Learning Outcomes for Student Creator
|
| |
|
| |
|
 |
Design an Xpression which clearly represented information about themselves. |
 |
 |
Demonstrate student understanding of Kahootz skills. |
|
| |
|
 |
Collaborative Potential
|
| |
|
| |
|
| |
Plus: |
 |
Sharing of work with another school. |
 |
Development of student's problem solving skills. |
 |
Students' excitement of sharing work with another school
working on the same project and at seeing the completed collaboration Xpressions.
|
 |
| |
Minus: |
 |
Some students did not complete Xpressions in time given.
|
| |
Interesting: |
 |
Some wanted to keep adding information over a longer time frame.
|
| |
Follow up activities from this collaboration: |
 |
Could develop into a 'pen pal' situation. |
 |
Could also do this with a school in another country/culture.
|
| |
Advice for another school contemplating this collaboration: |
 |
Allow plenty of time, especially if you want to use this as an ongoing project. |
 |
 |
Make sure students have ownership of the task - they need to know that another school is depending on them to complete the task. |
