Questions #whatisschool, June 14, 2018 7PM ET
1) How has technology helped your break the bounds of traditional learning?
2) How does the learning grow and evolve in your classroom, beyond one-and-done activities? How do you connect one activity to the next?
3) Do you allow students to publish their work for the world? Why or why not? If you do, please share links and examples.
4) How do you help build a continuous learning mindset in your students? Have you ever had students set their own learning goals?
5) How do you encourage creativity and innovation? How do you foster it as a teacher?
6) What opportunities do you give students to take risks?
I am exploring the concept of student agency. I am seeking advice about how to solicit reactions form students that allow them to have authentic learning situations. How do I respond to what seem to be simple ideas and assist the students to develop this to become a deeper learning situations?
