A2a Personalization: allowing student choice when getting them to reach your outcomes.Rubrics help both Ss & Ts evaluate learning #mtedchat

GruntledChalkie Feb 23 @ 10:18 PM EST

A2: Differentiation often gets bad rap bc we seldom associate it w/student choice, learning freedom. Choice=exceptionally powerful #mtedchat

lenessakeehn Feb 23 @ 10:19 PM EST

A2b Individualization is when the projects are uniquely crafted for the individual Ss ability and achievement for success #mtedchat

JordanFrotz Feb 23 @ 10:22 PM EST

#MTedchat A2a) but high expectations on all fronts

GruntledChalkie Feb 23 @ 10:22 PM EST

A2b) but differentiation has to do with level of depth according to student ability or maybe need. #MTedchat

mtkristigaines Feb 23 @ 10:23 PM EST

A2: Individualization takes into account the whole student whereas differentiation (in my mind) is based on academic need only. #MTedchat

GruntledChalkie Feb 23 @ 10:24 PM EST

A2c) i thought individualisation was how the student presents the work. in their own way #MTedchat

JessRGallo Feb 23 @ 10:24 PM EST

A2b individualization=teachers choosing unique products for stds' needs. Definitions depend on the desired outcomes! #MTedchat

A4 formative assessments are the quality checks along the way. Summative assmts are at the end to to measure standard #mtedchat

By my definition modification is not at standard but personalisation is designed to stimulate student #MTedchat

I'm with you all on A4, but I think summative gets a bad rap. All forms of assmt have roles to play. We just need to rebalance! #MTedchat

GruntledChalkie Feb 23 @ 10:41 PM EST

A4) Formative - to find students strengths and weaknesses to help improve Summative - final assessment #MTedchat

A4: Formative assessment drives my instruction by showing the learning path each S is taking. #MTedchat

BDDroessler Feb 23 @ 10:42 PM EST

GruntledChalkie Feb 23 @ 10:43 PM EST

@JessRGallo There is a time and place for summative. Just that for a long time it was the only assessment, that was the problem #MTedchat

@bookwormmarla I know, right? That's why I'm so in love with where I'm at right now... All things fit together. #mtedchat

@GruntledChalkie Unfortunately, I think we're still in an age of outside, summative assmt. #MTedchat

I guess, by my earlier answer, Individualized and Personalized are synonymous. #MTedchat

mtkristigaines Feb 23 @ 10:46 PM EST

@JessRGallo I think you hit the nail on the head. It's been so unbalanced that we've run the other way. We need to redesign SA #MTedchat.

Mr_Olsen_Says Feb 23 @ 10:46 PM EST

I still push back on how much Summative is needed. Let's pose that question: in authentic learning environment is it ever needed? #mtedchat

GruntledChalkie Feb 23 @ 10:46 PM EST

A5) blended learning involves a combination of techniques. Formal, online, experiential etc #MTedchat

JessRGallo Feb 23 @ 10:47 PM EST

@GruntledChalkie I have strong opinions about tchrs' need to make a case for formative assmt. We DO know our stdts! #MTedchat

GruntledChalkie Feb 23 @ 10:48 PM EST

@JessRGallo But a new dawn is rising! We can change that through stubbornness and just doing it our way #MTedchat

GruntledChalkie Feb 23 @ 10:49 PM EST

@JessRGallo We had better know then or else we are not teachers - we are just robots #MTedchat

Sometimes defining "types" of education or learning is a little like talking about "real country" music. #mtedchat (sorry, stuck on old Q)

cristama - Moderator Feb 23 @ 10:49 PM EST

@Mr_Olsen_Says Sadly, until everyone agrees on definition of authentic learning And an understanding of how to assess growth… Yes. #mtedchat

zoomddy Feb 23 @ 10:50 PM EST

@cristama Sadly, until everyone agrees on definition of authentic learning (Ts can't even agree on def of education) #mtedchat

jwalkup Feb 23 @ 10:51 PM EST

@JessRGallo @cristama Agreed 100% #MTedchat

cristama - Moderator Feb 23 @ 10:52 PM EST

Q6: Define: Professional Learning Community (PLC) or Professional Learning Network (PLN) (Implications in education)? #MTedchat

cristama - Moderator Feb 23 @ 10:52 PM EST

@zoomddy I would agree... Educators at all levels... #mtedchat

bookwormmarla Feb 23 @ 10:53 PM EST

A6 - In my district, PLCs meet regularly, i.e. elem libs. PLN is YOU All! #MTedchat

A6: My BEST PLC/PLN has been the learning/collaborating I have done in the last year on Twitter!#mtbos #mtedchat #mctmmath #tmc16

mtkristigaines Feb 23 @ 10:54 PM EST

A6: Follow educators who I seek out for inspiration, information...and a good hard push in the right direction when I need it! #mtedchat

GruntledChalkie Feb 23 @ 10:55 PM EST

A6) Your PLN are the group of people you can exchange ideas with about teaching. That's you #MTedchat

BDDroessler Feb 23 @ 10:55 PM EST

Started PLC's this sy. Love the concept because we are focused on student learning and not meeting just to meet as a staff. #MTedchat

A6: I've come to view a PLC as a systemic work group. Assigned, but focused. I see PLN as self – selected & dynamic #MTedchat #mtedchat

Authentic learning in most forms=process. We authentically learn by process. Formative gets most from S learning in ways sum can't #mtedchat

GruntledChalkie Feb 23 @ 10:56 PM EST

My twitter PLN is very valuable. At school I have little opportunity to connect with those who teach same classes as me #MTedchat

PLC has been powerful at TR bc it gets singleton's involved & them to collaboration table. #MTedchat https://t.co/aGaZlOHrwq
