A1- That Ss aren't being honest w/ themselves or me, worried about how other Ss see them. #ditchbook

@MsVenturino Hey Mari! A real #ditchbook #eduroadtrip connection!

JoyZanger Mar 3 @ 10:06 PM EST

A1-Ts may b reluctant to giving up control. Also Ts may worry about authentic evaluations #ditchbook

Elizabeth_Bitt Mar 3 @ 10:07 PM EST

Ts may hesitate to have Ss self-assess because students may not always be honest because they want a good grade. #ditchbook

AJBianco Mar 3 @ 10:07 PM EST

A1: Ts fear honesty of Sts and they fear a lack of control! Giving too much power to sts could be harmful to the environment. #ditchbook

WonderToWisdom Mar 3 @ 10:07 PM EST

A1 - Time. One more thing to fit in. #ditchbook

MsVenturino Mar 3 @ 10:07 PM EST

A1: Ss need to know how to accurately rate themselves, and need lots of practice. I need to model the process for them. #ditchbook

jmattmiller - Moderator Mar 3 @ 10:07 PM EST

@menxueiro Awesome! #ditchbook

emosier3 Mar 3 @ 10:07 PM EST

A1: Fear of self-assessing correctly. Ss may not know exactly what to look for when they self-assess. #ditchbook

TTmomTT - Moderator Mar 3 @ 10:07 PM EST

A1: Some may feel Ss won't assess themselves at the appropriate level. Many times they are harder on themselves. #ditchbook

WonderToWisdom Mar 3 @ 10:07 PM EST

A1 - Time. One more thing to fit in. #ditchbook

LisaGuardino Mar 3 @ 10:07 PM EST

A1: The accuracy of the assessment, the time, the training involved #ditchbook

LachapelleB Mar 3 @ 10:08 PM EST

A1 - Students have a hard time self assessing. Can be a challenge to get started. Some Ts might hesitate because of that. #ditchbook

BrianJurinek Mar 3 @ 10:08 PM EST

A1: I agree that many fear if the Ss are assessing correctly, but many Ts feel like it's their role to assess Ss #ditchbook

Robinson_RME Mar 3 @ 10:08 PM EST

A1 Teacher control, we all have it!! And Ss admitting to their work being not the top notch... #ditchbook

MsVenturino Mar 3 @ 10:08 PM EST

@WonderToWisdom I agree. I’ve started to use it, and it’s so useful for Ss. I have them self-asses, peer-asses, fix, then submit #ditchbook

RESP3CTtheGAME Mar 3 @ 10:08 PM EST

@TTmomTT Great convo starter when Ss are harder on themselves than the teacher is #ditchbook

Ajarn_Adam Mar 3 @ 10:08 PM EST

A1 May get pushback from Ps / admins, if they see self-assessment as Ts abdicating responsibility #DitchBook

lesliewind1 Mar 3 @ 10:08 PM EST

A1 students not being authentic in their self assessment, "my work is an A of course" #ditchbook

@SEANJFAHEY @JBucci19 Me too. What better way to start your edu-career, right? #ditchbook

sandyrotto Mar 3 @ 10:08 PM EST

@MsScott3grade Yes, the peer approval need is high. So hard to be their real selves. We need to make a safe place. #ditchbook

mrterborg Mar 3 @ 10:08 PM EST

@MsScott3grade Start with trust, build a safe community. Set high standards. Students will come together. Will take time. #ditchbook

Chucktaft Mar 3 @ 10:08 PM EST

A1 #ditchbook one challenge - Ss that are too self critical or too lackadaisical in their assessment - many find objectivity to be difficult

JBucci19 Mar 3 @ 10:08 PM EST

Ss may not be getting the info they need to know or may only test themselves on what they know to get a good grade. #ditchbook

Hey, I'm Mary! I teach English 10&12 t Mountain House HS in CA. 1st yr teacher interested in blended learning & gamification #ditchbook

rachelmarker Mar 3 @ 10:09 PM EST

A1: Loss of instruc minutes, unsure how, what Qs to ask, giving over "control" #ditchbook

