profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:04 PM EDT

Hurrah @mbutterfield, @covili , @mrlewisyoung! Thanks for joining in ... was starting to wonder if it was something I said. #utedchat

covili - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:05 PM EDT

@profbutcher @mbutterfield @mrlewisyoung Just a little divided attention, but always good to be part of #utedchat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:06 PM EDT

Ben Smith here, finally back from long term sickness / vacation... It's been a while! Missed UCET too :( #utedchat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:07 PM EDT

Sorry you missed a great #UCET16, @Chronicbeard ... but glad you are here tonight! #utedchat

covili - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:08 PM EDT

@Chronicbeard We missed you at #ucet16 Ben - gone, but not forgotten. #utedchat

lars3eb - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:08 PM EDT

Hey all, Derek, 5th grade from @washk12 chiming in to #UTedChat a little late tonight. Sorry about that @profButcher, please don't dock me.

ks_parsons Mar 30 @ 11:09 PM EDT

Kim here, South Sevier Middle School teacher & tech site specialist, going to try to multitask… homework, Jazz and #utedchat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:09 PM EDT

You arrived just in time for the first question, @lars3eb! #utedchat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:09 PM EDT

Q1: What do you see as key critical thinking skills that your students should learn? #UTEdChat

lars3eb - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:09 PM EDT

@profbutcher That's what I call perfect timing! #UTedChat

lars3eb - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:10 PM EDT

@Chronicbeard Glad you're feeling better Ben! #UTedChat

brianrozinsky Mar 30 @ 11:10 PM EDT

Joining #utedchat already in progress, I'm Brian; I teach MS s's English in CO.

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:11 PM EDT

Glad you are here, @ks_parsons! Multitasking is the new normal, right?! #utedchat

lars3eb - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:11 PM EDT

@SkylockSocial I'm *always* late no matter how many reminders I set! I need to fix that though. #UTedChat

SkylockSocial Mar 30 @ 11:12 PM EDT

Q1 Digital Citizenship, Safe Technology Use. #UTedchat

covili - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:12 PM EDT

A1 I think students need to learn how to find and interpret information. Make connections and assess data. #utedchat

FarrBfarr Mar 30 @ 11:12 PM EDT

A1- Analyzing-ability to explain their reasoning/thinking #UTedchat

mrlewisyoung Mar 30 @ 11:12 PM EDT

A1: I want Ss to be able to "debug" their work. Can they make a mistake and then learn from the experience? #utedchat

covili - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:13 PM EDT

@mrlewisyoung Love the idea of “debugging” in learning. Just trying to get the kinks out! #utedchat

mbutterfield Mar 30 @ 11:13 PM EDT

A1: Problem solving for sure -- and how to digest the information needed. #utedchat

lars3eb - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:13 PM EDT

A1 Inference, analysis, evaluation, and explanation. #UTedChat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:13 PM EDT

A1: I'm very interested in how students determine how and when they have enough evidence to make a conclusion. #utedchat

CharterTechSLC Mar 30 @ 11:13 PM EDT

#utedchat A1 Only deal with those they know on the Internet. Critical Consuming...

HCraigPritchard Mar 30 @ 11:13 PM EDT

Craig joining a bit late. Just got back to Utah from a 3-day Idaho excursion. #utedchat

FarrBfarr Mar 30 @ 11:13 PM EDT

@mrlewisyoung Growth mindset- don't have it yet- but WILL :) #UTedchat

mrlewisyoung Mar 30 @ 11:14 PM EDT

This is huge. One of the big science ILOs is to consume and create science materials. Huge. #utedchat https://t.co/2uGP1QR58p

covili - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:12 PM EDT

A1 I think students need to learn how to find and interpret information. Make connections and assess data. #utedchat

covili - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:14 PM EDT

@CharterTechSLC Like that phrase - critical consuming. Great concept. #utedchat

lars3eb - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:14 PM EDT

@SkylockSocial How could I forget my favorite #DigCit? And @AliceKeeler would be so upset I forgot Search! #UTedChat

MsMooreELP4 Mar 30 @ 11:14 PM EDT

LATE but I have a note #utedchat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:14 PM EDT

