The Backchannel: Giving Every Student a Voice in the Blended Mobile Classroom | Edutopia - 4 views

    • sarahlbassett
       
      A backchannel could be a really useful adaptation for SPED and EL students in mainstream classes who find themselves left behind in conversation
    • moramichal
       
      just used SLAck in my workshop - it was a great experiment
  • They create a blended environment where teachers and students engage in both physical and online conversations so that learning is no longer confined to a single means of communication or even an arbitrary class perio
    • sarahlbassett
       
      This solves the "I don't have enough time with my students during class" problem if students have access to conversations beyond the limits of a class period

  • A face-to-face conversation while simultaneously reading might have been a distraction. However, by typing their thoughts, all students contributed their ideas while each having the autonomy to work at his or her own pace.
    • sarahlbassett
       
      I especially like having an outlet for students to work at their own pace on something while still contributing to a conversation
  • conversations were never los
    • sarahlbassett
       
      "The conversations were never lost" - this is a great point!  Students could read and re-read past conversations.  With a traditional speaking/listening conversation, it isn't possible to read at all, let alone re-read.

  • Charlie needed an alternative means to participate, and a backchannel would have provided him with that outlet.
  • a digital conversation that runs concurrently with a face-to-face activit
  • TodaysMeet would have let teachers create private chat rooms so that students could ask questions or leave comments during class. A Padlet wall might have fueled students to share their ideas as text, images, videos, and links posted to a digital bulletin board. The open response questions available in a student response system like Socrative or InfuseLearning could have become discussion prompts to give each student an opportunity to share his or her ideas before engaging in class discussion.

Start With Students: One Teacher's Design-Thinking Journey | Education Innovation D.C. - 5 views

  • My essential idea after many rounds of brainstorming was that students would self-select their station work after analyzing their individual data and creating their own personalized weekly learning plan.
    • msdianehahn
       
      We use iPads for games and other online learning apps on a regular basis.  Students have tracked their progress on apps only as far as getting so far = stickers/rewards.  Goal setting wasn't involved, nor were specific goals related to skills students needed to learn.  This could be a simple addition to our stations to make classroom learning with iPad apps more effective.
  •  
    How to incorporate technology into station learning.
  •  
    Hi Diane: I am wondering, does your school support iPads for students in your class? or, is it required that they purchase their own. Is this an online class or a face-face class?
  •  
    We have a classroom set of iPads that are available. Students don't purchase them, the school got them through a grant.

Flipping my Spanish Classroom - 3 views

  •  
    I hope this provides ideas of flipped classroom for all language teachers.
  •  
    Yes, this is great! I am hoping to do more of this in the future.
  •  
    Very interesting! I like the idea of Flipping foreign language class. I think it gives students more opportunities to depend on themselves on learning. This helps them to be better learners.
