Teachers share formative assessment strategies that work | eSchool News - 0 views

  •  
    Formative assessment is an essential part of teaching because it helps guide instruction. Checking for understanding of important concepts helps the teacher decide to move on or to continue instruction to ensure that crucial information is not lacking. Because it does inform instruction, formative assessment should be incorporated on a regular, if not daily, basis.

Nine Ways to Improve Class Discussions - 0 views

  •  
    I once heard class discussions described as "transient instructional events." They pass through the class, the course, and the educational experiences of students with few lingering effects. Ideas are batted around, often with forced participation; students don't take notes; and then the discussion ends-it runs out of steam or the class runs out of time. If asked a few days later about the exchange, most students would be hard-pressed to remember anything beyond what they themselves might have said, if that.

Why Ed Tech Is Not Transforming How Teachers Teach - Education Week - 0 views

  •  
    "Indeed, a host of national and regional surveys suggest that teachers are far more likely to use technology to make their own jobs easier and to supplement traditional instructional strategies than to put students in control of their own learning. Case study after case study describe a common pattern inside schools: A handful of "early adopters" embrace innovative uses of new technology, while their colleagues make incremental or no changes to what they already do."

Mystery, Labs, and Engineering Challenges - Mosa Mack Science - 0 views

  •  
    Mosa Mack Science is devoted to helping you move towards NGSS inquiry-based instruction with reliable, entertaining, and rigorous resources. What is Mosa Mack Science? Mosa Mack Science is a library of NGSS-aligned, inquiry units containing three lessons: The Solve: An animated science mystery and vocabulary manipulative The Make: A hands-on lab The Engineer: An engineering challenge that allows students to apply what they've learned to solve real world scenarios. The lessons focus on teacher support and include assessment rubrics, graphic organizers for students and prepared PowerPoint presentations. Where did Mosa Mack Science come from? Mosa Mack Science was born out of one teacher's frustration with the existing resources for middle school science educators. While teaching science in New York City, founder Lissa Johnson realized that the online resources were ineffective: they lectured her students and failed to make science relevant. Johnson wanted to fix this problem and created Mosa Mack Science to inspire a new generation of scientists. The Mosa Mack team now includes writers from This American Life, artists from Nickelodeon and expert curriculum creators out of the Stanford Scale program. Through this team, Mosa Mack Science breathes life into inquiry science.

Five key strategies to get/keep kids engaged at school - 0 views

  •  
    "What does student engagement look like? I have received this question from teachers in a number of different forms. Often the words "apathetic" or "unmotivated" are used in place of "disengaged." But the point is the same. Many of us have had students in the classroom whose stubborn lack of interest or motivation threatens to undermine the positive learning environment we've tried to create. How do we turn this around?"
