  1. Compared to the SAMR Model, how does technology used in your project affect learning?
  2. During your culminating experience, how does collaborative intelligence arise? (serial oral reports does not count)
  3. During the Big Think could both learners and adults celebrate success and plan for the future?
  4. What evidence is there that during the learning activities that coteaching is actually happening?
  5. How do the process goals demonstrate the embedding of process goals to accomplish content goals? And, do the assessments measure both content and process goals?

Activity 4: Thinking through Project 3: a Full scale Umbrella to Question learning experience

    • Build the learning experience out fully with all the rooms the learners need to do their work.
    • Make the learning experience a true collaboration between the adults and the learners.
    • You can use any of the think models or mix them up as you wish.
    • Be sure that the librarian of the partners is embedding both inquiry skills and technology that match and support the content goals of the teacher.
    • Make sure that the assessment is a joint one.
    • Make sure that the culminating experience mixes up and joins what each one of the learners have been learning and thinking about.
    • Do make the Big Think an activity AFTER the learning experience is over.