RemScience Mar 3 @ 10:09 PM EST

A1: Ss giving themselves too little credit. Some may go other direction but too little hard on selves more likely. #DitchBook

jmattmiller - Moderator Mar 3 @ 10:09 PM EST

@AJBianco You're right, AJ. Sometimes we fear what students will say if honest. #ditchbook

SEANJFAHEY Mar 3 @ 10:09 PM EST

A1 for me it's teaching the Ss the process and self awareness that is needed. Very difficult for some younger Ss #ditchbook

Chucktaft Mar 3 @ 10:09 PM EST

@RESP3CTtheGAME @TTmomTT agreed ... unless it persists throughout the year #ditchbook

AJBianco Mar 3 @ 10:09 PM EST

@jmattmiller We need that feedback though... How else do WE learn what works vs what doesn't work for our sts and their passions? #ditchbook

MistyMitchellm Mar 3 @ 10:09 PM EST

A1: sometimes Ss don't understand how/what to asses. #ditchbook

kaleistern Mar 3 @ 10:10 PM EST

A1 I fear Ss won't take self assessment seriously. But that hasn't been the case for a majority of Ss whenever they do! #ditchbook

MsVenturino Mar 3 @ 10:10 PM EST

@BrianJurinek May be my role, but I’m not teaching my Ss anything if I do for them. I’m having a hard time with implementation #ditchbook

@menxueiro Fear. Cheating not so much. We've all experienced those difficult open book exams . #ditchbook

jmattmiller - Moderator Mar 3 @ 10:10 PM EST

A1: even if we see value in self assessment, I think we may fear doing it wrong. Fear of failure/wasted time/looking foolish. #ditchbook

TTmomTT - Moderator Mar 3 @ 10:10 PM EST

@Chucktaft @RESP3CTtheGAME Ss need to be guided through the process. Show them how and set the goal as improvement. #ditchbook

rachelmarker Mar 3 @ 10:10 PM EST

@Elizabeth_Bitt True. Good opportunity for Ts to help Ss learn how to reflect. #ditchbook

Ajarn_Adam Mar 3 @ 10:10 PM EST

@WonderToWisdom Yes, I think this is a concern #DitchBook

mrterborg Mar 3 @ 10:10 PM EST

@AJBianco Who's environment? The Ts or the Ss? Authentic learning and S focusing Q&As rock. #ditchbook

BrianJurinek Mar 3 @ 10:10 PM EST

If students are taught how to self assess and provide feedback to their peers, it can empower them in the learning process #ditchbook

RESP3CTtheGAME Mar 3 @ 10:10 PM EST

Very true. Hopefully, we can shift the focus to learning. #ditchbook https://t.co/91oZc0nMBJ

Ss may not be getting the info they need to know or may only test themselves on what they know to get a good grade. #ditchbook

@mrterborg Yes... I have the picture of "What success Looks Like" on my wall so they see that it's not easy. #ditchbook

TTmomTT - Moderator Mar 3 @ 10:14 PM EST

A2: To be learners, Ss must be able to self-assess. You can't learn if you don't know what you still need to learn. #ditchbook

LachapelleB Mar 3 @ 10:14 PM EST

A2 - I believe in the power of reflection. Self-assessment gets them thinking and reflecting. Helps them understand themselves.#ditchbook

Chucktaft Mar 3 @ 10:14 PM EST

A2 #ditchbook metacognition, maturity, focus on learning and growth instead of the letter - exactly what I love about learning

AnnaHarrisR Mar 3 @ 10:14 PM EST

A1. Fear that Ss rely too much on praise from Ts and would be uncomfortable w self assessment. Good to get Ss out of comfort zone #ditchbook

A1 #ditchbook one challenge - Ss that are too self critical or too lackadaisical in their assessment - many find objectivity to be difficult