A1: Also am interested in how students determine what info they need to evaluate claims. How do they dispute junk "facts?" #utedchat

covili - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:15 PM EDT

@HCraigPritchard I thought you’d just been busy watching the NIT! #utedchat

HCraigPritchard Mar 30 @ 11:15 PM EDT

A1: problem solving, perseverance through challenging or complex issues. Can I say common sense also? ;-) #utedchat

brianrozinsky Mar 30 @ 11:15 PM EDT

A1 All my thoughts lumping under umbrella of 'accurate evaluation': credibility of research info, quality of own and others' work #utedchat

Chronicbeard Mar 30 @ 11:15 PM EDT

A1: I would say knowing how to ask a quality question. #utedchat

FarrBfarr Mar 30 @ 11:16 PM EDT

A1 #UTedchat https://t.co/gAUUjagLH2

lars3eb - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:16 PM EDT

@HCraigPritchard You should totally say Common Sense because *too many* people don't have it! #UTedChat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:16 PM EDT

.@Chronicbeard Yes! I think knowing what questions to ask in order to advance your thinking is crucial! #utedchat

ks_parsons Mar 30 @ 11:16 PM EDT

A1 - I teach Reading, so for me, inference and interpretation are extremely important skills! #utedchat

lars3eb - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:16 PM EDT

@FarrBfarr That image looks really familiar. Looks like we stumbled on the same website. #UTedChat

FarrBfarr Mar 30 @ 11:17 PM EDT

@HCraigPritchard Perseverance is HUGE! #UTedchat

brianrozinsky Mar 30 @ 11:17 PM EDT

@profbutcher Weigh sources? Counter with competing facts of varying value? #utedchat

Chronicbeard Mar 30 @ 11:17 PM EDT

A1: Also good to see if Ss can apply a process to solving a problem. Design thinking, scientific method, critical analysis. #utedchat

mbutterfield Mar 30 @ 11:17 PM EDT

A1: and communication #utedchat

FarrBfarr Mar 30 @ 11:18 PM EDT

@lars3eb Great minds... or in my case, tired minds think alike #UTedchat

mbutterfield Mar 30 @ 11:18 PM EDT

@mbutterfield Verbal and Written communication #utedchat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:18 PM EDT

Q2: What does critical thinking look & sound like in your classroom? What do you look and listen for? #UTEdChat

CharterTechSLC Mar 30 @ 11:18 PM EDT

Problem-Solving is a needed skill. I tell my techs to call the help desk or Google it, first. #utedchat https://t.co/4HhOIXzSdd

mrlewisyoung Mar 30 @ 11:12 PM EDT

A1: I want Ss to be able to "debug" their work. Can they make a mistake and then learn from the experience? #utedchat

lars3eb - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:18 PM EDT

I'm guessing @downrightdave is busy watching the @UtahJazz play right now. They're not quite done yet. #UTedChat

mrlewisyoung Mar 30 @ 11:19 PM EDT

A1: In conversations I try to have students either connect, agree, disagree, restate, or ask a question. Dialogue often follows. #utedchat

MsMooreELP4 Mar 30 @ 11:19 PM EDT

Mathematical practice #1 make sense of and persevere in problem solving #utedchat

brianrozinsky Mar 30 @ 11:19 PM EDT

@ks_parsons I 2nd that. Integral part of process is propping up analysis w/in-text specifics. Here's what I think & why. #utedchat

covili - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:19 PM EDT

@profbutcher @Chronicbeard Quality questioning is a huge factor in learning. My question - can the Jazz hold on?! #utedchat

SkylockSocial Mar 30 @ 11:19 PM EDT

@mbutterfield Right. And, ability to identify the source of info. #UTedchat

downrightdave - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:19 PM EDT

@lars3eb this game is crazy! Come on Jazz! #utedchat

lars3eb - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:19 PM EDT

A2 Critical thinking is NOT quiet. It sounds like asking questions, discussing w/ neighbors, breaking wrong assumptions. #UTedChat

yorgus Mar 30 @ 11:20 PM EDT

@SkylockSocial @mbutterfield And evaluate the source of info. #utedchat

lars3eb - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:20 PM EDT

A2 I like to see Ss working together as well as taking time to reflect on their learning. Gotta have noise & less noise. #UTedChat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:20 PM EDT

