IMPROVING ENGAGEMENT AND OUTCOMES IN STUDENT PROJECTS PLEASE PICK UP A LAMINATED CARD AS YOU ENTER THE ROOM. DON’T GET COMFORTABLE, YOU WILL BE MOVING.
TODAY’S TAKEAWAYS • At least one grouping strategy • A group project idea • Meaningful peer feedback strategy
GROUPING – Random or Intentional? Random: • Interesting/Fun • Faster • Less Work • Unequal Ability Distribution • More Complaints Intentional: • Slower • Timely Upfront Prep • More Equality of Ability • Less Complaints
GROUPING EXAMPLES RANDOM: INTENTIONAL:
INTERSECTION REDESIGN PROJECT • Group A: Describe, in detail, the current traffic controls and patterns for each direction of the intersection. Then create a visual aid to illustrate the current design. • Group B: Identify an issue with the current intersection design and create and explain a proposed solution. Then create a visual representation of your new design. • You have 5 minutes
PEER CRITIQUE • “I noticed…” Statement = something they did • Spelling, grammar, inaccuracies, etc. • “I wonder…” Statement = something they could do • Big idea, change format or sequence, etc.
HOW I TEACH IT • Introduction videos (DDI, Magic Roundabout, Pinavia Roundabout) • Partial Example – not the same intersection • Scoring Guide • Chunk the Steps – analyze then create • Peer Critique – early in process or twice (optional- group directions) • Revise • Optional - Present