MsScott3grade Mar 3 @ 10:14 PM EST

A2- Ss need to know where they are and how to recognize that! Learning isn't just about school facts, it's emotional growth too! #ditchbook

Elizabeth_Bitt Mar 3 @ 10:14 PM EST

Ss may not be getting the info they need to know or may only test themselves on what they know to get a good grade. #ditchbook

@jmattmiller You can meet standards and still allow for creativity, individuality, and thought. #ditchbook

sandyrotto Mar 3 @ 10:26 PM EST

Q4 is for sharing tech/no-tech resources for stu self-assessment. #ditchbook @jmattmiller @RESP3CTtheGAME #sblchat https://t.co/fES2T8w9ly

MsVenturino Mar 3 @ 10:26 PM EST

@rachelmarker I always save sample interactive notebooks, but they hide in the cabinets after the initial set-up day #ditchbook

mrterborg Mar 3 @ 10:26 PM EST

@ohsoearly Maybe let them show & tell you how they can meet the standards? #ditchbook

jmattmiller - Moderator Mar 3 @ 10:26 PM EST

Right! #DitchBook https://t.co/iRRLa5oHW7

sandyrotto Mar 3 @ 10:24 PM EST

@tammy_embry And not just posting the I Cans, but samples of proficiency. Use them as proficiency "mentor texts" Many need that. #ditchbook

SEANJFAHEY Mar 3 @ 10:26 PM EST

@ohsoearly @JoyZanger exactly I put our "learning targets" (standards) up in the board for the week/unit and refer to them often #ditchbook

dr_riina Mar 3 @ 10:26 PM EST

I've found that when students "borrow" from examples, its bc that is where they are in their learning. #ditchbook https://t.co/VhL3hMEIGI

AJBianco Mar 3 @ 10:22 PM EST
This is great. model student work vs teacher work to show expectations and achievements of our students. #ditchbook https://t.co/e0QhLN7f5k

  A3 #ditchbook tough - trying to strike balance b/w offering models and not giving a cookie cutter - want Ss to create, display on their own

MsVenturino Mar 3 @ 10:26 PM EST

@LachapelleB Have you ever done a socratic seminar in science? #ditchbook

sandyrotto Mar 3 @ 10:26 PM EST

@Chucktaft I agree. I like to show multiple examples of profienccy. Esp in writing, when Ss think more words=better. Ugh. #ditchbook

rachelmarker Mar 3 @ 10:26 PM EST

@BrianJurinek If you're a #GAFE district, it's so easy to get their great ideas w a google form! Reinforces idea of reflxn too. #ditchbook

AlisonFeddes Mar 3 @ 10:26 PM EST

#ditchbook A3 We currently used rubrics and anchor charts built from ss that are for everyday regarding effort/active learning.

golliharsclass Mar 3 @ 10:26 PM EST

#ditchbook A3: rubrics are a helpful tool in showing Ss what proficient looks like, as well as exceeds. Allows for self-reflection too.

JoyZanger Mar 3 @ 10:26 PM EST

A4-One of my fav. resources for making rubrics is themespark! So easy! #ditchbook

MsScott3grade Mar 3 @ 10:26 PM EST

@MsVenturino @LachapelleB I've been thinking about doing one in math! #ditchbook

AJBianco Mar 3 @ 10:26 PM EST

A4: Again... it comes down to modeling. Show them an example and what it should look like, but let them add their personality. #ditchbook

RESP3CTtheGAME Mar 3 @ 10:26 PM EST

@TTmomTT @jmattmiller Exactly! What can you create to show evidence of your learning. Something original & enduring #ditchbook

LisaGuardino Mar 3 @ 10:26 PM EST

A3: Strong rubrics, strong models, putting Ss in evaluators role, academic/consistent lang, mulitmedia presos, 1:1 conf #ditchbook

LachapelleB Mar 3 @ 10:27 PM EST

@MsVenturino For many, yes!Others learned they needed to put in more work.But it allowed SS to figure that out w/o failing a test.#ditchbook

