hey bee and all , first of all thank you for your comments , voicethread is a great idea , but unluckily , in china , it is too slow for me to open and youtube is also blocked here for many years , i will give them rubrics like you were suggesting , but my problem is twofold
- in a group assessment , how would i give assessment for a group , but not to demotivate the each individual work , yes i couldl ask them to each present 3 mins then assess them individually i think i will go for this methods so group assessment is kinda of easy for me now , Tim , what you were suggested was the rubrics i could use , actually i have already used what you are suggested ,i will send you a copy when i am done here this week - for a individual assessment , i am still stuck , if i am using bee's idea to ask them to upload the teaching videos , that would be not too difficult , but the interaction between students are hard to capture and assess , any ideas for this ? also , if each students upload a video , do i still need to ask one of students from the group to teach in front of everyone ? after all , teaching should also be face to face ? there are 4 teachers in one group , who should i pick to present . For teaching - i think i will surely try to use Flip Classroom idea , the problem is how do i record my own teaching what are tools available there ? easy to use i am not a techie type of teacher - for Tim , your suggestions reminds me a lot of bloom taxnomy , this is something i really love to adopt in teacher training , i would love to talk with you more on this area . - For Alex , you are really killing me and making my life more difficult , but i stole the idea from you about real life case study , for teacher education , does anyone have some good real life case situation or simulation i could use , i am trying to use this http://www.explorelearning.com/ as it is mostly for math and science teacher , any expert from math area sugggest me some of resources the math and science teacher can use in china , coz math and science are very universal , 1+1=2 no matter where you are from , but alex , you need to think harder to give me more specific example , could you ? - for others , the written test idea sound good , i used to hate written test , but i think i can do something more like teacher portofolio for those 400 teachers as the written test for them thank you !! - by the way , i am not the only teacher for this project , there is one more female teacher , however i teach 90% of classess - btw this is china national teacher education program http://guopei.teacher.com.cn ,first time ever in history in china , so it is kinda of exciting to be able tohelp those 400 teachers and co-learn with them , - last but not least ,* i would like to build a teacher support network in china to support teachers from all over china , i want to create a platform for teacherse who are experimenting with the creationg of their own curriculum (school -based curriculum the platform will be international, webbased, ..it focuses on mentoring relationships, maybe one-to-one teacher exchange*, what do you wikieducator can or canot do in this task ? 2012/2/7 Barbara Dieu <beeonl...@gmail.com> > >however i have too many students , but limited time , so i canot invite > all 400 students to come to stage to give a 15 mins of demo teaching , but > i need to give them an individual assessment since this is a individual > task different from first one . > > I would use VoiceThread <http://voicethread.com> or ask them to record > themselves (give a time limit) and post the videos on YouTube . > > I'd also give them rubrics for personal and peer evaluation (they'd > have to check their performance against the rubrics and other teachers > could peer review two or three colleagues, take the criteria you set > into account and explain their evaluation - good practice for them as > well to watch their peers and write something formal about it). > > I did this with high school students on different subjects, it worked > pretty well and they enjoyed the task. > > Best regards from Brazil, > B. > > > -- > Barbara Dieu > http://barbaradieu.com > http://beespace.net > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google > Groups "WikiEducator" group. > To visit wikieducator: http://www.wikieducator.org > To visit the discussion forum: http://groups.google.com/group/wikieducator > To post to this group, send email to wikieducator@googlegroups.com > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > wikieducator-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com > -- Leo Wong Teacher and teacher trainer -------------------------------------- http://wikieducator.org/User:Leolaoshi <http://www.gem-intl.edu.cn> 机构博客:http://helpsuzhou.blogbus.com 个人博客 http://blog.sina.com.cn/leolaoshi1 Skype:leolaoshi Malaysia number +006 010 2718251 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *There is something very special and powerful about engaging directly with the real teacher and real Kids.* -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "WikiEducator" group.
