A1: Here is a comparison of Surface Learning vs. Deep Learning.
The pressure to "cover" content and perceived lack of time to go in depth for rigorous learning are some factors that lead to surface learning. #EdCoChat#JeffcoGenerations
A1: to close a focus on the way way to gauge student learning - this can be avoided by focusing on the standard and narrowing how often you assess full mastery vs checkpoints #edcochat
A1. Rote memorization borne out of age-old fear of standardized testing and playing by the rules of “The Test.” But the game has changed. If it can be Googled, it has no business being on your exam. @CJCain7#EdCoChat#JeffcoGenerations
A1: To get there we need to achieve deeper learning through experiences that are meaningful and have tasks that challenge students to solve complex problems. #EdCoChat
A2: Experiences that lead to deeper learning require students to solve real-world complex problems. Students have to think critically, collaborate with others, communicate their ideas and create innovative solutions. #EdCoChat#JeffcoGenerations
A2. We read 19th/20th century literature dealing with mental health (The Yellow Wall-Paper, A Good Man is Hard to Find, As I Lay Dying, etc.) then visited an actual abandoned asylum & had students design their own! SO POWERFUL. https://t.co/lNX4hImIyB#EdCoChat#JeffcoGenerations
A3: Becoming conscious & competent in using the following attached 8 design principles proved to increase student engagement will make an impact on learning. #JeffcoGenerations#EdCoChat
A3: Improving outcomes relies on aligning instruction to solid research, ensuring that pedagogical shifts are occurring, holding ourselves and others accountable for growth and showcasing evidence of improvement. #JeffcoGenerations#EdCoChat
Bonus: What type of pedagogy currently exists in your classroom or school? A pedagogy of poverty or a pedagogy of plenty? Why does this pedagogy exist? If you want to change it - how will you? #EdCoChat
I strongly believe if we are going to bring #JeffcoGenerations to scale we need to build our foundation upon intentional instructional design. #EdCoChat
