I'm my experience, asking students to match images with text engages them.

Thanks for sharing this.

Where does the idea come from that inquiry-based learning is the driving philosophy & principal practice of American public schools? It's a criticism I see frequently to justify a "shift" toward teacher-driven instruction when, from what I can tell, we never left in the first place. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Good call on the group brainstorm. I've been worried about some students getting stuck, and having a few brains on the task will help with that.

We're going a unit on self -identity and what a person's brand can be.

Trying to come up with an interview process where we encourage students to recognize/record the strengths of their peers because they dread saying nice things about themselves in a classroom.

Any suggestions? #EduSky

Thanks! The badging for the staff and students surprised me, but it made sense when I thought about it. I've heard of badges before, but didn't appreciate/understand the appeal. Now I'm working more with competencies and portfolios, badges are making more sense to me.

I haven't looked at that yet. Thanks for sharing. The science teacher in my team just started messing around with badges in the form of old fashioned stickers.

My team has been tinkering with student portfolios for the past year and a half. Any suggestions for resources related to them? Specifically, what to include, and how to present/share? #EduSky

My co-teacher asked Ss to create linear story problems, using Chat GPT (with some parameters that made it so it didn't include the answer).
Then Ss created images with Canva's AI image generator.
The problems and images went into a Google slide deck for future practice and instruction. #EduSky

I'm intrigued! Thanks for sharing. My district uses Canva. We've been happy with the AI generated images we created on there so far.
