Decide
The best way to attack this online learning stuff is to make a plan beyond the content of your lesson. In this module we will jump into the puddle of planning for ways that we will inspire and motivate kids through assessment for learning strategies. This is where we start to curate our personal Distance Learning Roadmap!
In this module, you will come out with a plan for the entire year and a clear picture of what your students can know, do, and articulate. You will know exactly what you can gather for evidence of learning that will set up your entire year.
Create
Who doesn't love to create!! This is the part of the puddle where we go through the surface of the product puddle and into the splashes of the processes of thinking that happened. This module is all about teachers modelling their own learning and how they follow criteria to showcase the quality of work they expect. The students will also have time to create and practice the strategies that they learn alongside their teachers!
In this module, you will come out of it with your own spreadsheet for planning, examples of success criteria, ways to model your own learning and get students involved in the learning, ways to get students to create or use criteria to move their learning forward, and ways to batch your planning so that you are not scrambling from week to week.
Engage
This is where all the fun happens! This is where we engage the students to jump deep into the puddle of learning to find the underbelly of grit, mess, and the residue of their learning.
In this module, we will look at ways to engage students in demonstrating and gathering their own evidence of learning through a virtual platform! You will come away with how to build and use your support team, reflection stems and criteria conferencing questions, lesson templates on Zoom workshop lessons, and ways to use Google classroom, Google Keep, Read/Write Google, and Google slides to enhance your feedback and AFL strategies.
This module is all about building connections, providing support, inspiring the students, empowering students, sharing their wins, getting feedback, gathering evidence of learning, and most of all, having fun again!
