The idea of using the project model instructional technique represents a logical step to providing my students with a rich experience that includes the opportunity for 'deeper learning' and increased enthusiasm for my chosen field of expertise.
I am having trouble identifying all of the student and teacher expectations. This is what I have so far:
Student Responsibility:
Manage project timeline and meet deadlines
Pose thoughtful questions to peers and teacher
Journal
Research
Collaborate
Maintain enthusiasm
Take advantage of technology resources.
Teacher Responsibility:
Maintain Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills Alignment
Define expectations
Produce and provide a reasonable project timeline
Assist students in time management
Pose thoughtful questions
Facilitate product testing
Provide technology resources.
Parent Responsibility:
Assist student in managing time and meeting deadlines
Pose thoughtful questions to student
Review student work and provide thoughtful feedbackProvide technology resources (where feasible.)
Can you suggest additional responsibilities?

I like the use of the word responsibilites. It makes it clear that the project is not just busy work but well planned and organized.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you have a good grasp of all the Responsibilities necessary for this type of system.
ReplyDeleteOne thought I have is that the Teacher may need to help in the maintaining of enthusiasm in the project.
