    A1: Rule number one posted in the classroom is "Mistakes Are Ok" - leave no room for doubt on day one...mistakes make you and your work better! #AppleEDUChat
  • annfeldmann1 May 1 @ 9:05 PM EDT
    A1: It all comes back to creating a classroom environment where Ss are encouraged to try new things and learn from mistakes! Failing forward is a great way to learn! #AppleEDUchat

  • seanmarnold May 1 @ 9:05 PM EDT
    A1: I love game-based learning or #PBL as low stress ways for students to be will ing to fail forward, and they’re intrinsically motivating. #AppleEDUchat
    In reply to @danvkoch
  • BrianWTimm May 1 @ 9:05 PM EDT
    A1: I think for teachers should build in time with the understanding that learners will make mistakes, get feedback, and make revisions to their work. Value it, make it an important part of the learning process. #AppleEDUchat
  • rsaeks May 1 @ 9:05 PM EDT
    A1: While students are working on a project, keep a “challenges” list they run into. Include a reflective response where they can say what they are prod of overcoming and how they did it. #AppleEDUchat
  • dunlapbps May 1 @ 9:06 PM EDT
    #appleeduchat A1 One key is in having Ss assess their own work. I am having Ss video record their speeches, and they will listen with headphones and assess it themselves w rubric. I'm challenging them to find 5 specific things to improve. This way, Ss get that we ALL improve!
  • theipodteacher May 1 @ 9:06 PM EDT
    A1: Opportunities to learn from mistakes first comes from a teacher's ability to recognize and share their own mistakes. If we want kids to learn from mistakes we must model learning from mistakes too. #AppleEDUchat
  • myakSTEM May 1 @ 9:06 PM EDT
    I have the same motivating factor. I have to kick my kids out if I want to go home in the evening and weekends. Horrible problem to have. 😉 #AppleEDUchat
    In reply to @WallerALPHApack
  • Beth_Heidemann May 1 @ 9:06 PM EDT
    A1: Give Ss the opportunity to work on projects they are passionate about, then give them the space and time to try and try again! #AppleEDUChat
  • seanmarnold May 1 @ 9:06 PM EDT
    A1b: Also coding and computer science are great for using debugging to show that mistakes are an essential part of the iterative process. #AppleEDUchat
    In reply to @danvkoch
  • annfeldmann1 May 1 @ 9:07 PM EDT
    Love this idea! It is important to build time to reflect. It is a process of learning we sometimes neglect due to lack of time #AppleEDUchat

  • castlestephanie May 1 @ 9:07 PM EDT
    A1: Provide low-stakes assessments where mistakes are accepted as part of the learning process and Ss are encouraged to make corrections to demonstrate their learning #AppleEDUchat
  • dunlapbps May 1 @ 9:07 PM EDT
    #appleEduchat . AGREED! Well said.
    In reply to @WallerALPHApack
  • KMillerSAIL May 1 @ 9:07 PM EDT
    A1) Dedicated time for Ss to experience passion projects was (& still is) a chance to experience mistakes they are motivated to work through. #AppleEDUchat
  • WallerALPHApack May 1 @ 9:07 PM EDT
    I need to post this in my classroom Dan! In a world where Ss minds are faster than the click of a mouse or touch of a pad this statement needs to become part of their growth mindset in the classroom! #AppleEDUChat #KidsDeserveIt

  • DavidJLockett May 1 @ 9:08 PM EDT
    A1. See mistakes as a source of understanding. Having SS recognize and understand the reason for the mistake is essential. #AppleEDUchat
  • myakSTEM May 1 @ 9:08 PM EDT
    I love it. I have a similar poster... Mistakes are expected, inspected, respected, and corrected. You have to give them room to grow. #AppleEDUchat

    In reply to @KMillerSAIL
  • KarrinBurns May 1 @ 9:09 PM EDT
    A1: We should step back and let kids do the work. So often, teachers want to correct & prevent mistakes; fostering an environment where kids are in charge of managing both success & failure independently is key! #AppleEDUchat
  • dunlapbps May 1 @ 9:09 PM EDT
    #AppleEduChat LOVE this idea! It gets them keeping a list/reflecting!

