Inquiry Question 4

Begin to collect evidence and data  and come to the next session ready to share your preliminary findings about the nature and extent of the student challenge i.e. using your baseline student data and evidence.

I have collected evidence on the individual students on my class - blog post here.
I have collected historical data of Year 13 students doing NCEA Level 3 Design and Visual Communication - blog post here

Also, as part of my personal goals this year, I am looking at mindset as a barrier to learning - blog post about my goals here
As part of this, I have been lucky to have received input from Pippa Lawler from Mint Education. She gave me a growth mindset model questionnaire to do with students to see where their thinking is now and where it is later when I have done some work with them about this.
I gave these questions to my students today. Here are the results.

    Hi Karen, you have drawn from a range of sources to build a rich picture of your student’s learning. Particularly interested in the outcome of your focus on what you have learned about the impact of literacy and how it will strengthen analysis writing. Plus applying this to verbal literacy which you have identified will add real value in you previous post.

      Thanks Fiona. We are going to work on confidence and failing too which I am looking forward to. Two of them have been up to Glen Taylor and stood in front of approx 80 students talking about design. I was so proud of them. The whole class is going next term.
