I've heard of programs like this having lots of success. Any others out there or ideas? #RSDchat #moedchat

mrterborg Mar 8 @ 9:26 PM EST

I've heard of high schools and maybe others that have their own washers and driers so kids can wash their own clothes. #RSDchat

A2 absolutely they do, those kids clearly enjoy school, I'll throw out #studentpd as one of ours #rsdchat

heinousj Mar 8 @ 9:31 PM EST

A2: no question they help. Find something to interest a student and tap into their passion and they will be hooked #RSDchat

How do we do this, but also reach students who don't usually participate in school events? #RSDchat @STEAMBoxRI

What's the grade range for your #studentpd in @OrchardFarmRV? #RSDchat

In reply to @awall777, @OrchardFarmRV

awall777 Mar 8 @ 9:33 PM EST

basically, Ss pick topics they are interested in (change a tire, app design, anything really), find experts 4 them #rsdchat

6-12 maybe one day at the elementary too? #rsdchat

Question 3: What is something you've tried or seen that has not helped increase attendance? #RSDchat

awall777 Mar 8 @ 9:40 PM EST

A3 stickers, not a great motivator for why they are showing up #rsdchat

dr_riina Mar 8 @ 9:40 PM EST

#RSDchat A2: y, great programs help. So do relationships, innovative instruction, flexible personal learning and environments...

halliesmills Mar 8 @ 9:41 PM EST

A3: I'm not sure Ss actually care about daily attendance statistics...#RSDchat

dr_riina Mar 8 @ 9:41 PM EST

#RSDchat A3: badgering, punishing, building, students does not help. Most incentive programs like money only help already invested kiddos.

TechieTcher - Moderator Mar 8 @ 9:42 PM EST

A3: Calling the same 15-20 kids Ps w/the same line about attendance being an issue. @dr_riina def. adding badgering Ss to this. #RSDChat

That's not a concrete thing in their reality right now, so no surprise accreditation isn't. #RSDchat

#rsdchat Boredom almost always stems from inappropriate levels of challenge (or the perception thereof), too high or too low.

I also think if we talk about accreditation too much it actually makes kids (and Ts) feel less important. #RSDchat

I've noticed when mine feel it's important to helping others or a plan they've come up with they get to school early even. #RSDchat

banniejanie Mar 8 @ 9:50 PM EST

Like stating we get funding from their attendance. WTW? Kids mean $$ is not a motivator. #rsdchat

Attendance comes down to why it's important to them. Extra curricular involvement, ability to succeed, relationships. #rSDChat
