For my second module, I wanted to focus on synthesizing information. Based on some of the learning that has happened this semester, I felt like this was a gap in my planning, and was something that would help my students gain a better understanding of all the content they had covered so far. There are two steps for this module, the first a formative activity, to kick-start and review their thinking, comprehension and understanding of both the course content and big ideas. The second a written response to summatively assess students understanding.
Here is the written plan for the module.
Here is a video, which completes an overview of my second module.
Shayna, the synthesizing information activity to be done in a group in your second module is excellent! Your teaching strategy is great! I like the giving of 4 key questions, guiding students to properly put the information, and doing reflections.
