A1. Give Ss the standards, then let them tell you how they want to learn it. Also let them tell you how they want to show it. #scitlap

mirandablock7 Feb 22 @ 9:13 PM EST

A1 I would say asking for ideas or projects and actually implementing them #scitlap

A2 -- Making their own personal goals and trying to continuously strive toward them. Grit and determination builds perseverance. #sciTLAP

PerkyScience Feb 22 @ 9:17 PM EST

A2 Teach Ss from the start to celebrate fails as opportunities to learn and improve. Model as you celebrate your own fails. #scitlap

A2: 2 ways: 1 Lead by example. 2 Allow for growth, failure, growth. #scitlap

@PerkyScience and #scitlap -- We like to say there are no failures. Just a learning opportunity and a chance for version 2.0.

#scitlap is rolling!!! It's not too late to jump aboard!

legendlearning Feb 22 @ 9:20 PM EST

A2 don't be afraid to fail but also encourage them to keep practicing and improving their work and definitely #scitlap

Phrasing may help. "How can you do this better" can be less scary than "What's the best way" #scitlap

A3 Establish those expectations at the beginning of the year and then reinforce. Best advice for beginner Ts. #scitlap
