Implementation in an Elementary Classroom (Articles) - 0 views

  • the children “do science.”

      Will the students be taught how theorize, test, analyze, or experiment? Or without telling the students this is what they are already doing? Is there any pre-teaching to the unit about rocks or exploring on their own?

      I think this is a great idea to invite scientists who are women! It makes the nation's stereotypes decrease and women in the science field increase.

      The way Mrs. Moore teaches makes sense to me. I can finally see how personalized learning can work without using computers and technology. I think some teachers in my building already do this without realizing that it is PL.

  • helping children gain active control over the process of thinking so they learn how to learn, which will serve them well throughout their lives.

      I think Personalized learning is easier to do in a classroom with science and social studies because they are more exploratory subjects compared to reading and math. Anybody have good ideas on how to make reading and math personalized without using technology?

      I'm not sure if I can see this happening at an elementary school. I think personalized learning would be more beneficial for MS and HS. Also, what is the teacher's role in PL? Do they do any teaching? Kids could essentially be homeschooled if we are just going to stick a computer or ipad in their face all day.

      I think teachers who are not familiar with PL would need a lot of training if my school district decided to convert from a standard school to a PL school. I would like to see a video of how this works from a new teacher to an experienced teacher.

      I'm wondering the same thing...how does PL work when everyone has different interests in the same classroom? How much pre-planning comes from the teachers?

      We currently have a chromebook cart that 5 classrooms share. How much money would the school district have to invest to have at least 8 computers in every classroom?

      I'm concerned that teachers are not teaching enough deep learning in the general education classroom in grade K-4. There is so much focus on getting 120 minutes of reading but it mainly goes toward the daily 5 and not enough connected learning to the world. How do we incorporate deep learning into the daily 5?
  • of what deep learning now requires in a connected world.
  • better test scores. And, if that’s what we value as the most important outcome of schooling,

      I had terrible test scores as a child and I get test anxiety about if I have enough time to finish the test. How can educators think that test scores are the best outcome for students?
