Testing

 Testing:

The testing process worked really well. 



Students came to class and shared their builds.  All the other students used the feedback form they created while each person presented.  They then gave the presenter their feedback form.  Each student had lots of feedback and each time the students were instructed for the comments section to give positives, explain their scores, and give suggestions.


I did follow-up questions once the activity was over to see how the students felt and what they learned.  I was pleased to see that most of the students now had a better understanding of what feedback is, how to use it, and how to do it in a mature way. 


 I struggled with getting all my students to do the testing process due to covid cases.  My school had to shut down two days prior to our Spring Break which is when we planned to do our presentations.  We also had people choose to self quarantine so they could go on there break out of state.  So what we did for those that were willing was to have them send in pictures and I would show them to the class.  I sent the feedback comments from the classes discussion back to them and they made their adjustments that way.

Prototyping

  Prototyping : My prototyping phase was aimed to make the students be involved as much as possible.  In doing so I was hoping for more buy in to the test and having higher achievement or outcomes in my results.  I combined the use of a story titled, The Junkyard Wonders and the movie, The Lorax to make an Earth Day celebration/project.  I had the students come up with the criteria for how the project would be graded.   ~Must only be used from thrown out or recycled materials (repurposed materials).   ~Must be weatherproof.   ~Must be free standing/self supported.   ~Must be 1-2 feet in size (length/width/height).   ~Must look like the Lorax.  ~ Must use creativity.   Using this information they were given a week and a half to construct a Lorax figurine and create a slogan based upon the character traits they identified.  I found that this process held true to the ideas of prototyping in that it...

Define the Problem

  Define : Here I made a 9 question survey that I gave to my students.  This was given so I could gain an understanding of their knowledge or misconceptions.  Here is a link to the report and in the report a link to the survey I used.  The results showed me that the students mostly thought of feedback as a rating system.  Most of them explained that they gave feedback when rating a game or app.             What this allowed me to do was to define the students level of understanding and tell me how to move forward.  Essentially they had little understanding that the survey showed they were confused at best.  Some of them would answer a question that showed a solid understanding and then later that same student showed a lack of understanding.   I sought to start showing them different types, defining feedback, giving examples, and having them practice using it. But, I first need to see where the breakdow...
