makes me wonder how we can do more for our kids. Maybe its a shift in priorities?
NWEA Testing for Students with Accommodations
I will be making a testing schedule for our Spring NWEA testing. It will all be done on the ipads in the spring. We will be doing testing by grade level so we can more efficiently cover our NWEA testing accommodations. Please bear with us as we will have kids coming and going over the next few weeks for the winter NWEA window.
