Engage with Assessment (Jo Szoke - IATEFL 2022)
When we think of student engagement, it’s usually games and exciting activities that come to mind. No wonder why because as Barkley (2010, pp. xi-xii) puts it “competing for the attention of our students and engaging them in meaningful learning is a profound and ongoing challenge,” and games tend to always save the day. But how can we provide meaningful learning as well as an enjoyable experience? Assessment is perhaps not something you would instantly think of since most of us believe it is always teacher-focused and students simply suffer it through. But testing is not the only way to find out more about our students’ knowledge and progress. There are plenty of formative assessment techniques that are less intimidating and more informative than a simple test. Moreover, if we involve our students in the assessment and feedback process by giving them the opportunity to evaluate themselves and each other, you can lay the grounds for a more successful learning journey that engages your teenage students at the same time. In this practical workshop, I will demonstrate different formative assessment activities that can boost your students’ engagement and improve their learning competencies, such as critical thinking, learning to learn, communication, and collaboration. After each demo activity, we are going to think through which competencies the particular activity develops and how it engages students. There will also be room for further discussion on how these tasks can be tailored to your own context.

The lesson has students: 1) review their project by answering questions about progress, next steps, and sustaining impact; 2) celebrate their accomplishments as a team by recognizing contributions; and 3) revisit goals they set for themselves and make a new goal for personal growth. The lesson encourages students to continue developing leadership skills and applying them to help others in their community.
EQ=IQ
The document discusses the development of a personalized dashboard system to help users track and improve themselves over time. Key points:
- The creator originally wanted to build an online platform for people with similar interests but later shifted focus.
- They developed the idea for an "EQ Game" to be included in academics but then concluded a natural "version jumping" had occurred.
- The proposed dashboard system would allow users to track their habits, activities, what is in and out of their control, and how they spend their time over weeks/months to help them develop and change.
- The creator believes such a system could help users better retain lessons and teachings from personal development classes by implementing them in their daily lives
Cross curricular projects 2021
This document provides guidance for planning a curriculum embedded unit with real world connections using a project-based learning approach. It outlines key aspects of planning such an interdisciplinary unit, including developing an engaging driving question, launching the project, creating authentic products, incorporating showcases and field experiences, providing feedback and assessment, and considering next steps. Planning requires collaboration across departments to identify overlaps and ensure coherence, as well as outreach to experts and community partners to connect learning to the real world. The process emphasizes student agency, developing cultural and social capital, and creating value for an authentic audience.
Final project survival guide
This document provides guidance to students on how to successfully complete a group final project.

Working together as an organized, participatory team is key to finishing the final project on time.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
