Case study 2: Teaching in a Station Rotation model at KIPP LA
In terms of me explaining my job I say that, I don't teach as much as I am guiding them to become better people.발음듣기
Well, the learning is of course primary, but I come in with knowing these are gonna be transformational leaders of change.발음듣기
And they need to know math, and they need to know measurement, and that's what gets me at the end of the day.발음듣기
My role as a blended learning teacher is a little different in three main ways, I would say.발음듣기
First, I'm able to spend a lot of time doing small group instruction, while my students are interacting with adaptive learning programs.발음듣기
And third, I'm able to maximize my impact by collecting data and having students interact with technology as we integrate it into the core curriculum.발음듣기
So I'm able to have students take quizzes online, and I get instant feedback about how they've mastered the standard that day.발음듣기
Or when my students are publishing their papers for writing, rather than writing it out in black pen, they're able to type it up just as they will in high school, and college, and in life.발음듣기
As we shift to looking at KIPP LA, what we see and what jumped out to us was that teachers there are really focused around three things in their new roles as blended learning teachers.발음듣기
And the third one is that they actually still take the best of traditional teaching, and weave it into these new blended learning environments.발음듣기
So to that point of their Holy Grail, it is small group instruction, and it's an interesting story of how they came to this focus of blended learning, in many ways because of budgetary pressures that force them to think about new models.발음듣기
Beyond that though, it's also fascinating to see how much they've embraced this role of small group instruction, and that for them, they just see the gains from this amount of time far outpacing any other thing they could do as part of their educational model.발음듣기
We believe in small group instruction because it allows for one-on-one conversations for so much language practice, and for repeated hits with a skill, so that students are able to get to mastery even faster.발음듣기
Clearly many teachers around the country are already doing small group instruction, or what we call a workshop model.발음듣기
But what's different in blended learning is that rather than just being rotations through worksheets, or other assignments that may or may not be connected to an individual's needs, because students are working online, can really focus and tailor that instruction to the individual student's needs.발음듣기
For my students it's especially essential that they get lots of practice with the language around whatever I'm teaching.발음듣기
So because they're in a small group, they're able to talk frequently, both to me and to partners, and I'm able to follow-up with them to make sure that they're using the academic language the way that they need to.발음듣기
So I'm able to interact with each student throughout the course of the lesson on an individual basis.발음듣기
As we go through the lesson, and I figure out which students are mastering the content quickly, which students need more reinforcement.발음듣기
I'm able to pull... I usually end up with a group of two to four students in front of me, just working with them to address any misconceptions they may have.발음듣기
So I'm able to have that powerful one-on-one impact, even when the classroom ratio is one to 27.발음듣기
So as KIPP, the teachers explicitly see their role as building the character and the value of their students.발음듣기
You cannot step foot on this campus without understanding how it permeates every part of their soul.발음듣기
And they wanna teach things like grit, determination, values, ganas, or desire for learning.발음듣기
We would argue that in blended learning environments, focusing on character and values is really important, because we're really giving the power to the students to be their self-directed learners.발음듣기
And we have four school values: Courage, ganas, honor, and reflection. Courage means to take risks.발음듣기
And when you don't make the right choice, which happens to all of us, is really turning it around.발음듣기
We really focus in on the values, and on this character development to make sure that our students are growing socio-emotionally.발음듣기
For us, the academics is what's gonna get our kids to college, but it's not gonna get them to and through.발음듣기
We really believe that it's gonna be the character, their character, that's gonna get them through college.발음듣기
So when you watch a KIPP classroom, when you see these KIPP LA schools, they're direct instruction, the moves they use are tight and purposeful.발음듣기
And it's that attention to detail that keeps the kids on the edges of their seats in the learning process.발음듣기
By the end of the lesson today, you will be able to measure objects in feet, or in inches. That is your first job.발음듣기
Your second job is to look at an object, and tell, "Should I measure this in feet, "or should I measure it in inches?"발음듣기
(students mumble) [Colleen] The other essential thing that you have to know before you measure, is what the halfway point is.발음듣기
