I had never heard of Four Corners, I like that idea. SWOT is familiar and a useful activity in a variety of scenarios. Entry and Exit Cards are familiar and seemed to be the same as Bell Ringers and Exit Tickents? It is good to be reminded of the importance of focusing on the process rather than the outcome.
SWOT strategies help close gaps by providing flexibility and promoting equality. I already use exit cards, but I am going to incorportate Four Corners.
I used SWOT analysis in business administration and I have adapted it to my lesson plans and after lesson revisions. This has helped with stronger lesson development and revising my lessons to fit specific class style.
In marketing we frequently discuss the swot analysis, but I like the idea of changing t to tweaks because sometimes threats isn't the correct measure. I liked all of the ideas of the four corners, last concept standing, and the scenario cards. I've heard of exit tickets, but never thought of the bell ringer as an entrance ticket. Great concepts.
I learn that SWOT means strength, weakness, opportunties, threats. SWOT is use for review for performance testing and it also helful when attemptingto silve a problem. The key is to FOCUS ON THE PROCESS, NOT THE OUTCOME.
