A1- That Ss aren't being honest w/ themselves or me, worried about how other Ss see them. #ditchbook

@MsVenturino Hey Mari! A real #ditchbook #eduroadtrip connection!

JoyZanger Mar 3 @ 10:06 PM EST

A1-Ts may b reluctant to giving up control. Also Ts may worry about authentic evaluations #ditchbook

Elizabeth_Bitt Mar 3 @ 10:07 PM EST

Ts may hesitate to have Ss self-assess because students may not always be honest because they want a good grade. #ditchbook

AJBianco Mar 3 @ 10:07 PM EST

A1: Ts fear honesty of Sts and they fear a lack of control! Giving too much power to sts could be harmful to the environment. #ditchbook

WonderToWisdom Mar 3 @ 10:07 PM EST

A1 - Time. One more thing to fit in. #ditchbook

MsVenturino Mar 3 @ 10:07 PM EST

A1: Ss need to know how to accurately rate themselves, and need lots of practice. I need to model the process for them. #ditchbook

jmattmiller - Moderator Mar 3 @ 10:07 PM EST

@menxueiro Awesome! #ditchbook

emosier3 Mar 3 @ 10:07 PM EST

A1: Fear of self-assessing correctly. Ss may not know exactly what to look for when they self-assess. #ditchbook

TTmomTT - Moderator Mar 3 @ 10:07 PM EST

A1: Some may feel Ss won't assess themselves at the appropriate level. Many times they are harder on themselves. #ditchbook

WonderToWisdom Mar 3 @ 10:07 PM EST

A1 - Time. One more thing to fit in. #ditchbook

LisaGuardino Mar 3 @ 10:07 PM EST

A1: The accuracy of the assessment, the time, the training involved #ditchbook

LachapelleB Mar 3 @ 10:08 PM EST

A1 - Students have a hard time self assessing. Can be a challenge to get started. Some Ts might hesitate because of that. #ditchbook

BrianJurinek Mar 3 @ 10:08 PM EST

A1: I agree that many fear if the Ss are assessing correctly, but many Ts feel like it's their role to assess Ss #ditchbook

Robinson_RME Mar 3 @ 10:08 PM EST

A1 Teacher control, we all have it!! And Ss admitting to their work being not the top notch... #ditchbook

MsVenturino Mar 3 @ 10:08 PM EST

@WonderToWisdom I agree. I’ve started to use it, and it’s so useful for Ss. I have them self-asses, peer-asses, fix, then submit #ditchbook

RESP3CTtheGAME Mar 3 @ 10:08 PM EST

@TTmomTT Great convo starter when Ss are harder on themselves than the teacher is #ditchbook

Ajarn_Adam Mar 3 @ 10:08 PM EST

A1 May get pushback from Ps / admins, if they see self-assessment as Ts abdicating responsibility #DitchBook

lesliewind1 Mar 3 @ 10:08 PM EST

A1 students not being authentic in their self assessment, "my work is an A of course" #ditchbook

@SEANJFAHEY @JBucci19 Me too. What better way to start your edu-career, right? #ditchbook

sandyrotto Mar 3 @ 10:08 PM EST

@MsScott3grade Yes, the peer approval need is high. So hard to be their real selves. We need to make a safe place. #ditchbook

mrterborg Mar 3 @ 10:08 PM EST

@MsScott3grade Start with trust, build a safe community. Set high standards. Students will come together. Will take time. #ditchbook

Chucktaft Mar 3 @ 10:08 PM EST

A1 #ditchbook one challenge - Ss that are too self critical or too lackadaisical in their assessment - many find objectivity to be difficult

JBucci19 Mar 3 @ 10:08 PM EST

Ss may not be getting the info they need to know or may only test themselves on what they know to get a good grade. #ditchbook

Hey, I'm Mary! I teach English 10&12 t Mountain House HS in CA. 1st yr teacher interested in blended learning & gamification #ditchbook

rachelmarker Mar 3 @ 10:09 PM EST

A1: Loss of instruc minutes, unsure how, what Qs to ask, giving over "control" #ditchbook

RemScience Mar 3 @ 10:09 PM EST

A1: Ss giving themselves too little credit. Some may go other direction but too little hard on selves more likely. #DitchBook

jmattmiller - Moderator Mar 3 @ 10:09 PM EST

@AJBianco You're right, AJ. Sometimes we fear what students will say if honest. #ditchbook

SEANJFAHEY Mar 3 @ 10:09 PM EST

A1 for me it's teaching the Ss the process and self awareness that is needed. Very difficult for some younger Ss #ditchbook

Chucktaft Mar 3 @ 10:09 PM EST

@RESP3CTtheGAME @TTmomTT agreed ... unless it persists throughout the year #ditchbook

