Also, I know it says to record a lesson. However, I videoed myself interacting with small groups and literature circles where the learning was more student driven and I was more of a facilitator. I felt c...See More

Beth Special Needs Sorry for the blank post earlier. I just logged on to look for advice about the video portion of renewal. I want to show portions of whole group instruction that show different instructional strategies that I addressed in on of my PGEs. To do this, I will need to submit different segments of the same lesson. I'm nor sure how this will look in the ...See More

C4 Written Commentary and repeating myself

by Grace

Apr 1, 2017

On the written commentary there is a place to discuss trends and patterns from your summative assessment. The questions asked are basically exactly the same as what the summative assessment form asks for:

Written Commentary: What did your analysis of the results of the summative assessment tell you about where the students as a group are i...See More

Apettijohn "Data or other results from the assessment that illustrate
patterns, trends, or outliers in students’ responses (no
more than 2 pages)"

patterns or trends you discussed in the written

Amy I work with the Rotary, and I did say the name. If the name identifies your location, then I wouldn't use it. Abbreviate it.

Component 3 Video Editing with overlays?

by McG

Apr 18, 2017

Is it acceptable to include overlays in the video?

During my video I could not video the board and the students at the same time and we had some great discussions about some items on the board. I would love to be able to include a picture overlay of the board on the video so the judges can see what we were discussing within the video.