A2: I love to hear students disagree if they can back up their critique with quality evidence! #utedchat

FarrBfarr Mar 30 @ 11:21 PM EDT

@profbutcher A2- "Accountable Talk"- discussion among Ss #Utedchat https://t.co/K07C509pM1

mbutterfield Mar 30 @ 11:21 PM EDT

A2: Sounds like collaboration, and can look pretty messy or off task. Not all Ts can handle it. #utedchat

lars3eb - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:21 PM EDT

@mrlewisyoung I like to teach them Talk-Argument so they can see it's okay to disagree, but to do so respectfully. #UTedChat

Chronicbeard Mar 30 @ 11:22 PM EDT

A2: I look & listen for passionate argumentation, metacognition (time to think), discussing ideas with reasoning. #utedchat

mrlewisyoung Mar 30 @ 11:22 PM EDT

@lars3eb Do you use footage from any of the GOP debates as non-examples? #utedchat

lars3eb - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:22 PM EDT

@yorgus @SkylockSocial @mbutterfield But if it's on the Internet it's okay, right? Everything on there is legit. #UTedChat

brianrozinsky Mar 30 @ 11:22 PM EDT

@profbutcher Dialogue mixing statements & questions, especially open-ended ones. Respectful disagreement. Thoughtful justification #utedchat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:22 PM EDT

A2: Also like to hear students take time to consider others' ideas & expand on them (maybe, what if), rather than reject outright. #utedchat

DaniKSloan Mar 30 @ 11:22 PM EDT

Hello there! Dani from UEN checking in a bit late. #utedchat

ks_parsons Mar 30 @ 11:22 PM EDT

@FarrBfarr @profbutcher Love this! #utedchat

lars3eb - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:23 PM EDT

@mrlewisyoung I avoid showing them those kinds of non-examples b/c I don't want to have to require permission slips for the awful! #UTedChat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:23 PM EDT

@DaniKSloan Glad you could make it! We were sad without you! #utedchat

MsMooreELP4 Mar 30 @ 11:23 PM EDT

A2 claims must be supported not just asserted #utedchat

Chronicbeard Mar 30 @ 11:23 PM EDT

@mrlewisyoung I like the idea of making them choose a path to engage discussion. #utedchat

mbutterfield Mar 30 @ 11:23 PM EDT

Hey Dani! Congrats on the election! #utedchat #ucet16

lars3eb - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:23 PM EDT

@profbutcher I have actually awarded partial credit for test questions if the *wrong* answer was defended well enough. #UTedChat

SkylockSocial Mar 30 @ 11:24 PM EDT

@lars3eb Lack of Knowledge is No Excuse. Like Plagiarism from Cutting & Pasting. That's a NoNo. #utedchat

covili - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:24 PM EDT

A2 Love how students can get credit for their process in solving math problems. We need more of this idea everywhere else. #utedchat

FarrBfarr Mar 30 @ 11:24 PM EDT

@ks_parsons @profbutcher I've seen it be a powerful tool to guiding conversations in classrooms #UTedchat

brianrozinsky Mar 30 @ 11:24 PM EDT

@lars3eb @yorgus @SkylockSocial @mbutterfield Increasingly turns out there are varying degrees/standards of legit ;) #utedchat

ks_parsons Mar 30 @ 11:25 PM EDT

A2 - It sounds a lot like chaos for me! I struggle with it a little. Sorry to admit, but I like a quiet classroom. Middle school! #utedchat

FarrBfarr Mar 30 @ 11:25 PM EDT

@MsMooreELP4 Supporting claims is huge... citing evidence from text, etc. #UTedchat

mrlewisyoung Mar 30 @ 11:25 PM EDT

A2: I wish I had the skills of the teacher in this documentary. Watch it during your next free 40 minutes. https://t.co/KgAeCYThJk #utedchat

Chronicbeard Mar 30 @ 11:25 PM EDT

@lars3eb Reflection is key to any critical process. I forget to give Ss space and time to reflect. #utedchat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:25 PM EDT

.@covili As one who codes learning processes from verbal data, I believe in power of process but so hard to track & document! #utedchat

