a small epiphanyI tmblr.co/ZZ2Wxn1wK1mSb

it’s not about me :: take two - It’s been a week since I completed my 9-week internship, and it’s with a... tmblr.co/ZZ2Wxn1uXTaF4

I must be teaching in a different universe for students to ask for more homework :P #feedback #rsg

@stuartdlord Mmm I defs think that accountability is important and _can_ help improve learning, but depends on how it’s achieved.

@stuartdlord Yup—in terms of a state or federal level of external accountability

Accountability—in ignoring its effects on learning— can easily undermine the aim of improving schooling that it claims to serve #edureadings

Feedback is: least effective when focusing attn on self; more effective when focusing on task; most effective with goal-setting #edureadings

Real feedback has an impact on future performance; good feedback improves student learning. #edureadings

Feedback: info about a gap between the actual & reference level of a standard _which is used to alter the gap in some way_ #edureadings

Love it when Easter coincides with school unit on genetics: perfect excuse to prep a lesson on Easter egg genetics :D

@PensiveM Mmm what really strikes me is the mindset you capture: genuinely striving for inclusiveness, not just fulfilling DEC requirements

Initial steps towards utilising teacher aide support in a classroom more inclusively. @randomrambIings @PensiveM

@EduTweetOz @PensiveM This is so helpful, thank you so much for putting this together!!! Particularly love 4 (:

Celebrating #CNY in the Luo household (: So thankful for the blessing of family and abundance (:

@aliceleung P. S. Personally I prefer the pond over the forest module—it’s less “American” and more adaptable to Aus context xD (5)

@aliceleung Ss I’ve used it with have really seemed to enjoy it and personally I think it makes food webs a lot more interesting :P (4)

@aliceleung to construct food webs collaboratively w/ whole class (Ss roleplay diff organisms) or individually ecomuve.gse.harvard.edu/foodweb/foodwe… (3)

@aliceleung Ss can create own avatar & explore environment to “capture & collect” organisms (besides much more), & then use info (2)

@aliceleung Not exactly a teaching program, but have you heard of EcoMuve? ecomuve.gse.harvard.edu It’s great for teaching food webs (1)