NerDyFountain Mar 3 @ 10:27 PM EST

#ditchbook this is my first chat...@kristinkdj you should join!

rachelmarker Mar 3 @ 10:27 PM EST

@MsVenturino OMG, totally. I've done the very same thing. For me, it helps to make a habit of Ss sharing their work w peers. #ditchbook

Elizabeth_Bitt Mar 3 @ 10:27 PM EST

A4: There are many online rubric websites such as rubistar, that have premade rubrics students can look at. #ditchbook

LachapelleB Mar 3 @ 10:27 PM EST

@MsVenturino No, not yet. Like the idea though. #ditchbook

MsVenturino Mar 3 @ 10:27 PM EST

A4: Use @explainevrythng for Ss to explain what they know, then listen back. On paper: 1 color for self, 1 color peer, 1 color T #ditchbook

dr_riina Mar 3 @ 10:27 PM EST

Love using strong examples w/specific weaknesses so students can assess& see common errors etc. #ditchbook https://t.co/rsArv1Afkq

MistyMitchellm Mar 3 @ 10:22 PM EST

A3: I like examples & non-examples, but with VARIETY! Discuss why smthing is a non-example. #ditchbook

AJBianco Mar 3 @ 10:27 PM EST

@dr_riina While it should never be the end result, its a good jumping off point for sts. Let them see it and fix/edit/add to it. #ditchbook

mrterborg Mar 3 @ 10:27 PM EST

@HeidiJohnson06 Can't help much but Ts need to collaborate more. Someone has a good exemplar. Find it, tweak it, then create own #ditchbook

MsVenturino Mar 3 @ 10:27 PM EST

@MsScott3grade @LachapelleB Do it! I love them! #ditchbook

WonderToWisdom Mar 3 @ 10:28 PM EST

A4: Each S has a Ggl Doc share w/ me w/ unit goals. Continually self-assess and update. #ditchbook

golliharsclass Mar 3 @ 10:28 PM EST

#ditchbook a3: peer conferences and student teacher conferences are good ways to discuss ways to become proficient and adjustments needed.

SEANJFAHEY Mar 3 @ 10:28 PM EST

I was also going to say have the students discuss & figure out what would qualify as poor or good work #ditchbook https://t.co/xdjwHCPqp9

RESP3CTtheGAME Mar 3 @ 10:24 PM EST

A3 Have Ss create the rubric or assessment tool. Hold a contest for most creative descriptions https://t.co/FOuG4uin2n #ditchbook

sandyrotto Mar 3 @ 10:28 PM EST

@jmattmiller @MaryLindseyELA Yes,it's been my biggest a-ha on my journey. I realized I expected them to just know. They didn't. #ditchbook

jmattmiller - Moderator Mar 3 @ 10:28 PM EST

A4: Swivl has this interesting new video self-assess app called Recap: https://t.co/FdQLfflBVS #DitchBook

MsVenturino Mar 3 @ 10:28 PM EST

Need to develop this habit. Who wants to keep me accountable? #ditchbook https://t.co/3TxwTjEUNV

rachelmarker Mar 3 @ 10:27 PM EST

@MsVenturino OMG, totally. I've done the very same thing. For me, it helps to make a habit of Ss sharing their work w peers. #ditchbook

BrianJurinek Mar 3 @ 10:28 PM EST

@rachelmarker Lucky to be in a #GAFE district! Google Forms are great for feedback, formative assessment, and engaging Ss! #ditchbook

mrterborg Mar 3 @ 10:28 PM EST

@menxueiro This is essential! #ditchbook

rachelmarker Mar 3 @ 10:28 PM EST

@BrianJurinek Yes. And allow Ss time to explore what makes the exemplars exemplary. Analyze the work. #ditchbook

TTmomTT - Moderator Mar 3 @ 10:28 PM EST

A4: I have a color coded stds Gsheet and students reflect after each assmt. Also allow demo of knowledge outside of paper assmt. #ditchbook

dr_riina Mar 3 @ 10:28 PM EST

I've been learning to use single category rubrics. It is really focused. #ditchbook https://t.co/KBicAnjOBH

