After completing the online session five and all of the homework, please return to this post and answer the Essential Question for Session Five by posting a COMMENT to this blog entry.
Describe the five assessments you will use to measure 4MAT instructional skill.
Be sure to include the criteria you will use to judge the following:
Engagement,
Imaging the content,
Content Knowledge,
Skills in using the content,
Extension of the learning and the end performance.
Q1 Left--- I will observe to see that all students has written the description of the golden moment and the relationship problem that was the Q1 Right activity and are engaged in the discussion.
ReplyDeleteQ2 Right--- I will watch student presentation of music or image as assigned to be sure they understand the concept.
Q3 Left--- We will review the worksheet together as a class so we can discuss sticky points.
Q3 Right--- I will create a brief peer review checklist for students to use and will ask students to use as they review each others' scripts/songs. I will ask for them, along with the song/script at the end of class and return them at the next class with comments (Note.... not sure about the timing on this assessment)but I will also be walking around and eavesdropping.
Q4 Right---Before students offer relationship advice on air, I will ask them to write out what they want to say and I will review it for accuracy in understanding the situation and the theory, and likeliness that the strategy will be effective. If students have misunderstandings or use a strategy that's outright wrong or likely to be ineffective, then I will pull them aside and question them about alternatives.
Many of these "assessments" will be either participation points although I will want to more formally "grade" the advice.
This is excellent, Lora. Particularly the remediation climate.

DeleteWanda, I can't see your wheel but Mary sent it to me. Here are some comments I hope are helpful....
ReplyDeleteRandom idea…..
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6y487b7mQj0&t=60s-- is about court case that set US birthright citizenship--- it goes back to the Chinese exclusion act from the late 1800s. I found this as I was looking for cartoons that show stereotypes of different nationalities and races. It really ties into the Japanese-American situation.
Q2 I found this article that seems to have some cartoons but I couldn’t get it to open the pictures on my computer…..https://www.theatlantic.com/national/archive/2011/11/racist-anti-immigrant-cartoons-from-the-turn-of-the-20th-century/383248/
I thought it might be interesting to compare their gummy bear pictures to those from the past. When I show thing like this in class, students are always shocked and insist such things couldn’t happen today. The Serena Williams cartoon that was controversial is a current example. You could talk about how stereotypes in the press dehumanizes and then it’s a short step to things like the internment camps. It would also tie into the graphic novel aspect of the assignment.
I really like the perform element and the online game. I plan on going back to that myself.
