When communication integrates more than one type of mode or tool to convey a coherent message, it is known as this.
This is called multi-modal communication.
What does "knowledge construction" entail, and how does it differ from mere knowledge reproduction?
Generating insights, not repeating.
How does effective feedback differ from simple praise, and why is it essential for students' learning progress?
What defines problem-solving, and its key characteristics?
What defines student use of ICT, and why is their control over it crucial?
In collaborative work, what does "shared responsibility" entail beyond simply aiding one another?
Describe the characteristics of interdisciplinary learning activities.
Combines content, ideas, or methods from various academic subjects.
What constitutes a learning activity being classified as long-term, and why is this duration important for students' self-regulation?
How can problem-solving tasks differ from other learning activities, and what is necessary for them to meet the criteria outlined in the rubric?
- Require tackling challenges with incomplete information.
- Prioritize problem-solving as the main activity.
- Assessment is based on meeting rubric criteria.
How does ICT support knowledge construction, according to the rubric?
This involves considering what tools the audience has access to or uses regularly, as well as the formality or informality of language, when communicating with a specific group.
How do students apply their constructed knowledge in new contexts, according to the text? Provide examples to illustrate this process.
Applying knowledge:
Describe the elements involved in students planning their own work, and explain why it is more than just making decisions about small aspects of tasks
What distinguishes real-world problems, and what are the key elements that define them?
Give examples of direct and indirect ICT support for knowledge construction.
Define "substantive decisions" in the context of students working together, providing examples for each category: content, process, and product.
Substantive decisions are decisions that shape the content, process, or product of students' collaborative work. Examples include:
How does engaging in an application of knowledge in a new context deepen students' understanding of core principles? Provide examples to clarify.
How do learning goals and success criteria contribute to students' ability to assess their own progress and quality of work? Provide examples to illustrate.
Provide examples of activities that qualify as innovation according to the criteria outlined in the text.
When is ICT deemed necessary for knowledge construction?
According to the text, what qualifies as shared responsibility when collaborating with individuals outside the classroom environment?
Shared responsibility: all parties accountable for outcome.
Define the skills associated with knowledge construction, often referred to as "critical thinking," and provide examples for each: interpretation, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation.
How can educators effectively incorporate student feedback into the revision process to promote meaningful learning outcomes?
Share an experience from the classroom where you involved in problem-solving or innovation, and explain its significance.
How does the rubric emphasize real-world application of students' ICT designs?
Authenticity requires:
