What
do you think the objective is?
I observed the same lesson given four times during one
school day. The objective for the lesson
was “Students will work in groups of four to begin researching/learning about a
topic that they chose on plate tectonics.”
What
level of Bloom’s Taxonomy is that?
Analysis
How
will you assess it in 10 minutes or less?
A lesson like this would most likely be assessed
informally through teacher observation and questioning. In my observations, the teacher was going
around to each group of students to assess the progress they were making with
their research. She was asking them what
topic they chose, what resources they were using, and what information they had
found. In doing this she was able to
offer them help on the spot if they were stuck or had any questions.
The
following quiz could have been used to assess this lesson:
