@TheEdsaneT I'm all about revision, esp. when Ss do poorly. Even then, they want to know how many points. Some reference Ps....#LearnLAP

PegGrafwallner Jul 25 @ 8:08 PM EDT

A1 We must show them value of the process, not necessary the product. We change "grade" to "goals." Ss will work 4 goal #LearnLAP

nyrangerfan42 Jul 25 @ 8:08 PM EDT

a1: build a culture focused on growth of knowledge. Ss need to see their growth over time - an expert needs to learn too! #LearnLAP

A1: empower them to become independent learners and thinkers #learnlap

cheri1218 Jul 25 @ 8:08 PM EDT

#learnlap A1, My worry is more about convincing the parents. I think students will be on board.

MacGovernM Jul 25 @ 8:08 PM EDT

A1: the key for S's growth is lessons that encourage, empower, entertain, interest is key! #LearnLAP

kerryensberg Jul 25 @ 8:08 PM EDT

A1. Helpful for Ss to understand mastery and to set mini-goals (lrng targets) to achieve mastery; create for authentic audiences #LearnLAP

nyrangerfan42 Jul 25 @ 8:08 PM EDT

@iCoachEdTech great in theory, but many Ts don't have this as an option, so what then? #LearnLAP

KatieJMcNamara Jul 25 @ 8:08 PM EDT

A1 Promise Ss they will pass if they complete all tasks...not for compliance, but because tasks focus on learning. Shift the focus #LearnLAP

Kuglmee Jul 25 @ 8:08 PM EDT

A1: hard one but I think projects and discussions with opportunities to demonstrate learning combat that a bit #LearnLAP

PegGrafwallner Jul 25 @ 8:08 PM EDT