DaniKSloan Mar 30 @ 11:26 PM EDT

A2: Critical thinking looks different for every student & each group, but I like to look for students asking each other questions. #utedchat

brianrozinsky Mar 30 @ 11:26 PM EDT

@covili Like it! Also see oodles of room for capacity building in guiding learners to unpack their processes w/depth & clarity #utedchat

covili - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:26 PM EDT

Can’t give the same guy two shots in a row?!@ Come on Jazz - argh! I know what bad defense looks like! #utedchat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:26 PM EDT

Q3: What aspects of critical thinking do you find students struggle with most? To what extent does this vary by topic or domain? #utedchat

MsMooreELP4 Mar 30 @ 11:26 PM EDT

A2 part 2: I teach my students the 8 mathematical practices, then the scientific method, and then the mighty writing process #utedchat

ks_parsons Mar 30 @ 11:27 PM EDT

Q - Can Steph Curry be stopped? #utedchat

SkylockSocial Mar 30 @ 11:27 PM EDT

A2 Ss helping Ss, and lots of Google. #UTedchat

lars3eb - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:27 PM EDT

@mrlewisyoung Wow, I just go sucked in for a few mins. Where did you find that? #UTedChat

covili - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:28 PM EDT

A3 Two parts of critical thinking students struggle with - 1. Critical 2. Thinking. #utedchat

MsMooreELP4 Mar 30 @ 11:28 PM EDT

A2 pt. 3: then they analyze and synthesisize them and soon discover the commonalities across the disciplines for problem solving #utedchat

FarrBfarr Mar 30 @ 11:28 PM EDT

A3- Explaining their reasoning/thinking process #UTedchat

lars3eb - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:28 PM EDT

@Chronicbeard I often do to, but sometimes they remind me and then we take the time for it. Def need more reflection time! #UTedChat

CharterTechSLC Mar 30 @ 11:28 PM EDT

A2 I tend to teach the Ts & they mostly work by themselves to figure out and customize things. #utedchat

Chronicbeard Mar 30 @ 11:28 PM EDT

If only they had taken the time to think critically about it, eh? #utedchat. https://t.co/8Np2rWEU8s

covili - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:26 PM EDT

Can’t give the same guy two shots in a row?!@ Come on Jazz - argh! I know what bad defense looks like! #utedchat

DaniKSloan Mar 30 @ 11:29 PM EDT

A3: I find that students can easily get hung up on obstacles. Thinking through (and sometimes around) problems is difficult! #utedchat

FarrBfarr Mar 30 @ 11:29 PM EDT

@covili More truth than not with that comment #Utedchat

ks_parsons Mar 30 @ 11:29 PM EDT

@covili My thoughts exactly. 1. Middle 2 School #utedchat

mrlewisyoung Mar 30 @ 11:29 PM EDT

@lars3eb I saw it at a PD through BYU and the district called Associates. That teacher has some guts. #utedchat

MsMooreELP4 Mar 30 @ 11:29 PM EDT

A3 my Ss get distracted by too many "WHAT IF" variables #utedchat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:30 PM EDT

@FarrBfarr Agreed! I find students have a hard time providing the rationale for their thinking and using evidence effectively #utedchat

brianrozinsky Mar 30 @ 11:30 PM EDT

A3 That part where adult me sees value in metacognitive reflection? Teen me wasn't quite ready to consume that Kool-Aid... #utedchat

mbutterfield Mar 30 @ 11:30 PM EDT

@covili Agreed. Sad to see Ss give up so easily with a problem. #utedchat

lars3eb - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:30 PM EDT

@mrlewisyoung I'll have to go back and watch it after #UTedChat ends b/c it looks amazing!

