Rich, rigorous tasks allow students an opportunity to struggle, to figure out what they need to learn, and when they are ready to move forward. This allows assessment-capable visible learners to recognize their own learning. #ImpactLearningKS
Feedback has been described as the underutilized instructional approach teachers have at their disposal. The impact feedback has on assessment capable visible learners is 0.73 growth! Utilize it. #ImpactLearningKS
Feedback with our students needs to be specific and actionable. Students need to have the opportunities to work on and improve based on the feedback and to see the difference between where they were and where they are going. #ImpactLearningKS
@ConnieK37712332 Connie I totally agree with this! When our students have that understanding as to why it is that they are learning something they will be more engaged and apt to produce meaningful material as you mentioned!
@ChaneyFreeman1 I feel like providing our students will multiple tools for their education is going to set them up for success! It is allowing them to make the decision as to which ones will work for them in that moment of their learning!
When our students learn to take on more responsibility for their learning we need to equip our students with the proper tools to be successful. This allows them to use the tool that works best for them. #impactlearningks
"Our hopes are not that we create adult-dependent learners, but rather independent learners who continue to seek out information, generate ideas, and influence the world around them." Such a strong statement that we as educators can stand on!#impactlearningks
@HainkeSamantha Samantha I also thought that the reading for this week was helpful in providing me with ways to become a better assessment capable teacher! The Goldilocks challenge has an effect of .72! Craziness!
One thing that I thought was impactful from this week's module would be the importance of student expectations of their own learning! When teachers and staff are on board with helping our students become visible learners it has an effect size of 1.44! #ImpactLearningKS
