IU 13 LDC Webinar

  4. Goals for This Afternoon… • Review instructional considerations for teachers implementing LDC for the first time. • Introduce tips, including the use of a writer’s notebook as a guided way to lead students through the module to successful completion of the task. IU 13 LDC Webinar

  5. Getting Started… • Check your task one more time- is it good to go? • How much support will students need to successfully complete the task? • How will students receive feedback at various stages of the process?  • How will students demonstrate that they clearly understand what the task is asking them to do prior to writing? • How will reading be scaffoldedfor my students? • What note-taking method will students use, and does that method align with the writing task? • How will students make the transition from the reading to the writing? IU 13 LDC Webinar

  6. Instructional Considerations • Check your task one more time- is it good to go? Challenging but manageable for your first attempt? Task 23 Template (Informational or Explanatory/Comparison L1, L2, L3):  What adaptations do crocodiles have that have allowed them to survive for so long?  After reading a variety of informational texts, write an essay that compares ancient and modern crocodiles. L2 In your discussion, address the credibility and origin of sources in view of your research topic. L3 Identify any gaps or unanswered questions. http://www.pdesas.org/module/content/resources/20205/view.ashx Task 11B (Informational or Explanatory/Definition L1, L2):  After researching the provided resources on organ transplantation, write an essay that defines organ transplantation, explains reasons for requiring a transplantation, and explores medical issues involved with this process.   Support the discussion with evidence from the research.  L2 What implications can you draw? http://www.pdesas.org/module/content/resources/20259/view.ashx IU 13 LDC Webinar

  7. Instructional Considerations • How much support will students need to successfully complete the task?Review the skills list with your students in mind. • What parts of the process can be completed independently (during or outside of class)? • What parts of the process represent new learning or substantial challenge and warrant direct instruction or guided practice during class? • Do students have the resources they need? How might you structure the process? • Can you enlist the support or collaborate with other teachers who also work with your students? Examples— “Flip” aspects of instruction, Project Planning tools, Writer’s Notebooks IU 13 LDC Webinar

  8. Flip It! • You could flip class time and homework- this can help you accomplish more in less time and provide extra support. Gathering Evidence/Citing Sources http://learnzillion.com/lessons/1469-gather-evidence-and-cite-sources History https://flippedlearning.eduvision.tv/ajax/../Default.aspx?q=N1VVbOR2eYOoKzuYuAktvA%253d%253d#.UHXetv1ytDM.email Chemistry https://flippedlearning.eduvision.tv/ajax/../Default.aspx?q=X3Y5NcZVhaBe9qL3mhcmkQ%253d%253d#.UHXhU4oMTXs.email Tip: Most teachers who assign video tutorials/ screencasts require that students take notes and bring them to class for discussion. See webinar workspace for examples For more on flipping: http://flippedlearning1.wordpress.com/ IU 13 LDC Webinar

  13. Make the Task Visible • How will students demonstrate that they clearly understand what the task is asking them to do prior to writing? • Post the task in your classroom at the beginning of the unit of study. • Provide the task on a handout or note-taking guide for students. • Collaboratively read the task and highlight key words or phrases. • Ask students to brainstorm and list what they need to do be successful on this task/assignment. • Revisit the list as you progress through the implementation of the task. IU 13 LDC Webinar

  14. Help Students “See” What Success Looks Like • Make sure students know how they will be assessed. • Share the rubric by using a student paper and “marking up” what the student did that “met expectations.” Color code or use language of rubric. • Help students translate the rubric in their own words.

  16. Instructional Considerations • What note-taking method will students use, and does that method align with the writing task? • Organize both side of the argument • Collect and organize relevant info • Aid in citing sources and avoiding plagarism (See webinar resources) IU 13 LDC Webinar

  17. Organize the Writing Process • Consider providing a two column note-taking guide or table to make it easier for students to “see” both sides of the argument. • Make sure students have a way to keep track of where they got their information on their notes. IU 13 LDC Webinar