Chronicbeard Mar 30 @ 11:30 PM EDT

A3: Ss struggle when they fear failure or being judged. Also when judged on product or outcome of thinking rather than process. #utedchat

blaireinfeldt Mar 30 @ 11:30 PM EDT

@ks_parsons Need to box out and stop Klay Thompson. Would be an interesting Q for a PBL. #utedchat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:30 PM EDT

.@DaniKSloan Yes! Also, real life inquiry means that data isn't perfect. Have to decide when that is and is not a deal breaker. #utedchat

brianrozinsky Mar 30 @ 11:31 PM EDT

A3, pt. 2 Many minds, especially school-age ones, crave certainty over uncertainty. #utedchat

FarrBfarr Mar 30 @ 11:31 PM EDT

@mbutterfield @covili If they were all like the little engine that could... I think I can, I think I can #UTedchat

covili - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:32 PM EDT

@blaireinfeldt @ks_parsons I knew the hoops mixed with PBL would bring Blair out tonight! #utedchat

mrlewisyoung Mar 30 @ 11:32 PM EDT

@lars3eb It'll change how you deal with how Ss deal with rough situations, and encourage them to defend their positions. #utedchat

yorgus Mar 30 @ 11:32 PM EDT

@brianrozinsky Many minds indeed. Certainly not limited to middle school kids. #utedchat

mbutterfield Mar 30 @ 11:32 PM EDT

@FarrBfarr AND if there was enough time in the day to let Ss struggle through... #utedchat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:33 PM EDT

.@Chronicbeard I think years of canned science get in the way. Students think need to guess "secret" answer, not reason on own #utedchat

mrlewisyoung Mar 30 @ 11:34 PM EDT

A3: My Ss come in struggling to ask good questions. #utedchat

lars3eb - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:34 PM EDT

I know a number of adults who also struggle with those same 2 parts of Critical Thinking! #UTedChat https://t.co/hZ0KF2rIpi

covili - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:28 PM EDT

A3 Two parts of critical thinking students struggle with - 1. Critical 2. Thinking. #utedchat

tbarnlrn Mar 30 @ 11:35 PM EDT

@mbutterfield @FarrBfarr I stuggle giving Ss time to struggle as much as they need. I let myself feel the pressure of time. #utedchat

lars3eb - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:35 PM EDT

@mbutterfield @covili That's why it's so important to help them develop a #GrowthMindset so they can learn to persevere! #UTedChat

covili - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:35 PM EDT

I think one reason some students struggle with critical thinking is we don’t ask them to do it often. #utedchat

MsMooreELP4 Mar 30 @ 11:36 PM EDT

I like to give the answer and let them figure out the question. This provides for development of process #utedchat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:36 PM EDT

@mrlewisyoung I created an assessment on what questions good 4 critical thinking. Ss bombing it -- need to figure out new lesson #utedchat

FarrBfarr Mar 30 @ 11:36 PM EDT

@tbarnlrn @mbutterfield Anyone have any secrets when dealing with the "time" issue? What is the resolution? #UTedchat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:36 PM EDT

Q4: What current tools/activities do you use for teaching critical thinking skills? What tips do you have for using them? #utedchat

DaniKSloan Mar 30 @ 11:37 PM EDT

@covili True! We can be too focused on rushing to what's next and fitting everything in. We give out answers and move on. #utedchat

FarrBfarr Mar 30 @ 11:37 PM EDT

@covili We could probably all improve with asking various levels of DOK questions #UTedchat

Chronicbeard Mar 30 @ 11:37 PM EDT

@profbutcher I tried working more on writing hypotheses for future research and Ss seem to really like that. #utedchat

mbutterfield Mar 30 @ 11:37 PM EDT

@FarrBfarr @tbarnlrn Less mandated testing #utedchat

brianrozinsky Mar 30 @ 11:37 PM EDT

@covili Diff't pitfall for me: I ask them to do it, but don't always prepare them for how to do it well. Stepping stones needed! #utedchat

JimSarto Mar 30 @ 11:38 PM EDT

#UTedchat It's all about quality, not quantity

covili - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:38 PM EDT

@brianrozinsky Really good point Brian - good intentions need proper preparation. #utedchat

mrlewisyoung Mar 30 @ 11:38 PM EDT

A4: I believe an inquiry approach can push Ss towards critical thinking, but one experience is not enough. Needs to be whole year. #utedchat

JimSarto Mar 30 @ 11:38 PM EDT

#UTedchat A4: Flipped classroom

SkylockSocial Mar 30 @ 11:38 PM EDT

A4: Stressing the importance of providing a resource, link or reference to support an assumption. #UTedchat

ks_parsons Mar 30 @ 11:39 PM EDT

@blaireinfeldt @covili I actually love my 7th graders, they are just different beasts is all :) 6th? "Calgon take me away!” #utedchat

lars3eb - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:39 PM EDT

@mrlewisyoung Or even asking ANY questions sometimes! I love this poster for that very reason! #UTedChat https://t.co/XgyoSMZXI6

