Editor's Notes
- Introduction Judy Personal (from Henderson KY, my family, my nephew, my love for traveling – WDW, NOLA, Boston, Jamaica) Education (attended Catholic school 12 years, Vandy BS, USI MS, more to come) Experience (15 years in the same school I attended, 1 in 2nd grade, 10 in Kindergarten (full day, with aide), track coach, cheer coach, grant writing, enrollment committee) How I got to this point? (End of year discussion with principal 4 years in a row; he finally said… you’re doing it… here’s where you’re doing it… here’s what I think you should do… etc. – then he jumped ship!) Holly Personal (1 of 5 children, parents/educations, husband, children, family activities) Education (undergrad, masters, yearbook, math teacher) Experience (19 years, social studies, math) How I got to this point? (Judy said so. I’ve been rethinking that.)
- GBL is hot topic Interpreted differently Research says Article about gaming (video gaming, high tech) – GBL isn’t always that Today’s Catholic Teacher Jan/Feb 2015 Edition ASCD March 2015 Student empowerment, formative assessment, self reporting Be prepared – students who are good at traditional school may be annoyed Teach and reinforce skills Collaboration, problem solving, creativity, and communication Games as invisible assessments Immediate feedback Games vs gamification Failure is rarely an obstacle when playing a game, makes it okay to fail in the classroom (willing to try things they might not normally do) Marzano – using games showed 20 percentile point gain in achievement when used with purpose Game points are not grades – grades are not the reward; outcome of game should not factor into grades Bridges gap between what students place high value on and what we need them to learn In our classroom GBL is Engaging learner w/out them realizing it Used for review Helps us differentiate Gives students time to move, socialize,
