My English classes are going to present Google Slides for a research project culmination. I was wondering what other middle school teachers do to keep the rest of the students focused on the speakers. Do you have students evaluate other presentations? Take notes? Other?

We are using Flipgrid. Students do a gallery walk - virtually and have a checklist to help with comments. They need to make constructive comments on at least three. It saves precious time for instruction as presentations can take so long.

Thank you for your input!

I have my complete peer grading using the same rubric criteria I use! Tell them it’s for a grade and they’ll complete it.

Thank you for this tip.

My students take Cornell notes and grade on the rubric. Both using rubrics and note taking is new to them.

My kids really like using Cornell notes and if they fold their papers along the vertical line, they have what I call 'double-sided notes' and it becomes a study aid (questions on 1 side and the answers on the other).

How do you deal with teammates who don't take initiative or move things forward on a project without being told to do so?

We have a deliverable due on Friday with alot of things to get done before then and seems like no one cares? I ask for status updates and all I get is no, haven't done that, will do it now. Sure enough, ask next day and the response is no, haven't done it yet.

These folks are seniors as well. Partner looks to me to provide a status update, and all I can say is in process.

Hi IBM sharks 🦈

So I got interviewed for a project by the IBM team. The interviewer told me that its a go ahead from their end, now the client will assess my profile and if they too are fine with it, I will be onboarded?

Is it true that we have client interview as well? If yes then after how many days of interview by IBM team, client interview takes place?

Or its just that if the IBM team is fine with it, we are selected for the project?

Any inputs on this will really help :)

The skills & academic stamina of students in adv. classes are the lowest my colleagues and I have ever seen across ALL subjects. Students also seem not to care about the quality of their work, goal setting, & improvement like they did pre-C-19. Being back in person for a year has not erased the learning losses; in fact, this group is worse off than last year’s classes. Do you see this trend in your advanced programs? I wonder if it’s a district curriculum & philosophy issue or more widespread.

It’s like they are just waiting to write down what I tell them to. How do I get kids to think about what they are reading? How do I get them to do the work?