    A1 Have the students work in a format or area that’s out of their comfort zone. Try to keep them from taking their usual route to get to the solution. #AppleEDUchat

    Absolutely. I can't think of anything that is so critical that kids have to suffer just so a teacher can "cover" some material. #AppleEDUchat
    In reply to @annfeldmann1
  • dunlapbps May 1 @ 9:13 PM EDT
    #appleeduchat A2 Projects with open-ended answers. Collaboration is key too. When several Ss or a group solves a problem, they come up with many different possible answers. This helps them see that there isn't only one right answer.
  • danvkoch May 1 @ 9:13 PM EDT
    In the real world, we usually get multiple attempts to fail and retry. This is great! #AppleEDUChat

    A2. Student produced #imovies. #AppleEDUchat
  • BrianWTimm May 1 @ 9:15 PM EDT
    A2: I think an inquiry based project should pose an authentic, big question that learners could take multiple directions. It should also allow for space and freedom to move between physical and digital spaces. #AppleEDUchat
  • myakSTEM May 1 @ 9:15 PM EDT
    Yep. No way to get around the fact that mistakes, errors, and problems are just a fact of life. Teaches resilience and problem solving in a powerful way. #AppleEDUchat

  • TurnbullChris May 1 @ 9:15 PM EDT
    Showing students that teachers have their own inquiry projects that they are researching provides modeling. Letting students pursue projects that solve need in their community/school makes it worthwhile. #appleeduchat
  • bethany_nugent May 1 @ 9:15 PM EDT
    A1: By providing Ss with solutions, so they know they have options when they fail. In art, I tell my students that if they make a mistake, they can flip it, fix it or live with it, and most importantly learn from it. #AppleEDUchat

    In reply to @danvkoch
  • danvkoch May 1 @ 9:17 PM EDT
    Yes! We oscillate between this stuff constantly in the “real world.” What better practice then authentic, big problems that have multiple “answers?” #AppleEDUchat

  • TurnbullChris May 1 @ 9:20 PM EDT
    Good for student to see that oscillation & revisiting the topics that matter over time to recognize that sometimes there isn't a quick easy solution #AppleEDUchat
    In reply to @danvkoch
  • WallerALPHApack May 1 @ 9:20 PM EDT
    Nicole I do something similar but the students have to self-generate their own questions to research and present with some type of creative project attached #AppleEDUChat #greatmindsthinkalike
    In reply to @janssenburns
  • bethany_nugent May 1 @ 9:21 PM EDT
    A2: Agreed! I think it is important that inquiry-based work is truly exploratory. Students don't necessarily need to know what they're looking for ahead of time... They can question, and notice through their exploration. #AppleEDUchat
    In reply to @cicohen
  • annfeldmann1 May 1 @ 9:21 PM EDT

  • bethany_nugent May 1 @ 9:22 PM EDT
    A3: By informing them of it! :) It is important that kids know what is going on in the world around them. Most Ss are naturally inquisitive so this can open doors simply by sharing what's happening :) #AppleEDUchat

  • MrsKemper May 1 @ 9:22 PM EDT
    A2/A3 I lead my teachers to use 3-Act as a structure for inquiry in PK-12 math. It gives them organization to lean on, through the lens of a specific concept. Here's a link to some of my favs (look for the 3-Act tab): https://t.co/6z9rj1U9jh #AppleEDUchat
  • theipodteacher May 1 @ 9:22 PM EDT
    A3: We have to give them time to make the connections. They won't make connections if we are busy forcing information down their throats at break neck speeds. #AppleEDUchat We can also help them by giving them samples.
  • dunlapbps May 1 @ 9:23 PM EDT
    #appleeduchat . A3 Give them an authentic audience. Ss work shouldn't only be seen by Ts and a big circular file. Get their work and their solutions in front of real-life audiences. @skype with other classes/Ss. Make it REAL.
  • marcdrumm May 1 @ 9:23 PM EDT
    A2 There are so many possibilities here, but it has to start with curiosity/interest from the student. Teachers can often encourage this simply by talking about their own everyday learning experiences. #AppleEDUchat

  • realtechfored May 1 @ 9:23 PM EDT
    A3: Cross-curricular lessons are most valuable for this purpose. If Ss can connect content between classrooms it’ll be a natural extension to make connections beyond classroom walls. #AppleEDUChat
  • myakSTEM May 1 @ 9:23 PM EDT
    You're right. It doesn't do good to hide things or not make the connections. No one like work that is only going to end up in the trash can at the end of the unit. #AppleEDUchat
    In reply to @bethany_nugent, @danvkoch
  • BrianWTimm May 1 @ 9:24 PM EDT
    A3: Bring the "real world" in or bring the kids to the "real world". For example, one of our elem schools sits on a flood control district. Representatives visited twice, and learners did projects around something effecting where and how they live. #AppleEDUchat
  • TurnbullChris May 1 @ 9:24 PM EDT
    If the inquiry project impacts their own community, the the work becomes more than an assignment or task, it gains value and credibility for students #appleeduchat