MaryLindseyELA Mar 3 @ 10:22 PM EST

A3: RUBRICS. This is a big focus at my school. Teach each category and discuss what it looks like. #ditchbook

MsVenturino Mar 3 @ 10:28 PM EST

@LachapelleB I did one yesterday with 7th grade sci. Also last week with 7th AVID. They rock #ditchbook

RESP3CTtheGAME Mar 3 @ 10:28 PM EST

A3 For those with rubrics already created, have Ss complete their own & then compare to T's eval. Rich convos follow #ditchbook

MistyMitchellm Mar 3 @ 10:29 PM EST

A4: Journaling/blogging smthing as simple as "what I learned today" can lead to great self reflection if used consistently. #ditchbook

kristijacobs16 Mar 3 @ 10:29 PM EST

However, Ss need to understand the rubrics and the models. They can't just be "handed out." #ditchbook https://t.co/u0jCrg3PqW

Elizabeth_Bitt Mar 3 @ 10:27 PM EST

A4: There are many online rubric websites such as rubistar, that have premade rubrics students can look at. #ditchbook

zonie71 Mar 3 @ 10:29 PM EST

A4: Rubistar... I start the Rubric and the Ss help define it. #ditchbook

mrterborg Mar 3 @ 10:29 PM EST

@NerDyFountain @kristinkdj Mine too. #ditchbook

Ajarn_Adam Mar 3 @ 10:29 PM EST

@dr_riina I like this idea! #DitchBook

rachelmarker Mar 3 @ 10:29 PM EST

@MsVenturino I know, right? Partner up w a colleague for check-ins?! (Among the many other things...) #ditchbook

LachapelleB Mar 3 @ 10:29 PM EST

#ditchbook https://t.co/yeEgnR31SQ

LachapelleB Mar 3 @ 10:29 PM EST

A4 - We have been working on blogs for students to reflect. Got the idea from @PaulSolarz

SEANJFAHEY Mar 3 @ 10:29 PM EST

@rachelmarker @MsVenturino I'll show exemplars & Ss don't understand and get even more confused! #ditchbook

JoyZanger Mar 3 @ 10:29 PM EST

I use CC "I CAN" statements that I put up throughout the year. Displaying ones we are curr. working on. #ditchbook https://t.co/DCwfDyzm26

SEANJFAHEY Mar 3 @ 10:26 PM EST

@ohsoearly @JoyZanger exactly I put our "learning targets" (standards) up in the board for the week/unit and refer to them often #ditchbook

jmattmiller - Moderator Mar 3 @ 10:29 PM EST

Yes! And these are the practices that can follow Ss to adulthood for lifelong learners. #DitchBook https://t.co/7bxjGJg0rC

A4: Journaling/blogging smthing as simple as "what I learned today" can lead to great self reflection if used consistently. #ditchbook

golliharsclass Mar 3 @ 10:29 PM EST

#ditchbook a4: Rubrics, student samples, models to name a few. If Ss see what TO do and what NOT to do it should help them be successful.

JBucci19 Mar 3 @ 10:29 PM EST

A4: #ditchbook In my time at school so far, I have used Google Forms, Piktochart for an Infographic, and wizer.me 2 make WS's to self-assess

MsVenturino Mar 3 @ 10:29 PM EST

.@jmattmiller I’m going to need to try this over the weekend. We have 2 @goswivl at school, and I use them weekly #ditchbook

LachapelleB Mar 3 @ 10:29 PM EST

@MsVenturino How do you set it up? #ditchbook

Elizabeth_Bitt Mar 3 @ 10:29 PM EST

@kristijacobs16 Right. I think these rubrics can be used as a model and then students can create their own. #ditchbook

sandyrotto Mar 3 @ 10:29 PM EST

@HeidiJohnson06 @mrterborg Reach out to your Twitter PLN. I agree-we need to do more of this in our profession. No closed doors. #ditchbook
