Week 12 meeting - term 2

We had a short week last week, because of the rain and the weather conditions.We were  back to school on Thursday. 

Thanks for the constructive discussion we had last Thursday!  I would like to thank Oybek for sharing the summary with us.

Here is the brief summary of what we covered:

- Bilal shared with us how informing students about weekly learning objectives can be beneficial for their learning and motivation. He showed us a sample portfolio from one of his groups where students on a weekly basis add a divider page. On this page students write three learning objectives and during the course of the week they add their own work which reflects those objectives.

- Michael facilitated the discussion of the types of questions we can ask students to get their feedback about the activities and lessons. These questions can be asked in a plenary discussion or distributed to students in a form of a small survey (paper or e-versions). We can also put a "suggestion box" in a visible corner of the classroom where students can leave their comments in written form. If comments are in Arabic, our AAs can help with translation.
