Fall+2015+Team+4

You will use the PBI process to develop your project.
====Be sure to design toward your rubrics for your 5 minute video and 8-10 page paper.====

**I. PBI Planning Draft of your INITIAL PBI plans. Collaboratively with your partner, complete the following questions by September 29. Write your answers here on the wikispace under each question below. If you don't some of the answers yet, share what you can at this point. **


 * What is your compelling question? How does using Plickers increase student's comprehension test scores?


 * What initial ideas do you have for your PBI? Comparing hand written test scores to scores compiled with Plickers. Using Plickers to asses and better target areas of need within the class.


 * What is your target age group? First Grade

C: Reading Comprehension P: Using paper tests comparing to electronic tests. T: Plickers. CCSS.ELA/Literacy. RL.1.1 Ask and Answer Questions about Key Details in a Text. About Three Weeks. Interview students about their feeling on test taking to prove comprehension. Interview students about their knowledge of Plickers. Students read the text and complete lesson. Students take the paper test mid week and the Plickers at the end of the week. Interview students about their thoughts on Plickers and reading comprehension. Use the Plickers data to alter the next weeks assignment, in order to test what students are lacking. To best understand the data we will compile three tests worth of data. We will read both tests to the students and this will also show how students listen better with tech. Plicker cards, Iphone/ IPad, computer, brightlinks (board), a class set of story (3), paper test (3), Plicker version of test (3), plickers website. Student interviews and questions before the project and after the project. Class cooperation, school expectations cooperation, training the kids to use plickers. Teach the student how to use Plickers a week in advance with simple test questions. Notify administration of the PBI project and bribe our students to encourage cooperation. How do you get first grade students to answer interview questions in detail? Is it even possible? :)
 * Think about TPACK. What content will you focus on? What pedagogical approaches will you use? What technologies will you use?
 * What specific Common Core or Essential Standards learning objectives will your PBI address?
 * What is your timeline for implementing and completing your PBI?
 * What materials and resources do you need to be successful?
 * What part of the PBI do you find or anticipate will be most difficult to plan?
 * How do you plan to prepare to overcome these anticipated difficulties?
 * What other questions do you have about the PBI project?

Hi! I like your compelling question. I'm not clear about the purpose of asking the students about "their feeling on test taking to prove comprehension." Can you explain? From my experience you never know what 1st graders will say. I think asking them if they liked the activity will be good. What part did they like best.

Let me know if you have questions. Hiller 9/30/2015 What type of research do we need to include in our paper?

Use the rubric in the ECI 546 syllabus to write your report to. You can use the categories in the rubric as your subheadings. Hiller October 6, 2015
