@alejandroeight A5: This self-assessment provides feedback that allows the teacher to determine understanding. #galaxyleadspbl

@alejandroeight @KristenDunbar10 I still have a set of encyclopedias. :-)

@alejandroeight Q3: HIC and HIT is essential if we want to provide our students with rigorous learning opportunities and relatable experiences that help them carry knowledge and understanding with them for a lifetime. #galaxyleadspbl

[Dr. Kelli Edgell @DrKelliEdgell]

@alejandroeight A2: PBL allows for more student problem solving and inquiry without the stringent teachers provided steps/directions of projects. #galaxyleadspbl

[Dr. Kelli Edgell @DrKelliEdgell]

@alejandroeight The charts that indicate acceptable learning gains.

@alejandroeight A6-High Impact Content will give us the greatest bang for our PBL buck according to the author. It essential to student learning and the best content to present through inquiry. The content is related to the standards that require deeper understanding. #GalaxyleadsPBL

[Dr. Kelli Edgell @DrKelliEdgell]

@alejandroeight A5-The students will not know the expectations of collaboration if we do not teach them. This should be practiced and modeled not just at the beginning of the school year, but throughout the year. It may also need to change depending on the activity. #GalaxyleadsPBL

[Dr. Kelli Edgell @DrKelliEdgell]

@alejandroeight A4-Physically: The author suggested to allow the students to arrange the classroom (through research) to organize their space to make it best suited for collaborative inquiry. #GalaxyleadsPBL

[Dr. Kelli Edgell @DrKelliEdgell]

@alejandroeight @KristenDunbar10 First, teachers need to know that when we walk into their classrooms, a little "educational chaos" is a good thing. In other words, student are working in collaborative groups problem-solving. Some teachers are afraid to stray from the quiet, controlled classroom #GalaxyleadsPBL

[Dr. Kelli Edgell @DrKelliEdgell]

@alejandroeight A3-By building relationships with our students, we are creating an environment where they will feel more comfortable taking risks educational risks. #GalaxyleadsPBL

[Dr. Kelli Edgell @DrKelliEdgell]

@alejandroeight @KristenDunbar10 Most standards lend themselves to inquiry. If we look at the verbs in the standards, we will see that inquiry is the best tool to use to cover the standard for deeper understanding.

@KristenDunbar10 @alejandroeight I attended a Montessori school as a preschool/kindergarten child. I still remember the inquiry opportunities there. It is my wish for all students to have opportunities such as that. #GalaxyleadsPBL

[Dr. Kelli Edgell @DrKelliEdgell]

@alejandroeight A2-The traditional structure does not allow for independent thinking and problem-solving. Students don't have the opportunity to trouble-shoot.

@alejandroeight I would be a cow because they are my favorite. That's the only reason. #GalaxyleadsPBL

@MsElliottiteach This made me think of the statement in Chapter 1, "review student work as quickly and efficiently as possible." That will help us get our students who need more time to get to their destination get there a little more quickly through appropriate remediation.

@MsElliottiteach I like the statement, "if the data report is not intuitive, then it's not informative."
