Let Students Request Feedback or Evaluation? | Shifting Phases
https://shiftingphases.com/2015/04/24/let-students-request-feedback-or-evaluation
Let Students Request Feedback or Evaluation? April 24, 2015 in Assessment. Grades are not the point. I’m thinking about how to make assessments even lower stakes. The upside of requiring practise problems. So they won’t have to do any practise. That, of course, sours our classroom culture and makes it harder for them to think well. I’m considering a couple of options. One is, when they write a quiz, to ask them whether they are submitting it to be evaluated or just for feedback. Another option is simply ...

Modeling Workshop: Behind the Curtain | Non-Inertial Teaching
https://noninertialteaching.wordpress.com/2013/06/09/modeling-workshop-behind-the-curtain
Teaching girls. Teaching physics. Modeling Workshop: Behind the Curtain. The idea of introducing a room full of my colleagues to modeling instruction and teaching them how to use it in their classrooms is intimidating and exciting at the same time. Tomorrow is the first day of the workshop and it primarily involves introductions, the distribution of materials and paperwork, but we may have time to start on the ball bounce intro lab. Our plan for the next three weeks looks something like this:. Though, in...

Teaching girls. Teaching physics. Model Building on Spring Break. When we return from Spring Break, we will be spending our time investigating the nature of light. What is it? How does it move? How does sight work? This study will include things like shadows, mirrors and lenses. We’ll look at the difference between colored light and the white light we receive from the Sun. In preparation for this study, I want you to spend some time during Spring Break doing one thing:. What is a light-related phenomenon?
