Making a list is usually straightforward and requires little thought. But when it comes to ordering and prioritizing items in that list, higher-level skills of analysis and evaluation are put to use. The Visual Ranking Tool brings focus to the thinking behind making ordered lists. Students identify and refine criteria as they assign order or ranking to a list. Items in the list may be represented by images. Students must explain their reasoning and can compare their work with each other in a visual diagram. This tool supports activities where students need to organize ideas, debate differences, and reach consensus.

Thanks Marshal. I loved the tool when we used it in class, but I can't seem to use it with my students. I signed up for an account, but I'm not getting the permissions I need to get into the tool. Frustrating. Any hints?

Substitution, Augmentation, Modification, Redefinition Model is a powerful tool to prompt teacher thinking about effective use of Technology.  Used in conjunction with  the TPACK model and the Anesu tech GEs page: http://www.anesu.org/curriculum/technology-grade-expectations teachers will have some grounded models to consider meaningful integration.

I enjoyed using this online tool to record and save audio on an image. By being able to embed the image and audio easily into online spaces I think it gives coaches a way of seeing and hearing stories from learners

A practical example for teachers to use Positive Presuppositions  in the classroom. This could be a guide for coaches in how positive presuppositions are framed

Nice, simple, easy read that sends a thoughtful message. Good find!

AR Toolkit - Great questions for coaches in developing Action Research questions - links on left to other strategies relating to developing action research

Thanks for adding this to our tool kit. Often it is hard to find just the right protocol; having key tags like this will help us quickly find what we need.

Example of innovative teaching using Glogster. This tool enables collaboration amongst a group of learners. Would be useful for teams when working through inquiry

The Making Meaning Protocol would be a useful strategy for having learners tell their stories and an opportunity to use positive presuppositions.

Are you N, S, E, or W? How about your colleagues? What are the strengths and challenges of each perspective?

I like this protocol. i think its a great way of developing trust within a group

A slide share about the use of SOAR to help strategic planning & Appreciative inquiry. The first 20 slides are good background to the process of AI

I really like this tool, and can see many uses of it both with co-learners and with students! It could be used to help facilitate understanding through a "What-How-Why? activity in a Design Thinking process. I envision a group of educators watching a video of students working in a classroom and responding with observations at different points in the video - having the video time stamp and ability to respond to other people's comments would be a great tool to be able to use in an asynchronous manner. And equally for students - an effective tool for them to use video for observation and reflection on their learning!
