Week 2 Reflections!



This week in class, we went into more detail with rubrics, checklists, and rating scales. I also learned the importance of observation and how to make a rubric correctly. I learned that there are three different types of rubrics, holistic, single-point, and analytic. Making a rubric is a lot harder than I thought it would be. Holistic rubrics are the most general kind of rubrics that have 5 levels of performance. These rubrics do not provide targeted feedback to students but are easier for teachers to create. Single-Point rubrics break down components of an assignment into different criteria and there is less time to create. The areas and levels of concern and distinction are without specified limits. Analytic Rubrics separate their characteristics of an assignment into parts. This gives students a more clear picture as to why their assignment is what it is and the reason why they got the score that they did. This week we got the opportunity to create our own rubrics in a group, based on certain standards.

Week 4 Reflection!

  This week in class, I learned about Bloom's taxonomy and DOK. Bloom's taxonomy is set up as a six level pyramid. This can be used to help you when planning a lesson or can serve as a teaching guide to teachers. The pyramid goes from the bottom up to the top, the levels are remember, understand, apply, analyze, evaluate, and create. Remembering level - Recall facts and basic concepts  Understanding level - Explain ideas or concepts Applying level -  Use information in new situations Analyzing level - Draw connections among ideas  Evaluate level - Justify a stand or decision Create level - Produce new or original work  On  the other hand, the DOK is a wheel that has four levels: 1. Recalling - involves recalling information, such as a fact or term. 2. Skills/concepts - involves limited application of skills and concepts.  3. Strategic thinking - Deep understanding as exhibited through planning. 4. Extended thinking - Prolonged thinking to solve au...

 We learned a lot in class throughout the week. On Monday, Ms. Lauren met with us via zoom, she gave us lots of wise thoughts or lessons for us to learn and to think about. On Wednesday for class, we were on zoom! During the zoom meeting, we broke out into zoom rooms in groups to complete an activity. We also discussed objectives and standards and how to create them in a lesson plan. I like how we didn't have any other class on that day, it was beneficial for me to have a break from classes. I also liked having the opportunity to meet Dr. Hye Ryung Won's cat. IT WAS SO CUTE!  Friday, we talked about how lesson planing contains observations and how they are used. This will be useful to me in my future for teaching and will help me with observing the children. I will also know how to change or alter a lesson from learning this lesson in class.
