I would ask the students to name a few of the important figures we have been studying. Once I see that the students know a few of the names of the important figures than I will introduce the review. I will pull up Quizlet and review with the students using the flashcards on Quizlet.

Type of session: Teacher-Paced Student-Paced
Identification of students: Students will log-in so their individual scores will be available to you after the session SRS activity will be anonymous Briefly describe what will happen during the SRS activity: The students will be using Quizlet to review important figures of World War II. The students will be able to play the different activities on Quizlet to help retain the information about important figures in WWII. The students will need Ipads or computers to complete the SRS activity on Quizlet. The activities on Quizlet should only take about the 20 mins. The teacher will give the students 20 mins to review the flashcards and play two of the activities on Quizlet. When the students are done with the activities they will flip their Ipads over or shut their computer to indicate that they have complete their activities. The teacher will than review the notecards and the corrects answers with the students. She will also allow them the opportunity to talk about what they thought of Quizlet. This is a great opportunity for the teacher to see what the students think of the resources she brings into the classroom. When the teacher is done reviewing the correct answers with the students she will than give them a quiz to test their knowledge on important figures in WWII. The quiz will take no longer than 15 mins. This will be great to take data to see how well students do when they use tools like Quizlet to review and understand 1 STUDENT RESPONSE AND ASSESSMENT TOOLS information.

See http://epltt.coe.uga.edu/index.php?title=Bloom%27s_Taxonomy Remembering Understanding Applying Analyzing Evaluating Creating Types of questions/prompts (Check all that apply): Multiple choice Multiple Select True/False Yes/No Short open-ended response or fill in the blank Longer open-ended response Provide samples of questions/prompts to be given to students: When was world war 2? 1939 to 1945 What side was the USA on? Allies Powers Who started the Nazi party? Adolf Hitler
Right/Wrong Answers: Will there be right/wrong answers to these questions? Yes No
Mixed (Some will have correct answers, others will not.) Immediate corrective feedback: Will you pre-select correct answers to some or all of the questions and display correct response to the class after the SRS activity? Yes No Why or why not? I will go over the correct answers with the students so that they will be prepared for the quiz after the activity. Use of data: What data will be collected as a result of this activity? How will it be used and by whom? (For example: Will information collected from this activity be used to award a grade? Will the individual information collected be shared with students and/or parents to help them monitor individual progress? Will you discuss the aggregate, anonymous data with the whole class to help them learn? Will you use data to differentiate instruction for students, if so describe how.) I will be able to collect data anonymously and individually. So I will see how the class did as a whole. I will be able to collect data on this to see what I need to focus on more or if I can move on from the important figures in the WWII. I will also be collecting data by grading their quizzes they take after the SRS activity. This will also show me how well they know the information and if we can move on or not. Describe what will occur after the SRS activity: After the activity we will go over the correct answers and then we will taking a matching quiz to see how well the students know their important figures of WWII. This will show me how helpful Quizlet was. Describe your personal learning goal for this activity. (For example: What are you trying that you have not tried before? What do you hope to learn from this activity? How do you hope it will help students learn? You must design something that will help you learn something new. Honor system!) : Im trying to see how well students will do on formative assessments when using tools like Quizlet to review for the formative 2 STUDENT RESPONSE AND ASSESSMENT TOOLS assessment. Im hoping this tool will help them a lot when studying for quizzes or test. Im hoping students will use this tool to studying for other subjects. Im hoping my students will use this tool outside of the classroom. Im hoping this tool helps reach all types of learners in my class. I want to bring different tools into the classroom that will help all of my different types of learners. Those are my hopes for using SRS. Other comments about your SRS activity (optional):