AJBianco Mar 3 @ 10:09 PM EST

@jmattmiller We need that feedback though... How else do WE learn what works vs what doesn't work for our sts and their passions? #ditchbook

MistyMitchellm Mar 3 @ 10:09 PM EST

A1: sometimes Ss don't understand how/what to asses. #ditchbook

kaleistern Mar 3 @ 10:10 PM EST

A1 I fear Ss won't take self assessment seriously. But that hasn't been the case for a majority of Ss whenever they do! #ditchbook

MsVenturino Mar 3 @ 10:10 PM EST

@BrianJurinek May be my role, but I’m not teaching my Ss anything if I do for them. I’m having a hard time with implementation #ditchbook

@menxueiro Fear. Cheating not so much. We've all experienced those difficult open book exams . #ditchbook

jmattmiller - Moderator Mar 3 @ 10:10 PM EST

A1: even if we see value in self assessment, I think we may fear doing it wrong. Fear of failure/wasted time/looking foolish. #ditchbook

TTmomTT - Moderator Mar 3 @ 10:10 PM EST

@Chucktaft @RESP3CTtheGAME Ss need to be guided through the process. Show them how and set the goal as improvement. #ditchbook

rachelmarker Mar 3 @ 10:10 PM EST

@Elizabeth_Bitt True. Good opportunity for Ts to help Ss learn how to reflect. #ditchbook

Ajarn_Adam Mar 3 @ 10:10 PM EST

@WonderToWisdom Yes, I think this is a concern #DitchBook

mrterborg Mar 3 @ 10:10 PM EST

@AJBianco Who's environment? The Ts or the Ss? Authentic learning and S focusing Q&As rock. #ditchbook

BrianJurinek Mar 3 @ 10:10 PM EST

If students are taught how to self assess and provide feedback to their peers, it can empower them in the learning process #ditchbook

RESP3CTtheGAME Mar 3 @ 10:10 PM EST

Very true. Hopefully, we can shift the focus to learning. #ditchbook https://t.co/91oZc0nMBJ

JBucci19 Mar 3 @ 10:08 PM EST

Ss may not be getting the info they need to know or may only test themselves on what they know to get a good grade. #ditchbook

A1: I agree that many fear if the Ss are assessing correctly, but many Ts feel like it's their role to assess Ss #ditchbook

A1: When students own and assess their learning there may be a fear of losing control. #ditchbook

@mrterborg Yes... I have the picture of "What success Looks Like" on my wall so they see that it's not easy. #ditchbook

TTmomTT - Moderator Mar 3 @ 10:14 PM EST

A2: To be learners, Ss must be able to self-assess. You can't learn if you don't know what you still need to learn. #ditchbook

LachapelleB Mar 3 @ 10:14 PM EST

A2 - I believe in the power of reflection. Self-assessment gets them thinking and reflecting. Helps them understand themselves.#ditchbook

Chucktaft Mar 3 @ 10:14 PM EST

A2 #ditchbook metacognition, maturity, focus on learning and growth instead of the letter - exactly what I love about learning

AnnaHarrisR Mar 3 @ 10:14 PM EST

A1. Fear that Ss rely too much on praise from Ts and would be uncomfortable w self assessment. Good to get Ss out of comfort zone #ditchbook

A1 #ditchbook one challenge - Ss that are too self critical or too lackadaisical in their assessment - many find objectivity to be difficult

MsScott3grade Mar 3 @ 10:14 PM EST

A2- Ss need to know where they are and how to recognize that! Learning isn't just about school facts, it's emotional growth too! #ditchbook

Elizabeth_Bitt Mar 3 @ 10:14 PM EST

Giving good feedback from a Ts is a key component. Ss get an assignment w/ an "D-" what does that mean? #ditchbook https://t.co/0uE99lNRwx

Ss may not be getting the info they need to know or may only test themselves on what they know to get a good grade. #ditchbook

@tammy_embry And not just posting the I Cans, but samples of proficiency. Use them as proficiency "mentor texts" Many need that. #ditchbook

SEANJFAHEY Mar 3 @ 10:26 PM EST

@ohsoearly @JoyZanger exactly I put our "learning targets" (standards) up in the board for the week/unit and refer to them often #ditchbook

@LachapelleB Have you ever done a socratic seminar in science? #ditchbook

@Chucktaft I agree. I like to show multiple examples of profienccy. Esp in writing, when Ss think more words=better. Ugh. #ditchbook

#ditchbook A3 We currently used rubrics and anchor charts built from ss that are for everyday regarding effort/active learning.

#ditchbook A3: rubrics are a helpful tool in showing Ss what proficient looks like, as well as exceeds. Allows for self-reflection too.
