  • I have found that students who can engage in an educational games are more excited to practice.
  • The actual gaming portion offers rewards like badges, scores and timed challenges.
    • Jeremy Brueck
       
      Interesting that gaming involves badges, another one of the items in the report.
  • There is even a push for students to create their own video games.
    • Jeremy Brueck
       
      I think this is something that we will see grow as the years pass.

  • Students might be engaging in the activity but not benefiting from it for a variety of reasons. Monitoring your students for success is still necessary.
    • Jeremy Brueck
       
      This is an important point. As a teacher how can/will you monitor your students?

Crowd Learning - 0 views

  • I believe that “crowd learning” is an important part of our educational society today.
    • Jeremy Brueck
       
      Why do you believe this? Explain your thinking here.
    • Rebecca Rhoads
       
      I believe that we learn by solving life's puzzles and we can do that by communicating and learning from our peers. Students would be able to grow at their own pace.
  • This would allow the students to be more independent by learning more information and taking charge of their own life.
  • They would be more intrinsic learners.

  • As a teacher, I would give students the resources to look up information this could be a web, different sites to look at, or just ways to organize their information.
    • Jeremy Brueck
       
      This is a good start to thinking about how you might apply crowd learning to your classroom. What other ways could you incorporate it?
    • Rebecca Rhoads
       
      I could also incorporate a real world problem and have the students create different solutions to solve it. This would allow for them to research the problem and think of diff ways to solve it. Then they could apply it to a challenge they might be facing to get more info before making a decision.
  • Gregory Freund created an interactive program called Versal-interactive-online-courses.
    • Jeremy Brueck
       
      Interesting. I have never heard of this. I will have to check it out.
  • While it incorporates a different learning style which is more student centered, there is still a role for the instructor as a guide. Teachers can still help facilitate and guide learners to better outcomes.
    • Jeremy Brueck
       
      This is a key point here and a big shift for teachers to make. Now a guide on the side rather than a sage on the stage.

Building a technology infrastructure for student learning objectives SmartBlogs - 1 views

  • While many states and districts devote a great deal of time and resources to developing SLOs, few think about creating a technology infrastructure or managing the tasks that must be accomplished to implement thousands of SLOs with fidelity.
  • districts must manage, analyze and report on hundreds or thousands of unique assessments.
    • khjones85
       
      I wonder how this will be achieved.  This seems very complicated.
    • Alexandria McNicholas
       
      I agree with you that this goal seems like such a stretch for a district to accomplish. It would be nice to see what the plan is for achieving this goal.
  • To ensure pre- and post-assessments are compatible and aligned for growth, an SLO technology platform should allow educators to easily view assessments and their attributes side by side, match items based on content and rigor, and apply or customize growth algorithms.

  • Implementing an SLO initiative across a school system is a complex endeavor. Properly managed, SLOs can energize a focus on learning, raise student achievement, and promote growth in professional practice

      On 10/21 I have an inservice day in my district where we will be talking about SLOs.  This has made me think of some good questions to ask about how exactly data will be collected, measured, and reported to administrators compared to the methods that we already use for these purposes.
    • Alexandria McNicholas
       
      What answers did you get?

    Background on what technology a district must have available to support effective use of SLOs.
