      Tutorial for Socrative.
  • Assessments can include traditional, open response or multiple choice quizzes, exit tickets, and even the fast paced Space Race group activity.

  • Ask quiz questions to compare evidence of understanding with student self assessments.
  • Students can use their Chromebooks to play this active and absorbing game.

  • Students give feedback about their understanding in private and in real time. This means teachers can identify needs as they occur.” Justin Mann, the app’s developer, told me during a recent meeting.
  • adding colored backgrounds to answers that are wrong, so that I can instantly pinpoint which kids are grasping the concepts and which ones need further intervention
  • This technique, which I learned from an innovative educator, Jennie Magiera, allows me to quickly differentiate my instruction as I get real time information about student comprehension

      Interesting point! Maybe something we could address in the curriculum and also inform teachers?

      Vermont's Unique Needs to Digital Learning. Follows along with what I saw in ISTE and how GMUHS needs to build a strong vision.
  • How could/would digital learning environments increase students’: o Exposure to new ideas, communities and culture? o Civic engagement and responsibility? o Collaborations and community/state/national/global connections o Appetite for new experiences in learning?

  • Referencing the SAMR model, we still see a significant amount of Substitution, where traditional teaching and learning is simply moved to an electronic platform (i.e. a paper fill-inthe-blank worksheet is now an electronic fill-in-the-blank worksheet), but there are also examples that come up on the higher end of the model too, Redefinition. In this iteration of the creation of local Digital Learning Plans, we hope to bring more teachers to the Modification and Redefinition levels. So, one of our continuing areas of work must be in technology integration, perhaps following more of the models of embedded individuals that we know tend to produce better outcomes in terms of tech to support learning.
  • COMPUTER SCIENCE Revisited Another area of focus for our work moving forward is the re-development and a refocus of resources that can build teacher capacity around Computer Science as a field and possible career choice for our students
