Happy Friday! As we close out another week at Buffalo Grove HS, I am focused on the topic of digital literacy.
Teach and Learn with Passion!
Teaching and Learning Quotes:
"It's not about technology, its about literacy!" adapted from Angela Maiers during a workshop I attended yesterday.
Danielson Framework for Teaching reminder:
There are 4 domains, 22 components and 76 elements that are considered aspects of a teacher's responsibility as documented through empirical studies. The 4 domains are:
1. Planning and Preparation
2. The Classroom Environment
3. Instruction
4. Professional Responsibilities
Looking at Domain 1: Planning and Preparation
1b: Demonstrating Knowledge of Students
Here's a peek at what "distinguished" looks like for 1b:
Teacher demonstrates thorough knowledge of students’ backgrounds, skills, and interests, and uses this knowledge to plan for individual student learning.
Strategy/Tool to Try: (thanks to ITF Jeff Vlk)
Works on the iPad too for those limited on space.
