Week+6-F500


 * Laurie's Labs (2 sections)**

1. Reviewed SNOWY. 2. Walked through a personal case and filled out the template as a group (I'm trying to teach my w200 students how to create concept maps) 3. Briefly demonstrated Inspiration (Tues. lab only). Thursday lab had a few minutes to play around with Inspiration. 4. Walked through the Odyssey case as a class. 5. Demonstrated and explained Google Docs. 6. Split up into groups by subject area. One person in each group was the "Google Doc Leader" and had to paste in the template, invite the other team members, and invite me to the page. 7. Students had approximately 45 minutes to work on their Artifact proposal.


 * Serdar (2 sections)**
 * 1) Explained and answered questions about Artifact Proposals and Case Artifacts
 * 2) Reviewed writing objectives because they did not show a good understanding of writing objectives in their lecture worksheets
 * 3) Reviewed SNOWY
 * 4) Walked through the Odyssey case as a class.
 * 5) Practiced the SNOWY using Google Documents in groups of 3.
 * 6) First section had about 30 min. to work on their Artfiact proposal and 4 groups were able to present it to the class. I realized that 30 min. was not enough. Therefore, in my second section, I gave them more time to work and did not do the presentation. I will give them feedback on their documents and I will show one of the documents as an example and point out my feedback next week.

I lectured a lot in this session and I noticed it was hard to follow. I had them turn of their monitors when I was explaning so that they were not distracted.


 * Sinem's 6th Week:**

** I covered SNOWY process step by step. For each step we worked on different examples. At the end, I modeled SNOWY process using an example. **

 * 5) Today’s workout with SNOWY**:

=

 * I divided the class into groups based their subject area. The groups were consist of 3-4 students. I assigned one manager for each group, who would be the owner of google docs document. I made the managers to share the document with other members. Therefore, all of the students worked separately in order to edit their groups' document. I observed that they really liked working in collaborative groups. Each group created "their own artifact" at the end, which is really good. **======

** I shared some of the best examples of digital stories at the end. **
Zihang Two Sections:


 * I specified the requirements of PDP #1 based on some students' questions. Make sure every student in the lab had no question about what should be done before November 16.
 * Introduced the contents in Unit 2 and gave an brief introduction of artifact proposals and case artifacts.
 * Explained SNOWY process and answered questions students had.
 * Emphasized how to write a clear objective based on problems reflected on students' lecture worksheet 6.
 * Modeled the whole process how to write up an artifact proposal using the Odyssey case.
 * In OPTIONS section, grouped students and every group presented their option and explained why they chose it. Students like this part very much. They learned from each other during the process and supported each other when presented their option. Also they learned how to think about and find good resources for teaching the lesson.
 * Introduced Inspiration tool to students. Demonstrated how to use Inspiration to create a diagram and export it to a word file.
 * Wrap-up. Specify the assignments for next lecture and lab.

Minjing
 * House keeping: PDP. I explained the grading policy and how to revise the goals if they want me to work with them individually.
 * Proposal vs. Artifact: I explained the difference between proposal and artifact from several ways. And I also explained the process from being given a case to finally creating an artifact out of a proposal
 * SNOWY proposal template: I showed the class the SNOWY proposal template and explained how to answer those questions on the template.
 * Sample SNOWY proposal: Based on a standard, I created a sample SNOWY proposal and showed and explained what I put into each section in the proposal template.
 * Objective: After I explained how to work with template, we worked together as a class to identify conditions, performance and criteria out of a set of objectives chosen from students' worksheets.
 * SNOWY group exercise: I provided the students with a case and a standard, and asked them to form into a group of no more than 3 students to work collaboratively on a Google document to finish a SNOWY proposal exercise. The link of the Google document was uploaded to Oncourse Assignment as the workout for today. At the end of each section, a group of students volunteered to present their proposal to the whole class and I provided them with feedback on site.
