I have come back on our Cohort 21 site and am noticing a rash of activity over the past day or two as our deadline for action plans approaches tonight. \u00a0I am glad to see that I may not be the only one who has taken a wee bit of a hiatus from posting. \u00a0I have been less than faithful to my blog over the past couple of months and must do something to remedy that.<\/p>\n
In thinking about an action plan that would be engaging for me I have kept coming back to using technology in formative assessments. \u00a0There is an interesting website for languages, Duolingo<\/a>, that uses an algorithm where students get reminded of topics they were weaker at or haven\u2019t looked at recently. \u00a0I think there are so many topics for my senior science students that they learn and then forget about again (maybe even over the hour-long lesson) that there must be something I can do about it.<\/p>\n So when I think about an action plan and I let myself feel the freedom that has been granted us by our Cohort21 co-conspirators I am still, in all honesty, left wondering if I should be asking a question, musing about or creating a concrete task for myself. \u00a0As I can\u2019t write algorithms and am still working on my blogging abilities I think my best approach for now may be asking a question . . .<\/p>\n Is there a way to maximize learning and retention while minimizing relearning and information loss? \u00a0How can technology help with this?<\/p>\n . . . let\u2019s see where this takes me.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I have come back on our Cohort 21 site and am noticing a rash of activity over the past day or two as our deadline for action plans approaches tonight. \u00a0I am glad to see that I may not be the only one who has taken a wee bit of a hiatus from posting. \u00a0I … Continue reading “Relearning – a colossal waste of time?”<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":60,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"wds_primary_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-29","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cohort21.com\/bradbohte\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cohort21.com\/bradbohte\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cohort21.com\/bradbohte\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cohort21.com\/bradbohte\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/60"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cohort21.com\/bradbohte\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=29"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/cohort21.com\/bradbohte\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cohort21.com\/bradbohte\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=29"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cohort21.com\/bradbohte\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=29"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cohort21.com\/bradbohte\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=29"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
