Student voice

This week, after talking with Becca from Cognition I asked students for their thoughts on what was memorable so far in term 1, why it was memorable and what makes learning memorable? What really stands out for me is the relationships here e.g. working together, working with people outside of school, relationships with environment, connections and relationships to relevant learning experiences.



Next I need to formally define integrated learning.

Just some thoughts:


Capture a baseline – What was memorable about learning so far for kids? Why was it memorable? What makes learning memorable?

 

Key question perhaps – does an integrated curriculum make for a richer, memorable learning experience?

.

Before I start define integrated curriculum and define rich learning experience (use research to help with this)

 

Begin the integrated curriculum and capture evidence that matches how you have defined rich. Memorable learning experience.

 

Kids might make a personal diary to capture their learning (digital or paper).

 

Think about measurable progress both summative and formative?



Another tool I can use to collect student voice is this free Learner Voice Tool on Becca's website https://www.engaginglearningvoices.com/home

 

It will allow me to establish if they are engaged and if they know what they are learning. The way I collect data can be aggregated to show progress over time too. Might be worth a look. Scroll down to the learning part 3 and click on learner voice tool.
