Students

Dealing with divesified students can be challenging but its never boring. I try to be active and teach to all. I try to employ different medias to get my Objective across and consistently do formative asscessments. I like the idea of Minute papers. It keeps the sleepy head distracted cell phone users on their toes and appeals to those that are in the groove.

Having students diagram what they learn.

I find that having students draw diagrams of what they learned to be a successful formative assessment tool. I use this tool for feedback to me to either slow down or speed up my curriculum. It's interesting to have the students demonstrate their work on the board in front of their peers and encourages mastery and constructive criticism alike. Above all it's active and fun at the same time.