MsMooreELP4 Mar 30 @ 11:39 PM EDT

A4 Socratic circles, shared inquiry, CCE Calculation, computation, explanation, debate #utedchat

FarrBfarr Mar 30 @ 11:39 PM EDT

A4 #UTedchat https://t.co/j9fHChB98t

CharterTechSLC Mar 30 @ 11:40 PM EDT

A4: SNOPES ;-) No, I just provide basics in safe tech use to the Ts, who pass it along to the Ss. #utedchat

lars3eb - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:40 PM EDT

@tbarnlrn @mbutterfield @FarrBfarr I hate that I often have to cut off their "struggle time" as well. #UTedChat

Chronicbeard Mar 30 @ 11:40 PM EDT

@profbutcher @mrlewisyoung would love to see the lesson. Why do they "bomb" it? #utedchat

mbutterfield Mar 30 @ 11:40 PM EDT

A4: I heard a great idea at #UCET16. Ss use Google Form question types to write different questions for peers on a concept. #utedchat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:40 PM EDT

.@mrlewisyoung Absolutely! Authentic inquiry= real experience in critical thinking. But takes time to learn & patience w/ failure. #utedchat

mrlewisyoung Mar 30 @ 11:40 PM EDT

@Chronicbeard @profbutcher Wondering the same thing. #utedchat

brianrozinsky Mar 30 @ 11:40 PM EDT

@FarrBfarr @tbarnlrn @mbutterfield Select the proverbial golf balls... i.e. Prioritize what matters. https://t.co/mZxTk4OWg4 #utedchat

FarrBfarr Mar 30 @ 11:40 PM EDT

@mbutterfield @tbarnlrn That would be nice, but don't know if it's going away anytime soon #UTedchat

mrlewisyoung Mar 30 @ 11:41 PM EDT

@profbutcher Takes time to learn & patience w/ failure on both sides; Ss and Ts. #utedchat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:41 PM EDT

@Chronicbeard @mrlewisyoung Why indeed? Currently set of inquiry-based investigations. But students having tough time w/ transfer #Utedchat

BaggaleyMr Mar 30 @ 11:42 PM EDT

I love this resource https://t.co/Ze6HGbWqFX it's a hybrid of DOK and blooms #utedchat

FarrBfarr Mar 30 @ 11:42 PM EDT

@brianrozinsky @tbarnlrn @mbutterfield Good point-making sure essential standards are identified/intervened for #UTedchat

tbarnlrn Mar 30 @ 11:42 PM EDT

@FarrBfarr Prof exp. helps. In the long run, shoving info down Ss throats less efficient than giving time. Take the long view. #utedchat

mrlewisyoung Mar 30 @ 11:42 PM EDT

@profbutcher @Chronicbeard Sounds like a fun project. #utedchat

lars3eb - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:42 PM EDT

@FarrBfarr @tbarnlrn Less mandated testing #utedchat

DaniKSloan Mar 30 @ 11:42 PM EDT

A4: Actively modeling problem solving, thinking aloud, group brainstorming, PBL, Genius Hour. #utedchat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:43 PM EDT

@mrlewisyoung Agreed! Inquiry is almost more learning from failure than success. Easy answers never make good science. #utedchat

Chronicbeard Mar 30 @ 11:44 PM EDT

A4: In CS I have collab groups work to solve problems with pseudocode - then immediately share. Passionate discussions result. #utedchat

lars3eb - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:45 PM EDT

@profbutcher @mrlewisyoung And we don't really value things that are easy & don't require effort. We need to push Ss to struggle! #UTedChat

mrlewisyoung Mar 30 @ 11:45 PM EDT

How quickly do we forget about modeling? Modeled a lesson recently; most powerful lesson in a while #utedchat https://t.co/HC8lpRBqY2

