Q2: starting this year, I have led into with the growth mindset but I can see how grit will play a vital role #GeniusHour

RaRaPenguin Sep 1 @ 9:17 PM EDT

A2: I think both #growthmindset & #grit play an important role in @geniushour! Launch & foster GMS & instill & model it & GRIT. #geniushour

MrsBarone_AP Sep 1 @ 9:17 PM EDT

Q2. I'd say Growth Mindset. Being open to other's passion and learning about it from each other is key. #geniushour

ChristineYH Sep 1 @ 9:19 PM EDT

A2. Have not started yet but think that from the Ts perspective to frame GH in growth mindset & Ss to experience & develop grit. #geniushour

GeoSpiegs Sep 1 @ 9:36 PM EDT

@jodiforeman @hughtheteacher really well actually Ss liked making up their own tags to signify importance or #onthetest et al #geniushour

courtney_c_carp Sep 1 @ 9:37 PM EDT

A1: With Ts we have discussed modeling our own passions for learners first. #geniushour

Donna_Meyer Sep 1 @ 9:37 PM EDT

@GeoSpiegs Oh I really like the sound of that! #fun #bettheylovedit #geniushour :D

AnneMidd Sep 1 @ 9:37 PM EDT

#geniushour A4 I have Sts look back at last reflection and the goal they set prior to starting new session. Make a plan then move on.

gallit_z - Moderator Sep 1 @ 9:37 PM EDT

@courtney_c_carp @DMcClatcheyElem Glad you could pop by! #geniushour

hughtheteacher Sep 1 @ 9:37 PM EDT

@TheFort_FW the skype chat has taken place during school hours using my account #geniushour

@gallit_z I did the same and the kids really appreciated it. #geniushour

gallit_z - Moderator Sep 1 @ 9:38 PM EDT

A4: peer feedback is also very helpful for #GeniusHour. Sts give some when designing project and then also after presentations

2meegs Sep 1 @ 9:38 PM EDT

@PrincipalTMoore @geniushour #geniushour can happen anywhere. But #geniushour & #makerspace go hand in hand.

A2: Promoting language of growth mindset with learners and parents is a must #geniushour

MissLindseyM Sep 1 @ 9:39 PM EDT

MsNeumannLPES Sep 1 @ 9:39 PM EDT

@courtney_c_carp Totally starting humming the Wonder Wall song. #geniushour

GeoSpiegs Sep 1 @ 9:39 PM EDT

@MissLindseyM @DiscoveryEd I like that! I was wondering one way to put the projects together! #geniushour

A4: my fav way to give feedback/ AFL = one on one conferences--hard to get to everyone, but a few groups each time is doable! #GeniusHour

hughtheteacher Sep 1 @ 9:41 PM EDT

Q5. Do you assess #geniushour ? If yes how do you go about doing it and why. If not why do you not assess?

AnneMidd Sep 1 @ 9:41 PM EDT

@gallit_z #geniushour Important to give loads of time for peer feedback. Sts can grow to be exceptional at this.

hughtheteacher Sep 1 @ 9:42 PM EDT

a4. I like idea of connecting sts working on similar projects with other sts in other classes. want to do more of it. #geniushour

MsNeumannLPES Sep 1 @ 9:42 PM EDT

A5: Should it be a good faith effort? Also, if the Ss were using credible sources, shouldn't that also count towards "credit"? #geniushour

artroom411 Sep 1 @ 9:42 PM EDT

Did #passionprojects #geniushour in spring. Used blogging as a Ss reflection https://t.co/lEOWmMaA6N. Ss asked for gh first today...YES!

RaRaPenguin Sep 1 @ 9:42 PM EDT

@MsNeumannLPES @MissLindseyM I let my Ss have choice for presentation & project. Many ways to share learning creatively. #geniushour

ldavies1012 Sep 1 @ 9:42 PM EDT

A5: not grading because I just want Ss to engage is authentic learning w/o worries of grades #geniushour

kimforuria Sep 1 @ 9:42 PM EDT

A4 I like to have my Ss fill out a Google form for each presentation for each other. I use a rubric for Speaking and Listening #geniushour

ChristineYH Sep 1 @ 9:43 PM EDT

A5. Depends on what you are assessing and why. AFL to help Ss learn & learn about learning. Yes, not summative. Is #geniushour a process?

