WHAT TO TRY
Getting Started:
Option 1: Playlist
Make a basic playlist template for your class covering objectives and TEKS
Based on pre-assessment or formative assessment data students will choose between two paths. (I understand or I’m not there yet)
Create a playlist for each path with must-do activities for students to complete asynchronously
Students complete their assigned playlist path activities in any order they choose
Option 2: Stations
Create stations/activities covering objectives and TEKS
Based on pre-assessment or formative assessment data direct students to which stations/activities they will need to complete
Students complete their assigned stations/activities in any order they choose
Next Steps:
Option 1: Playlist
Make a basic playlist template for your class with tiered options for learning.
Embed pre-assessment or formative assessment activity, provide immediate feedback for students to self-assess their mastery of objectives.
Students will choose a learning path based on their self-assessment.
Create learning activities tied to objectives
Students complete their chosen activities at their own pace, in whichever order they decide then re-assess
*Make copies of the playlist and customize them for students who need additional scaffolding and those students who need more challenging work.
Option 2: Stations
Create stations/activities covering objectives and TEKS
Give pre-assessment or formative assessment activity, provide immediate feedback for students to self-assess their mastery of objectives.
Students will determine which stations they need to complete based on their self-assessment.
Students complete their chosen activities at their own pace, in whichever order they decide then re-assess
Consider:
Build in conference time for students to defend their learning
Give students choice in activities - interest, path, pace, etc.
Build collaborative activities
Include activities that cover PLC questions 3 & 4
Incorporate goal setting and include a way for students to track their own progress and mastery.
Include passion based learning options
