During my research this week I worked on learning what a
driving question is and how to properly write one. I found the Formulating Driving Questions
sheet to be very helpful to compare what I wrote to what is considered a “good”
question. I also looked at the Craft theDriving Question, which was a great check for understanding based on what I
learned. When learning a new concept I
like to have examples I can relate to and this site allowed me to look at
examples of good driving history questions.
By seeing examples of various history based questions I had a better
idea of how to start writing the driving question and sub questions.
The visual aide I created was on Padlet.com. This was my first time using this template
and when looking at the options I found this to be most visually
appealing. When I design lessons I like
to include photos and images to allow my students to have a visual of what they
are learning. I found Padlet easy to use
and I was able to insert images on each post.
One aspect I am still trying to figure out was the privacy
settings. I am working with Tim Stark on
our PBL and when I initially set it up I wanted to allow him access to
edit. At this point I believe anyone
with the link as access to edit (I could not limit it to just one person) so
that is the part I do not particularly like.
I would like to have more control and be able to share it with a select
group. I did like the option to scan a
QR code to access my tablet or phone.
This week was a time of revision for me personally. Hopefully what I bring to the table for Tim
and I will prove to a well-written question to allow our students to think
about the topic in a more in-depth level.