DaniKSloan Mar 30 @ 11:42 PM EDT

A4: Actively modeling problem solving, thinking aloud, group brainstorming, PBL, Genius Hour. #utedchat

brianrozinsky Mar 30 @ 11:45 PM EDT

A4 Mired in messy transfer of power -- students making more, me making less. More S choice both to show learning & to justify. #utedchat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:45 PM EDT

A4: @NHMU has series of investigations for inquiry learning w/ 3D scans of museum objects Free, online: https://t.co/Ox7vwfDHM9 #utedchat

Q5: Students often have difficulty understanding strong vs. weak evidence. How do you help students evaluate quality of evidence? #utedchat

Chronicbeard Mar 30 @ 11:47 PM EDT

@profbutcher @NHMU isn't one of the @IDETProgram groups doing that this year? #utedchat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:48 PM EDT

@Chronicbeard @NHMU One @IDETProgram group doing modules that to teach true inquiry lessons in general. Research quests separate #utedchat

BaggaleyMr Mar 30 @ 11:49 PM EDT

A5 Having my students come up with the criteria of what is strong and good evidence. Makes good discussion #utedchat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:49 PM EDT

@Chronicbeard @NHMU One @IDETProgram group doing modules to teach high-qual inquiry lessons in general. Research quests separate. #utedchat

SkylockSocial Mar 30 @ 11:49 PM EDT

Q5 Ability to distinguish quality sources, i.e. primary vs. secondary, peer-reviewed articles vs wiki or blogs. #UTedchat

mrlewisyoung Mar 30 @ 11:49 PM EDT

A5: I spend so much time trying to get Ss to get evidence at all... eval it seems higher level... hadn't thought about eval... #utedchat

ddraper Mar 30 @ 11:49 PM EDT

Interesting #utedchat topic today, moderated by @profbutcher! The key to teaching critical thinking is to question more, solve less.

A5 Modeling for Ss/analyzing #UTedchat

covili - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:49 PM EDT

A5 Peer review is one strategy for evaluating argument and evidence. #utedchat

brianrozinsky Mar 30 @ 11:49 PM EDT

A5 Many modes of modeling. Highlight exemplars, but also dismantle them, making evidence weaker. Take scrawny examples, bulk em up #utedchat

mrlewisyoung Mar 30 @ 11:50 PM EDT

@ddraper @profbutcher Or is it? #utedchat

MsMooreELP4 Mar 30 @ 11:50 PM EDT

I like to play a game called Sir-tan-oogle . Must respond like SIRI or Cortana or google. #utedchat

ddraper Mar 30 @ 11:51 PM EDT

Well played. #utedchat https://t.co/GpVQGgnwMV

mrlewisyoung Mar 30 @ 11:50 PM EDT

@ddraper @profbutcher Or is it? #utedchat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:51 PM EDT

@mrlewisyoung One of my studies: w/out training, over 70% student "evaluation" of ideas lack evidence Attn to evidence good start! #utedchat

Chronicbeard Mar 30 @ 11:52 PM EDT

A5: Evaluating sources / evidence is difficult. Students don't want to struggle, they want it to work first time. #utedchat

brianrozinsky Mar 30 @ 11:52 PM EDT

@mrlewisyoung @ddraper @profbutcher I dream of a synergistic yin-yang cycle of questions & solutions leading to better of both. #utedchat

missplott Mar 30 @ 11:52 PM EDT

Gah! Totally forgot about #utedchat tonight. First day back from spring break on a Wednesday?! Totally throwing me off.

mrlewisyoung Mar 30 @ 11:52 PM EDT

@profbutcher Srsly. This is exactly the conversation I need to have Ss. They need a "why" for evidence. Evaluation may be the key #utedchat

MsMooreELP4 Mar 30 @ 11:52 PM EDT

A5 source, date, variables affecting said evidence, length of evidence, ability to concisely tag it #utedchat

BaggaleyMr Mar 30 @ 11:53 PM EDT

@Chronicbeard A5 so true! How do we get them to make it important? #utedchat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:53 PM EDT

Q6: The Internet era prioritizes information search & quick decisions. How do we help students be more reflective & data-driven? #utedchat

FarrBfarr Mar 30 @ 11:54 PM EDT

@Chronicbeard Motto for some "if you don't succeed quit/don't be a fool about it" - Must create culture to take risks! #UTedchat

