NLVM 9 - 12 - Algebra Manipulatives - 6 views

  • Visualize multiplying and factoring algebraic expressions using tiles.

      The Algebra Tiles would be a nice tool to have students explore the distributive property. I like the way it is set up because it leads to students begin thinking about how things are factored, which can be hard for students to understand

  • Solve simple linear equations using a balance beam representation.
    • efleonhardt
       
      I like both of the balance scales. I really like how they have one that involves negatives while the other does not. Students have a hard time understanding how negative numbers fit into solving equations and I think this could help them. I might use this is the launch for a discussion amoung the students

Rubrics as Effective Learning and Assessment Tools Laura Baker - 1 views

  • measurable criteria that can be counted or marked as present or not present in the work that is being evaluated. 
  • This allows the rubric to be used as an ongoing dialog between the teacher and student and allows the student to know when each criterion has been met and then make improvements as needed. (Lockett, 2001)
  • Although allowing student involvement in creating rubrics is time consuming, by allowing students a voice in creating their own rubric, the students have more ownership over their own learning and evaluation.

  • will be easier for the students to understand due to the fact that the students are the ones supplying the language for the criteria
  • when there is a wide range of variation between quality work and work that is not yet proficient.
  • writing assignments, use of scientific inquiry, problem solving, performance based learning, and presentations
  • that teachers scoring the same set of papers using the same rubric have a correlation value beyond 0.80
  • Students should be given rubrics at the beginning of an assignment because rubrics not only are valuable to teachers because they help in more consistent grading, but are helpful to students as well. 
  • Holistic rubrics are quicker to use than analytical rubrics because holistic rubrics don’t break down the task.
  • better diagnostic information and provide students more feedback about how to make his or her work better
  • Analytical rubrics, on the other hand, break down the final project into parts
  • empowered to take more responsibility for their own learning.
