A6: A FRL will learn to think for themselves and accept challenges. Blended learning gives these students the ability to do that! #fisdchat

[Kristen McDonald @TxMSU15]

A5: I need help with finding ideas for stations. I often find myself reverting to "old" ways of doing things and not using technology as my go-to. #fisdchat

[Kristen McDonald @TxMSU15]

A4: just like for the students, it gives us more freedom to spend time with those students needing more individualized instruction while those Ss that don't stay engaged. #fisdchat

[Kristen McDonald @TxMSU15]

A3: I love that they have choices. Ss need more support and can get that while others have more freedom and independence to move at their own pace. #fisdchat

[Kristen McDonald @TxMSU15]

A2: I have tried stations with my students, but given the number of students in my resource classroom it has been difficult to have the students be engaged on their own while I am giving direct instruction to a group. #fisdchat

[Kristen McDonald @TxMSU15]

A1: Blended learning is using on-line technology both at home and school as well as direct instruction in the classroom. #fisdchat

@MrsHock303 That would be wonderful!! Thank you!

A6: I plan to start by offering a choice board that allows Ss to choose a what they want to learn and create a product to show. #FISDchat

[Kristen McDonald @TxMSU15]

A5: Ss become accountable, responsible and set higher goals for themselves. They are more involved and engaged. #FISDchat

[Kristen McDonald @TxMSU15]

A4: I would use rubrics, technology and incorporate the ideas of my Ss. They have more and usually better ideas than I do. #fisdchat

[Kristen McDonald @TxMSU15]

A3: Student Centered Assessments give students a choice of how they want to show what they have learned. #fisdchat

[Kristen McDonald @TxMSU15]

A2: For me it would be managing the learning-I would be afraid that all the Ss would not be learning what is expected/needed. #fisdchat

[Kristen McDonald @TxMSU15]

A1: A student centered classroom is filled w/excitement, wonder, questions, conversation & hands on activities & is inviting. #fisdchat

A6: I plan on giving my Ss the freedom to choose an independent project, create a timeline & present it the way they best see fit. #fisdchat

[Kristen McDonald @TxMSU15]

A5: The structure would be more Ss centered giving them opportunities to move around & collaborate with others 1:1. #FutureReady #fisdchat

[Kristen McDonald @TxMSU15]

A4: Ss need to be able to think for themselves, be able to problem solve & be able to work both collaboratively & cooperatively!! #fisdchat

[Kristen McDonald @TxMSU15]

A3: A blog... somewhere that the students can post their ideas, share and learn from others. #fisdchat

[Kristen McDonald @TxMSU15]

A2: Student-centered learning would provide Ss opportunities to pursue what interests them conducive to their learning style #fisdchat
