Communicate 3 - Digital Feedback

I chose to do a video where I explained the feedback while having the test on the screen. I liked this way because I wanted to show exactly what I was commenting on when giving the feedback and sometimes and audio clip allows the feedback to be more welcoming than a paragraph that has to interpreted. The second resource, I used as a way to celebrate progress and give the students a fun way share what they have accomplished and what they need to continue. Lastly I liked creating a fun image that gave math a positive light because so many students automatically think that they are horrible at math and they lose confidence in their abilities. This will give them encouragement that they can do math.

Evaluate 2 - Data Driven Instruction & Analytics

In the teacher assignments, it is seen that the classes with over 50 students will need to more extensive attention when it comes to differentiation and individualized learning. Also the AB courses will have more content to cover over time so it is vital that the pacing is set in advanced and that there is constant communication to ensure that the students are keeping up. Lastly being that all the classes are starting on the same day, it is vital that the teacher is prepared. In the roster, it is clear that the teacher had several students that need special attention when planning for instruction. two students will need 504 accommodations and one student will require time for accelerations since she is gifted. The students also have different session lengths, so it is important to ensure that students who have less weeks, still get all the required content that is needed to be learned. In this communication log, the teacher sends out general informatio...

Create 3 - Open Educational Resources

Open Educational Resource - A resource that can be used while teaching, learning, researching and in assessment. It is can be accessed freely and have open licensing for different media and documents format. The biggest challenge when using OER is that many sources are "labeled" as open licensing with free usage but will originate from non free licensed sources, which is still against copyright laws.

Great job of completing the geometry unit! You have mastered many of the standards well including knowing the angle relationships and the angle definitions. Also, you showed mastery in volume and surface area—which can be tricky, but you were able to learn it with ease. Please take the time to review how to find missing angles in triangles with this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnDeYhBoCzs . Also, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=caspFRZfWeI is a video that can help with finding missing angles in polygons. Lastly, remember to review the difference between area and the circumference formulas. You did a fine job in finding the circumference, but the question asked for area. You are very close in showing mastery for this unit, and I believe you will get there! If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me.
