We are all thinking of new experiences - camping on the return trip by car, mistakes made in a game or the emotions felt by completing a long-term project that took months to complete.

I have presented below 15 strategies for students to reflect on their learning. Presenting each strategy from the start can help ensure the quality of the work you want to do over the course of the year, and students will learn from it.

  1. Share-Present
    A classic method of learning is to put students in pairs, then verbally “share” something that will help them learn new content, deepen their understanding or review what they already know. This method can also be used as a quick and summary assessment tool, since conversations generally reflect a level of understanding that the teacher can use to assess mastery and plan the next step in teaching. Even a teacher should also guide a students about the arts & crafts goods.

  2. Phrase primers of synthesis
    Leader phrases are great because they are like training wheels - or, if you mix the metaphors, tools to train students to think and speak according to certain patterns. For example, you can implore students to “think critically”, but if they don’t even have the basic wording of critical thinking (for example, “It’s important because …”), thinking criticism will be beyond their reach.

  3. Content in several levels
    Multi-level text is something I have wanted to write about for years, but I never did. Multilevel content is a digital document filled with hyperlinks that allow you to pass almost any information: The questions that students ask themselves, the possibilities of deepening, unusual references and allusions that reflect the diagram used by students to make sense, etc.

By adding “levels” of meaning to a text through meaningful hyperlinks, students can think of anything, from a pre-assessment text that has demonstrated their lack of understanding, to a kind of ” tracking ‘what they learned, when and where.

  1. Tweet
    140 characters force students to think quickly and precisely, which is ideal for short moments of reflection or hesitant writers who find it difficult to produce relevant notes or write essays. In fact, you can combine twitter with the number 6 for exit records.

  2. The 3-2-1 method
    3-2-1 is an effective method of framing everything from pair- writing to writing (for example, have students write three things they think they know, two things they know they don’t know and one thing they know for certain on a pre-assessment and post-assessment (for example, list three ways your writing reflects mastery of skill X, two ways skill Y still needs to be improved and a way to reinforce your argument in the next five minutes) and to reflect on the post-assessment.

  3. Exit sheets
    They can be called exit sheets or end of course tickets. Asking students to leave a brief learning residue - a thought, a definition, a question - is a powerful teaching strategy even what kind of pencils should used by the students. In fact, “output sheet teaching” literally determines how I use data in the classroom. Asking students to leave a little reflection on the learning process in a chair near the door when leaving is a simple solution.

Some examples ?

How did you react emotionally to a problem you faced today?
What surprised you most about ___?
How has your understanding of _ changed today?
What about ___ that still makes you confused or curious?
7. Write about…
I like the easy ways for students to write asynchronously and collaboratively. And the writing fragments that students use don’t need to be synthesized: vocabulary and key phrases can help students think, but more importantly, as part of a writing exercise, they allow students to learn from each other because each of them is able to read the other answers before creating their own.