MsMooreELP4 Mar 30 @ 11:54 PM EDT

Play website detective to reveal phony sites #utedchat

mrlewisyoung Mar 30 @ 11:54 PM EDT

@brianrozinsky @ddraper @profbutcher Kind of like how the more you learn, the more you realize you're dumb. Maybe that's just me #utedchat

brianrozinsky Mar 30 @ 11:54 PM EDT

@profbutcher @mrlewisyoung Has research revealed effective training moves to foster attention to evidence? #utedchat

ks_parsons Mar 30 @ 11:54 PM EDT

@BaggaleyMr I need to try that! I struggle with the same problem as @mrlewisyoung Hard for me to answer this question. #utedchat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:55 PM EDT

Had to slip in Q6 ... always keep my classes until the very end. (Yes, I am *that* professor. Can't change my ways now!) #utedchat

Chronicbeard Mar 30 @ 11:55 PM EDT

Maybe if we make the audience more impressive - presenting ideas to experts can motivate proper evidence. #utedchat https://t.co/vDtJNjansE

BaggaleyMr Mar 30 @ 11:53 PM EDT

@Chronicbeard A5 so true! How do we get them to make it important? #utedchat

MsMooreELP4 Mar 30 @ 11:55 PM EDT

A6 Do not over emphasize quantitative over qualitative #utedchat

mrlewisyoung Mar 30 @ 11:55 PM EDT

@profbutcher citation to this study? I'd love to read it. #utedchat

covili - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:55 PM EDT

A6 We need to set the example by being more reflective ourselves. #utedchat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:55 PM EDT

@brianrozinsky @mrlewisyoung Yes. Good evidence that specific attention to critical thinking skills can support better usage. #utedchat

brianrozinsky Mar 30 @ 11:56 PM EDT

@mrlewisyoung @ddraper @profbutcher "Definitely not just you," responds Brian dumbly. #utedchat

ddraper Mar 30 @ 11:56 PM EDT

A6: We must provide students with far more authentic opportunities to practice reflection and critical analysis. #utedchat

Chronicbeard Mar 30 @ 11:56 PM EDT

A6: take time to construct knowledge, questions, and ideas prior to investigation then revise? #utedchat

DaniKSloan Mar 30 @ 11:56 PM EDT

A6: We need to teach Ss how to evaluate resources and data. Also, we can engage Ss by teaching them to collect their own data. #utedchat

FarrBfarr Mar 30 @ 11:56 PM EDT

@Chronicbeard Purpose and meaningful audience- game changer #UTedchat

mrlewisyoung Mar 30 @ 11:57 PM EDT

Totally did a spit take when I read this. #utedchat https://t.co/AS1xEhFoO3

brianrozinsky Mar 30 @ 11:56 PM EDT

@mrlewisyoung @ddraper @profbutcher "Definitely not just you," responds Brian dumbly. #utedchat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:57 PM EDT

A6: Was surprised by how many students want to decide instantly. Trying to teach them to document/review evidence BEFORE deciding. #utedchat

BaggaleyMr Mar 30 @ 11:58 PM EDT

A6: Self assessment is a must for Ss #utedchat

brianrozinsky Mar 30 @ 11:58 PM EDT

@profbutcher @mrlewisyoung Simple as modeling & naming (think-aloud style) or noticing in others & labeling transparently? #utedchat

Great #utedchat everyone. Thanks to @profbutcher for moderating. Next week @mrlewisyoung takes the reigns. See you then!

lars3eb - Moderator Mar 30 @ 11:58 PM EDT

Sorry for being a little distracted, but I just found out I was accepted to the @Raspberry_Pi #Picademy next month! Super stoked! #UTedChat

Chronicbeard Mar 30 @ 11:59 PM EDT

@profbutcher - Thanks for a great chat tonight. I appreciate the discussion and insights from all! #utedchat

mrlewisyoung Mar 30 @ 11:59 PM EDT

A6: Goal setting and debriefs. Shocked at how effective. #utedchat

profbutcher Mar 30 @ 11:59 PM EDT

@mrlewisyoung Haven't published it yet. My collaborator gave me a hard time today about getting our data out! #needwritingtime #utedchat
