MINI WHITE BOARDS
*Microlesson*

I LOVE them & hence made a microlesson for teachers.

There are tons of other resources to learn how to use them, this is a quick overview, inspired by a thread by @adamboxereducation.bsky.social (linked in the microlesson too.

3/4:The third one-pager in the series is ‘Formative Action: A feedback Framework’. This is an 8 step framework in which students play an active role in the feedback process by building in opportunities for them to act upon the feedback in each step @rkneyber.bsky.social @blancawildelopez.bsky.social

This is the second one-pager, @mrdownesteach.bsky.social about the execution principles of formative action. This overview will help you not only know more about what formative action is, but also translate into actionable steps. A great way to dive into formative action. #formativeaction #learning
2/4: The second one-pager is the ‘Execution principles for formative Action’. These 10 principles will help students take an active role in their own learning through actionable steps for improvement. Interested? Please Repost for a copy @rkneyber.bsky.social @blancawildelopez.bsky.social

Thanks so much, @MrDownesteach! It’s been a blast! This one-pager will help many teachers and school leaders learn more about what formative action is. Spread the word!
1/4: It has been a pleasure to collaborate with @rkneyber.bsky.social and @blancawildelopez.bsky.social from @Toetsrevolutie on summarising the key ideas of their incredible book Formative Action. The first of our 4 one-pagers is a 'Teaching and Learning Map'
