Focus
Today we focused on the PBL for this marking period. Remember, all guidelines and materials can be found on Moodle. Students chose the topics they would research last week and brainstormed a bit with their teams on Monday (or at least those were my directions!). Students listened to another podcast today (link) that can be used for their research and PBL; we also looked over the articles in the AOW packet today (link)--students should read the article(s) that relate to their topic closely, i.e., annotate! Then we watched a video clip (not the whole panel discussion, don't worry!) of a hearing with expert testimony (link)--exactly the role they'll take for their PBL presentations. And finally, teams brainstormed the postives and negatives of each member's technology. Whew! It was lot to take in, but all this will help students' focus their thinking.
