    Hello - any #scitlap friends here tonight?
  • megan_hacholski Apr 26 @ 9:02 PM EDT
    Megan, 8th Science, Chicago - let Ss use water for a lab w/ Chromebooks out. Yikes. #scitlap
  • SueAtSea Apr 26 @ 9:03 PM EDT
    Hi Megan, Welcome! We have Chromebooks too…they have seen some dangers, too! #scitlap
  • SueAtSea Apr 26 @ 9:04 PM EDT
    I’m Susan in Atlanta, - today I drove off with laptop on back of car! Someone kind jumped out at light & rescued 4 me! #scitlap

    Q1: Is about homework! Do you assign it? What's your position on usefulness for science? Use A1 format with #scitlap to answer!
  • daleyscience - Moderator Apr 26 @ 9:05 PM EDT
    Kristin, 7th grade, Fiskdale, MA. Monday was the first day back from break, so there's that... #scitlap
  • SueAtSea Apr 26 @ 9:05 PM EDT
    Hi Kristin! Glad to see you! #scitlap

    A1: Extremely rare that I give HW. So much better to DO science with my Ss & explain in the moment. #scitlap
  • SueAtSea Apr 26 @ 9:07 PM EDT
    A1 This is the 1st year I’ve just NOT given HW. Everyone is good with it! #scitlap
  • daleyscience - Moderator Apr 26 @ 9:07 PM EDT
    A1 I do not assign HW. My philosophy is like the #tlap gift shop-get them excited and interested and they continue learning on own #scitlap
  • SueAtSea Apr 26 @ 9:07 PM EDT
    A1 (part 2) Earth Sci doesn’t lend itself to needing “practice” but review games can be fun. #scitlap
  • daleyscience - Moderator Apr 26 @ 9:08 PM EDT
    Love this Q. I feel strongly, can't wait to hear what others think. #scitlap
  • MRHS_Principal Apr 26 @ 9:08 PM EDT
    A1: I've started 2 ask Ts:If Ss can demonstrate their learning during the day as @alfiekohn says why send them home for 2nd shift #scitlap
  • SueAtSea Apr 26 @ 9:08 PM EDT
    Me too, Kristin, I thought I was the only one! #scitlap

    A1) I haven't assigned HW for a few years now. I didn't see gains by implementing it. I prefer Ss doing work in school. #scitlap

    A1 I do not assign regular homework. I will if it is something that must be done at home. Some do the "extra credit" I assign tho. #scitlap

  • pentaclethra Apr 26 @ 9:13 PM EDT
    A2 I need to have Ss do more reflection. We have a Science Journal but most entries are experiments and such. #scitlap
  • megan_hacholski Apr 26 @ 9:13 PM EDT
    A2: Love the SWH from @Mr_Canterbury - used it this week, amazing for reflection. #scitlap
  • daleyscience - Moderator Apr 26 @ 9:13 PM EDT
    A2 Constamtly reflect - I ask them to think about progress, organization, study habits, understanding. They hear that word a lot! #scitlap
  • SueAtSea Apr 26 @ 9:13 PM EDT
    Can you share more on what SWH is? #scitlap
    In reply to @megan_hacholski, @Mr_Canterbury
  • Dr_MPrince Apr 26 @ 9:14 PM EDT
    A2) Reflection brings closure & spurs on a call 2 action. Ss need oppty in sci to make sense of the info & know where 2 go #scitlap

    I like this idea of a google form. Easier to read through than journal entries. #scitlap

    A2 cont.) I do this via writing time via @Seesaw or DQs on @CanvasLMS. Can be all throughout the lesson. #scitlap

    Q3: Paper vs. Paperless What’s the balance for you and for your Ss? How has it changed in the last couple of years? #scitlap
  • smarterteacher Apr 26 @ 9:17 PM EDT
    A.1 Here is my feeling on HW. #scitlap
  • megan_hacholski Apr 26 @ 9:17 PM EDT
    A3: Paperless is more powerful because it's how Ss live their lives. Do as much as I can on Chromebooks. #scitlap

