@ed_urias @MccormackKenya Second chances are so important for students because the best way you can learn is from your mistakes. Students may look at mistakes as failure but I see a great opportunity to learn. #MackPack

[Courtney Pearson @TeachingPearson]

@ed_urias @MccormackKenya I like that you bring up expectations, I think you are right that you can present a test in a different way to fit a student's needs but still hold them to high expectations. Differentiate does not mean dumbing the content down. #MackPack

[Courtney Pearson @TeachingPearson]

@ed_urias @MccormackKenya I love that you mention student - teacher relationship. I feel a lot of teachers keep students at a distance but building a relationship with them is key to their success in your class. #MackPack

@ed_urias @MccormackKenya I like this idea, also from our text if gave and idea to let students take their wrong answer and having them write a question that would make their wrong answer right. I like this idea because it adds to their knowledge in a new way and develops problem solving skills. #MackPack

[Courtney Pearson @TeachingPearson]

@ed_urias @MccormackKenya Oh I like the idea of using graphs. Showing students hard data on their progress is so important to their success. #MackPack

[Courtney Pearson @TeachingPearson]

@MccormackKenya Teacher precipitation of students (how you treat a high student compared to a low student) #checkyoself Make engaging lessons #makeitfun Use data #keeptrack Differentiate #nomorecookiecutterlessons Assessment driven class #makethetestcount #MackPack

@MccormackKenya Clarifying success criteria(student friendly expectation), Question/Discussion(using this to asses students), Forward thinking feed back(using mistakes to better the future), Checking student responsibility, and Peer assessment. #MackPack #CSUBTED #EDSE5100

@MccormackKenya Assessment are tools to measure students learning progress. They help both the student and teacher see where improvement needs to be made and what successes have been achieved. Classrooms where you are differentiating a test is to better reflect the students skill level.#MackPack

[Courtney Pearson @TeachingPearson]

@MccormackKenya My formative assessments in my signature assignment would be the time in the unit to apply error analysis. My feedback for student's quizzes could give them tips on how to improve next time. Along with having students take their wrong answer and examine it deeper #MackPack

[Courtney Pearson @TeachingPearson]

@MccormackKenya Journaling (being able to reflect through the process), Portfolios (seeing their progress through out the year), and Pre-testing ( seeing what they know before hand and after the learning process). #MackPack #CSUBTED #EDSE5100

[Courtney Pearson @TeachingPearson]

@AdrienneNHarris @MccormackKenya I agree. We have to give our students confidence in their ability to improve for them to succeed. #CSUBTED

[Courtney Pearson @TeachingPearson]

@ed_urias @MccormackKenya I agree. I love giving the students the "Why" rational because there is no reason to hide the learning process from students #CSUBTED

[Courtney Pearson @TeachingPearson]

@educator_dorsy @MccormackKenya I like how you stated they have to own the knowledge. Unless a student can do something without you they haven't really learned it. #CSUBTED

[Courtney Pearson @TeachingPearson]

@mrioux214 @MccormackKenya I like the idea of teaching the same skills across curriculum. Not so much content I think that should vary from teacher to teacher#CSUBTED

[Courtney Pearson @TeachingPearson]

@janet_manuel12 @MccormackKenya CfU are those small checks we do through out the day. Like when we have class discussions or warm ups/wrap ups. #CSUBTED #EDSE5500

[Courtney Pearson @TeachingPearson]

@MccormackKenya A5: FA are done usually weekly, where checking for understanding happens daily. I struggle most with CFA. #CSUBTED #EDSE5500

[Courtney Pearson @TeachingPearson]

@MccormackKenya A5: Could a CFA be done by teachers sharing a rubric rather then a test to assess students skills ? #CSUBTED #EDSE5500

[Courtney Pearson @TeachingPearson]

@MccormackKenya A4: When a teacher is positive and reassures students that can do better, they often times do, do better. #CSUBTED #EDSE5500

[Courtney Pearson @TeachingPearson]

@MccormackKenya A3:Positive: Teachers can help one another reach learning goals and get data Negative: You lose creativity/individuality #CSUBTED #EDSE5500
