There's Blogging and There's Blogging… | Primary Tech - 0 views

  • When it comes to classroom blogging, I am an advocate of a program that: begins with a class blog before allowing students to work on their own blogs is integrated into a literacy program on a regular basis (while incorporating other curriculum areas) sets high standards for writing, design, netiquette etc. is regularly maintained and is an evolving space allows students to express themselves while improving their educational outcomes provides feedback and explicit teaching to students begins with a high level of teacher guidance, before increasingly offering students more responsibility.

Experts & NewBIEs | Bloggers on Project Based Learning: How Does PBL Support Authentic ... - 0 views

  • To incorporate authentic literacy, be sure to answer these questions when you design and implement a project:Does the project include an authentic written product that someone outside the school context would create?Does the project include a written product that meets a real need?Does the project set students up to generate their own questions to frame their investigation into the Driving Question?Does the project enable students to find answers to their questions?Does the project include critique, ideally by an expert or the product recipient?Does the project allow students to present their work to the intended recipient?If you can answer “yes” to these questions, you’ve got it: a fully authentic literary experience for your students.
  • For example, in the Small Acts of Courage project at King Middle School in Portland, Maine, students researched and wrote about local stories of the Civil Rights Movement. In response to the Driving Question, “What was Maine’s contribution the Civil Rights Movement?“, they created a book for a public audience which included people who participated locally in the struggle for civil rights.

Transformative Questions : 2¢ Worth - 0 views

  • “How do we create a culture of learners that thrive in the 21st century?”
  • Those qualities are, That the experience is responsive, It provokes conversation, It inspires personal investment, and It’s guided by safely-made mistakes.
  • Classroom Teachers: How might I alter this assignment or project so that it “Responds” to the learner? How can the experience “Talk Back?” How might I plant barriers within the assignment that force learners to “Question” their way through — to value the “questions” not just for “answers?” How can I ban silence in my classroom, provoking “Conversation” with my assignments and projects, expecting learners to exchange ideas and knowledge? How can I make their learning worth “Investing” in? How might the outcomes of their learning be of value to themselves and to others? How am I daring my students to make the “Mistakes” that feed the learning dialog?

  • Administrators: How does the learning here “Respond” to the learner? How does the learning “Talk Back” to the learner and to the community? Have my classrooms banned silence? Do the learning experiences “Provoke Conversation” by expecting learners to exchange knowledge? Are my classrooms places that student “Questions” as much as their answers? How do the learning environments in my school inspire learners to invest their time and skills for something larger? How are learners being dared to make the “Mistakes” that feed the learning dialog and how am I a part of that dialog?

    Awesome questions to ponder and apply