    Yes, Lily Tomlin! #scitlap

  • SueAtSea Apr 26 @ 9:19 PM EDT
    A3 Being in a 1:1 device enviro is great to have. We started with notebooks, but rarely use them now. I’d say 80/20 #scitlap
  • daleyscience - Moderator Apr 26 @ 9:20 PM EDT
    A3 Great blog post about paper AND digital from @jmattmiller and I totally agree. #scitlap https://t.co/o9EAAvndip
  • smarterteacher Apr 26 @ 9:20 PM EDT
    A.2 Reflection must be constant and in the normal flow of the #LEARNING process. I find Peer to Peer to be most valuable. #scitlap
  • daleyscience - Moderator Apr 26 @ 9:21 PM EDT
    Q3 Continued. We just got iPads this year (2 carts). So dabbling in @Seesaw but also keep a binder. #scitlap
  • SueAtSea Apr 26 @ 9:21 PM EDT
    Can you share an example of a peer-peer you’ve recently done? Verbal? #scitlap
    In reply to @smarterteacher
  • SueAtSea Apr 26 @ 9:22 PM EDT
    Q3 I haven’t used Seesaw but there are SO many apps etc. I can’t possibly try them all! #scitlap
    In reply to @daleyscience, @Seesaw
  • pentaclethra Apr 26 @ 9:22 PM EDT
    A3 Research shows Ss retain more reading on paper. They can more easily mark up paper as well. Labs they do paper 1st then digital. #scitlap
  • SueAtSea Apr 26 @ 9:22 PM EDT
    Q4 coming right up!! #scitlap
  • SueAtSea Apr 26 @ 9:23 PM EDT
    Q5. It’s the 21st Century! Anyone seen my mimeograph? What's become obsolete in your classroom this year? #scitlap
  • SueAtSea Apr 26 @ 9:23 PM EDT
    A3 Labs are still on paper for me. Recording data, drawing graphs, etc. #scitlap
    In reply to @pentaclethra
  • Dr_MPrince Apr 26 @ 9:23 PM EDT
    A3) I'm not ready to go 100% digital, but I've cut back on the amount of paper use due to online tech that makes it possible. #scitlap
    • SueAtSea Apr 26 @ 9:17 PM EDT
      Q3: Paper vs. Paperless What’s the balance for you and for your Ss? How has it changed in the last couple of years? #scitlap
  • smarterteacher Apr 26 @ 9:23 PM EDT
    A.3 Since going 1:1 I am about 80:20 in the paperless favor, hoping to get top 90:10 by next year. But NOT this. #scitlap
  • Dr_MPrince Apr 26 @ 9:24 PM EDT
    Did I miss Q4? #scitlap
  • SueAtSea Apr 26 @ 9:25 PM EDT
    Mystery - what happened to Q4?You didn’t miss it - your moderator hs no idea. On to Q5! #scitlap
  • daleyscience - Moderator Apr 26 @ 9:25 PM EDT
    A5 Textbooks, but ironically my district is looking into new ones. There is so much available they are almost obsolete. #scitlap
  • megan_hacholski Apr 26 @ 9:25 PM EDT
    A5: Definitely textbooks. Hardly even use as a supplement for info text. Better stuff out there. #scitlap
  • SueAtSea Apr 26 @ 9:25 PM EDT
    All the Qs are scheduled in Tweet Deck…. thought I had it all in order but I skipped 4!! #scitlap
  • daleyscience - Moderator Apr 26 @ 9:26 PM EDT
    I am a huge proponent of hand drawn graphs! #scitlap

      In reply to @pentaclethra
  • pentaclethra Apr 26 @ 9:27 PM EDT
    A5 I'm stumped! Loose leaf paper is 99% gone but that happened last year I think. #scitlap
  • SueAtSea Apr 26 @ 9:27 PM EDT
    @megan_hacholski is my twin tonight! Gotta agree on A5 as well. No textbook this year! Woot! #scitlap
  • Dr_MPrince Apr 26 @ 9:27 PM EDT
    A5) My class website believe it or not! It use to be the go to resource. Newer modes of tech allowed me to phase it out this year. #scitlap

  • SueAtSea Apr 26 @ 9:28 PM EDT
    And the way Ss lose pencils, paperless is seeming like a better and better move! #scitlap
    In reply to @pentaclethra
  • pentaclethra Apr 26 @ 9:28 PM EDT
    I have struggled with how much time to spend on hand drawn vs. digital graphs. Both are important! Ss struggle with both too. #scitlap
    In reply to @daleyscience
  • SueAtSea Apr 26 @ 9:28 PM EDT
    Do you have a place kids can go to get digital handouts, see what missed if absent, due dates? #scitlap

    I don't know what it is, graphs are tough for some reason. Feel like you have to plan and think more with pencil/paper #scitlap
    In reply to @pentaclethra
  • Mr_Canterbury Apr 26 @ 9:30 PM EDT
    A5: Textbooks are still used for comparing knowledge from printed sources and gleaning meaning from text but not relied on! #scitlap
  • SueAtSea Apr 26 @ 9:30 PM EDT
    Q6. Grading Imagine you didn’t have to give numerical grades. Would you still? How else might we assess? What have you tried? #scitlap
  • SueAtSea Apr 26 @ 9:30 PM EDT
    My Ss just learning how to graph, so important to do by hand IMHO. #scitlap
    In reply to @pentaclethra, @daleyscience
  • megan_hacholski Apr 26 @ 9:30 PM EDT
    A6: Would 'grade' based on performance alone. Can Ss show me what they've learned? Yes or no. If no, re-teach. #scitlap
  • Mr_Canterbury Apr 26 @ 9:31 PM EDT
    That's so great! I saw your pictures from the cardio lab the other day -- looks like kids are diving in! #scitlap

    In reply to @Mr_Canterbury, @megan_hacholski
  • daleyscience - Moderator Apr 26 @ 9:32 PM EDT
    A6 Heck no! Assess learning through discussions and reflection, and re-dos. #scitlap
  • pentaclethra Apr 26 @ 9:32 PM EDT
    Q6 I would give stickers, badges, and/or ranks instead of numerical grades. Still looking to gamify! #scitlap
  • Dr_MPrince Apr 26 @ 9:33 PM EDT
    A6) I really like giving XPs & letting Ss level up as a sign of mastery. I'm pushing more #gamification thanks to #xplap. #scitlap

    A6 I like the badging option, too. I wonder how Ss might choose to demonstrate what they learned? #scitlap
