A Review of Sabrina's Journey:
Sabrina's piece is nicely done. It is a short biography and glimpse into her history on her journey that led to where she is currently. She is showing where she was, where she went, but then ending in what truly defines who she is. She also uses a reoccurring theme, "Do I belong here?" throughout her video.
- Sabrina was born in Klawock
- She moved to Colorado for college
- She completed a teaching degree and is now back in Klawock
How Could I use this in my classroom?
1) As a documentary: possibly of their boat project and then comparing their original mathematical calculations to what actually happens in the water with their life size boat. Although a digital piece wouldn’t be required, a nice wrap up activity could summarize what was learned with a percentage for “creativity,” leaving the digital world wide open to students.
2) Teach the teachers: students pretend they are the teachers for 10 minutes to teach a certain concept to me- the kids could go wild and have fun with that project and true learning would occur because when someone understands something well enough to teach it, then they most likely have the concept now stored in their long term memory.
3) Grading using a rubric: I would have clear objectives on why I was assigning a certain project and have a clear rubric ready to go over before the project/assignment began to eliminate any confusion and to reign in those that would tend to wonder off topic.