Donna_Meyer Sep 1 @ 9:43 PM EDT

@GeoSpiegs LOL! That's awesome! This just made my day! #geniushour https://t.co/uedWY8jKm8

ldavies1012 Sep 1 @ 9:42 PM EDT

A5: not grading because I just want Ss to engage is authentic learning w/o worries of grades #geniushour

RaRaPenguin Sep 1 @ 9:44 PM EDT

A5: Absolutely not! @geniushour is about #passion #creativity #innovation. You can't put a grade on that! Use as learning ops #geniushour

shaun_pepper Sep 1 @ 9:44 PM EDT

A4: one possible strategy record drawings or words on post-its then s's categorize information in a visual way @hughtheteacher #geniushour

dubioseducator Sep 1 @ 9:44 PM EDT

Kinders collaborated w/cardboard work & came up w/idea how to share & take home project they created. Creative flexible & happy #geniushour

Taxi2threeboys Sep 1 @ 9:44 PM EDT

A5: I assess #geniushour for the learning skills;responsibility,collaboration, independent work, organization, and initiative

ChristineYH Sep 1 @ 9:44 PM EDT

A5. Could you assess curricular and/or core competencies as written in #bccurric? Curious and interested how. #geniushour

MissLindseyM Sep 1 @ 9:45 PM EDT

A5: #geniushour https://t.co/JOSW8eQ9ly

MsNeumannLPES Sep 1 @ 9:42 PM EDT

A5: Should it be a good faith effort? Also, if the Ss were using credible sources, shouldn't that also count towards "credit"? #geniushour

@hughtheteacher A5 ❤️this question. Think I'm going to assess parts of the process not the end product. #geniushour https://t.co/VQuBzDwu26

hughtheteacher Sep 1 @ 9:41 PM EDT

Q5. Do you assess #geniushour ? If yes how do you go about doing it and why. If not why do you not assess?

Bake4Books Sep 1 @ 9:45 PM EDT

A5: As a club, I want this to be about the process & love of learning. They present to show what they learned but no grade. #geniushour

mrsdkrebs - Moderator Sep 1 @ 9:45 PM EDT

A5 Always assessing the process, making sure I'm learning about how #geniushour works for Ss. I don't record final marks for the Ss, though.

PaulSolarz Sep 1 @ 9:46 PM EDT

dubioseducator Sep 1 @ 9:47 PM EDT

A5 Non graded in any of the classes at my school who had #geniushour my why not https://t.co/g5gPjjPXsn

Donna_Meyer Sep 1 @ 9:47 PM EDT

@courtney_c_carp I'm so jealous of the learning walls/whiteboards in the hallway! Been asking for them for years! #geniushour

gallit_z - Moderator Sep 1 @ 9:47 PM EDT

@ChristineYH I'd give feedback & have Sts reflect, but core competencies (GH fits well with all) are ongoing/not graded, right? #geniushour

jodiforeman Sep 1 @ 9:47 PM EDT

A5- I've graded based on effort put forth, presentation (rubric given), teamwork, self scored, etc. Not a "high stress" grade #geniushour

Bake4Books Sep 1 @ 9:47 PM EDT

A3: Looking at their focus question and some modified research records pages. #geniushour https://t.co/RR7VXugk0N

hughtheteacher Sep 1 @ 9:23 PM EDT

Q3. Describe some #geniushour strategies you have or have used to support students who struggle with gaining surface knowledge of a topic.

MissLindseyM Sep 1 @ 9:48 PM EDT

@ajjuliani says it well! #geniushour https://t.co/e2lJr68798

MargaretMariel2 Sep 1 @ 9:48 PM EDT

A5 No I don't think #geniushour should be graded.Ss need time to explore, learn/ take risk w/o fear of failure in a nurturing environment

Donna_Meyer Sep 1 @ 9:48 PM EDT

@PaulSolarz Hi Paul! Glad you made it! #geniushour

@Donna_Meyer @PaulSolarz First Thursday of each month. #geniushour

Donna_Meyer Sep 1 @ 9:52 PM EDT

@PaulSolarz So Paul, do you not grade any part of it? Their blogs, their reflections, their pitch? #geniushour

gallit_z - Moderator Sep 1 @ 9:52 PM EDT

@MsNeumannLPES I think many folks use communication, presentation standards for this #geniushour

hughtheteacher Sep 1 @ 9:52 PM EDT

A5. Try to avoid grading but assessing always. tried google forms last year to get updates on sts projects via a spreadsheet #geniushour

AnneMidd Sep 1 @ 9:53 PM EDT

A6 #geniushour I need to get better at setting a time & sticking to it.

hughtheteacher Sep 1 @ 9:54 PM EDT

A5. We also had more peer to peer feedback times for each project. 2 stars & a wish... we define what we are looking for before #geniushour

dubioseducator Sep 1 @ 9:54 PM EDT

A6 Will be interested in your ideas #geniushour

Donna_Meyer Sep 1 @ 9:54 PM EDT

@Donna_Meyer Only once per month! Makes it even harder to miss!

jodiforeman Sep 1 @ 9:54 PM EDT

@hughtheteacher I discovered last year about putting my rubrics in as a google form so scores go into spreadsheet. #easier #geniushour

Yup. Formative assessment/feedback is awesome! Summative assessment/eval/grades for #geniushour doesn't sit 4 me https://t.co/lmltJ3HWRv
