The power of reflections! #fwedchat

1to1John Apr 25 @ 8:05 PM EDT

We are heading up to Toronto to check out a baseball game and Niagara Falls, can't wait. #fwedchat

A1: If we don't reflect on what we've done we cannot adjust our approach to improve it on the next attempt #fwedchat

1to1MC - Moderator Apr 25 @ 8:07 PM EDT

A1. To allow them to absorb and think about what was just taught #fwedchat

edtech_renegade - Moderator Apr 25 @ 8:07 PM EDT

A1: Ss need to be able to fit what they have learned into their existing schema. Helps to see how everything connects. #FWEdChat

danielbaham - Moderator Apr 25 @ 8:08 PM EDT

A1: Reflection can allow Ss to draw connections between lessons and content areas and maybe even the larger world #FWEDCHAT

amberlie22 Apr 25 @ 8:09 PM EDT

A1) Yes students must make connections and learn from their mistakes. #fwedchat

Jumping in. Paula from Kansas. I have jury duty in June. #fwedchat

1to1Sascha - Moderator Apr 25 @ 8:12 PM EDT

I like the idea of using flipgrid to allow Ss to not only reflect on results but also discuss different opinions about them #FWEDCHAT

1to1John Apr 25 @ 8:12 PM EDT

They need time to process what they're doing before moving on. Trying to avoid out with the old facts, in with new type learning #fwedchat

A2: @padlet is an awesome tool or you can use our LMS @itslearningUSA discussion boards #fwedchat

pmccarthy722 Apr 25 @ 8:12 PM EDT

A2: @Kahootit @padlet are great tech reflection tools. Of course, Google Docs. #fwedchat

edtech_renegade - Moderator Apr 25 @ 8:13 PM EDT

A2: I believe Ss should be provided as many options as possible and select those that best fit their needs. #FWEDCHAT

amberlie22 Apr 25 @ 8:14 PM EDT

A2) I love the google tools! Google sites to keep a portfolio of their learning experiences. #fwedchat

JRose_Edu - Moderator Apr 25 @ 8:15 PM EDT

A1: So that they can adjust, realign, and edit their plans #fwedchat

edtech_renegade - Moderator Apr 25 @ 8:15 PM EDT

A2: Journaling program is good. But then again, some may gravitate to A/V recordings. #FWEdChat

amberlie22 Apr 25 @ 8:15 PM EDT

It is so great to see students track their own learning! #fwedchat

pmccarthy722 Apr 25 @ 8:15 PM EDT

I love https://t.co/uABtLJg2we, as well. It is a great reflection and teaching tool. Not just for plaigirism .... #fwedchat

danielbaham - Moderator Apr 25 @ 8:15 PM EDT

A2: Perhaps they could start a #Google site that builds as they matriculate and becomes an #edtech #portfolio for them to keep #fwedchat

1to1Sascha - Moderator Apr 25 @ 8:16 PM EDT

@danielbaham love that idea #FWEDCHAT

JRose_Edu - Moderator Apr 25 @ 8:16 PM EDT

A2: I'm going to say @padlet (per usual), but @flipgrid & student blogging are also great! #fwedchat

edtech_renegade - Moderator Apr 25 @ 8:13 PM EDT

Ooooooh, I'll bet you're excited about that! Welcome, thanks for joining us. #fwedchat

JRose_Edu - Moderator Apr 25 @ 8:17 PM EDT

Yes! Great for digital portfolios. #fwedchat

1to1John Apr 25 @ 8:18 PM EDT

I love going into classrooms and seeing Ts use @flipgrid or @RecapThat for reflections. Great tools that Ss can always revisit! #fwedchat

1to1MC - Moderator Apr 25 @ 8:19 PM EDT

A3: I think alternating between formative assessment and reflection is a good way to work through a lesson #fwedchat

pmccarthy722 Apr 25 @ 8:19 PM EDT

#fwedchat EVERY DAY!!

amberlie22 Apr 25 @ 8:18 PM EDT

#fwedchat

JRose_Edu - Moderator Apr 25 @ 8:21 PM EDT

A3:Constantly. Introspection &mindfulness lead to purposeful actions, which is something that Ss will benefit from throughout life #fwedchat

amberlie22 Apr 25 @ 8:18 PM EDT

#fwedchat

1to1John Apr 25 @ 8:21 PM EDT

Why couldn't we find time to do this almost daily? Ss learn something new everyday right? Even 2 or 3 times/wk would be great. #fwedchat

amberlie22 Apr 25 @ 8:18 PM EDT

#fwedchat

edtech_renegade - Moderator Apr 25 @ 8:21 PM EDT

A3: If there is a “study hall” period, that would be a great time. Also make Ss aware to use those transition times in class!. #FWEdChat

amberlie22 Apr 25 @ 8:22 PM EDT

Ok guys last question.. #fwedchat

1to1John Apr 25 @ 8:22 PM EDT

One of my campuses does this so Ss have something to take with them after they graduate. I love it. #fwedchat

In reply to @danielbaham

JRose_Edu - Moderator Apr 25 @ 8:25 PM EDT

A4: Normally by discussing it w/others. Engaging w/people is how I best refine my ideas & thoughts #fwedchat

amberlie22 Apr 25 @ 8:22 PM EDT

Ok guys last question.. #fwedchat

1to1John Apr 25 @ 8:25 PM EDT

This is SO important! We have to reflect just as much as Ss, otherwise we're never improving ourselves. Make time at the end of PD #fwedchat

amberlie22 Apr 25 @ 8:22 PM EDT

Ok guys last question.. #fwedchat

amberlie22 Apr 25 @ 8:25 PM EDT

A4) I always try to teach something new that I learn. #fwedchat

1to1John Apr 25 @ 8:27 PM EDT

Forcing yourself to master the subject before sharing. Great idea! #fwedchat

In reply to @amberlie22

pmccarthy722 Apr 25 @ 8:27 PM EDT

Q4: I want to start a BLOG. I am working up the courage to start soon. Maybe I will have time while in the court room this summer.😀#fwedchat

amberlie22 Apr 25 @ 8:22 PM EDT

Ok guys last question.. #fwedchat

danielbaham - Moderator Apr 25 @ 8:27 PM EDT

A4: Love informal chats and recaps about learning w/colleagues and friends keep the conversations going even if they're periodic #fwedchat

1to1John Apr 25 @ 8:28 PM EDT

That's a great way to document your personal learning and experiences. Good luck getting it started. #fwedchat

In reply to @pmccarthy722

amberlie22 Apr 25 @ 8:29 PM EDT

It's all about being connected to other educators who share your passion and love learning! #fwedchat

edtech_renegade - Moderator Apr 25 @ 8:29 PM EDT

A4: Informal chats definitely. Also by thinking how I can pass this knowledge on. (And listening to some good #HEAVYMETAL as well) #FWEdChat

1to1MC - Moderator Apr 25 @ 8:30 PM EDT

A3Ts have a final project with PD often leads to reflection, they have to make something that's applicable to what they teach #fwedchat

pmccarthy722 Apr 25 @ 8:30 PM EDT

So true! Thanks for connecting tonight. #fwedchat
