THE SOONER THE BETTER

FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT AND FEEDBACK
-Immediate feedback to increase student learning
-relying on students to correct own or not receiving feedback until the minimum of a day later
-4 question lesson checks were abandoned due to lack of time-correcting and passing back to students
-Time will be spent creating

Why not another check out cart?

-Can be used by many which is the problem.
-Impossible to plan a curriculum around such variability.
-Deters teachers from investing time in technology if they aren't sure if they can use the same lesson next year.

WHY MY CLASSROOM?

Why my students?
-Initially in the BYOD group
-I use technology to flip my classroom, have tried different programs already when able to check out a cart
-Leader-I push my department to grow professionally and bring ideas to the group.
-Implement district initiatives in my classroom.
-Our red group is growing and I want to differentiate
-I can help train other teachers on Chromebooks and ways to integrate them into the classroom
-Help prepare students for the use of technology in BYOD-8th grade teachers won't have to do it all

OTHER KEY POINTS...

LIFESPAN... DAILY PROBLEMS... REPLACEMENT...
-Lifespan-5 years...possibly longer
-Use good ones for BYOD check out
-Daily problems-tech para-learn from her about common problems that I can fix alone
-Student responsibilities-charging, check that all Chromebooks are in the cart, teaching students to use technology in order to learn
-Replacement-less due to the cart and possibly less expensive as time passes
-Student performance will drive the need to continue the program
