just in case it is not popping up on your feed since i missed the hashtag, here is Q1 again #adwteach

amylpie May 10 @ 8:17 PM EDT

#a1 I provide many avenues for the students to show their learning. #ADWteach

amylpie May 10 @ 8:21 PM EDT

Right? You have to consider various ways they can meet the standard and seek out the proof in their work. #ADWteach

J_McDonald16 May 10 @ 8:22 PM EDT

1st period in the books time for Q2 for the next #adwteach question

amylpie May 10 @ 8:24 PM EDT

A2: The lack of differentiated instruction, hands on activities, engaging lessons. Some ppl are still stuck to that darn book! #ADWteach

In reply to @J_McDonald16

iVickyMcCann May 10 @ 8:24 PM EDT

A1: Praise students with positive feedback. Listen to students. #adwteach

J_McDonald16 May 10 @ 8:24 PM EDT

A2— for our Ss, often they don’t feel like they are owners of learning. See school as something that happens to them #adwteach

iVickyMcCann May 10 @ 8:25 PM EDT

A2: relationships can deter learning. Relationships with teachers and/or other students. #adwteach

J_McDonald16 May 10 @ 8:25 PM EDT

I think it helps too, when Ss see Ts take a risk and fail, it shows Ss it is OK to fail too. #adwteach

In reply to @amylpie

J_McDonald16 May 10 @ 8:27 PM EDT

A2) I always push Ts to use Coding in class, if you don’t know learn with them. Ss see you take a risk, opens them to it too #adwteach

TechMcNorris22 - Moderator May 10 @ 8:29 PM EDT

A2: lack of Differentiated Instruction #ADWteach

J_McDonald16 May 10 @ 8:31 PM EDT

Q3 is coming in a few seconds #adwteach

J_McDonald16 May 10 @ 8:32 PM EDT

Speaking of coding #adwteach

amylpie May 10 @ 8:34 PM EDT

A3: Tech & #makered give students platform to try and fail, build self-help skills, questioning, collaboration, etc. #adwteach

In reply to @J_McDonald16

J_McDonald16 May 10 @ 8:35 PM EDT

A3) I think tech is huge empowering Ss. Nothing is more empowering than finding a problem and creating a solution #ADWteach

J_McDonald16 May 10 @ 8:36 PM EDT

Ss self-efficacy and empowerment is all about comfort of failure, love #makered for that! #adwteach

A3: #adwteach. We became a 1-1 school this year here in RI. Not sure if any HS in ADW are already 1-1. worked out great. So many options!

J_McDonald16 May 10 @ 8:40 PM EDT

too keep things rolling, I am going to skip to Q6 #adwteach

J_McDonald16 May 10 @ 8:42 PM EDT

A6— this is a big one for me, as a dad of 2 girls. I always look to encourage Ss to break molds. One example our @GirlsWhoCode #adwteach

amylpie May 10 @ 8:42 PM EDT

Many 1-1 HS within the ADW area. Most require purchase at beginning of gr 9. k8 will get there, but infrastructure is a hurdle! #adwteach

In reply to @engelworks

engelworks May 10 @ 8:42 PM EDT

#adwteach

engelworks May 10 @ 8:42 PM EDT

Lowest income Cath HS in RI. Many 1st gen. About 40% students of color. Many ELL. #adwtrach

J_McDonald16 May 10 @ 8:43 PM EDT

With chromebooks, affordability is becoming easier too #adwteach

In reply to @amylpie, @engelworks

amylpie May 10 @ 8:46 PM EDT

A6: Highlight those in traditionally male/female roles that are successful. Reality TV…. Project Runway… #adwteach

engelworks May 10 @ 8:46 PM EDT

Opens many doors. Wifi @ home is an issue, even w/ special programs for Free & red price lunch recipients. 1-1 not common hereyet. #adwteach

J_McDonald16 May 10 @ 8:43 PM EDT

This is great!!!

J_McDonald16 May 10 @ 8:47 PM EDT

A6) I saw a great project for High school, instead of a trad. lit review, only find researchers who are women or minority. #adwteach

J_McDonald16 May 10 @ 8:48 PM EDT

A6) Next year, having AP CSP Ss do poster on a minority or women CS. cover my room with faces that reflect them #adwteach

J_McDonald16 May 10 @ 8:51 PM EDT

Here is Q7 #adwteach

engelworks May 10 @ 8:52 PM EDT

A6: Cath school offers great option to reflect on what God calls us to be vs. what society expects. Very freeing. #adwteach

J_McDonald16 May 10 @ 8:52 PM EDT

A7— I always try and have at least one project per quarter where Ss voice is a the essential element #adwteach

amylpie May 10 @ 8:53 PM EDT

A7: Have candid chats based on data & observation. Come up w/ solutions & extensions together, provide tools & suggestions #ADWteach

In reply to @J_McDonald16

J_McDonald16 May 10 @ 8:54 PM EDT

A7— Also, I try and emphasize effort in my rubric vs. final product. #adwteach

engelworks May 10 @ 8:55 PM EDT

A7: I share my weaknesses & how I deal with them. I ask for S help constantly! A lot of group work, so Ss can support one another #adwteach

J_McDonald16 May 10 @ 8:56 PM EDT

The last Q is coming #adwteach

TechMcNorris22 - Moderator May 10 @ 8:56 PM EDT

J_McDonald16 May 10 @ 8:59 PM EDT

A8— as @engelworks said, there are so many gifts that can help Ss be who they are and be it well! #adwteach
