PRE-WORK
To prepare for our time together, dedicate about one hour to complete 4 tasks by midnight on Tuesday, August 10, 2021:
TASK ONE
Set aside about 15 minutes to watch this video playlist.
TASK TWO
Complete these two self-test activities:
TASK THREE
Consider some skills that you currently teach (or would like to), and select a relevant objective (1A, 1B, etc.) from the Guidelines for Primary Source Literacy. Use this objective as the basis for writing two different learning outcomes:
- one simple, straightforward learning outcome that can be easily scored, counted, etc.
- another more complex, abstract outcome that would require more subjective analysis or a rubric to grade
Share your outcomes anonymously here.
TASK FOUR
Finally, share your anonymous reflections in this very quick, two-question Google form.
See you soon!
