From Cathy Poplin: This is so exciting to see the value of the Intel Teach Courses! Thanks to Ann Lumm for her work and the teachers at Isaac for all of your hard work. Your students will be the main benefactors of all of this! Made me really think about higher-order level thinking in the classroom How to effectively plan a unit using Intel I learned that these on-line tools are easy to implement in a classroom. Great Intel tools Overall, good experience Wow, love the info...I'm really excited to go back and work on my unit. I also want to go over the rest of the tools. Wonder! When can we finish the next 16 hours? I learned how to write a unit plan to promote deeper thinking. I love the visual ranking activities. Found lots of cool websites. Utilize online tools Incorporate IDEAL and other websites into instruction A new way to write a unit Great way to get ELD students involved. Great resources and links I learned that you can create a simple visual ranking tool online for any subject area. I understand the difference between essential, unit, and content questions. I learned, explored and implemented resources through the new websites you introduced Created assessments that can be used throughout the year I learned about many higher level thinking activities. I really feel I learned a lot. Re: the different types of questions and the categories they pertain to. I loved being able to a complete technology 9 weeks lesson outline that's usable. I really felt that the Visual Ranking Tool was awesome. I will go back and share it with my team. I learned how to develop a comprehensive unit, how to incorporate visual and seeing aids Things learned: Great websites, Thinkfinity, IDEAL, Rubistar, Intel project, Visual Ranking, etc... The Intel training was very educational in assisting me to focus on ways to incorporate higher order thinking to my future lessons. Great Unit plan template, IDEAL resources very useful Wow, can't believe how much I learned- All the different plans for teachers. I learned the different things to collaborate - how to get along with others. I learned about wikis, delicious, etc.
