Supporting Students During Online Instruction

4/9/2020

 

By Jazmin Cruz

Students can be supported synchronously or asynchronously during online writing instruction in the following ways.
  • Asynchronous instruction: Using self-monitoring of understanding is an important meta-cognitive skill for students. As an activity, you can get an understanding of each student’s progress by asking how confident they are in their understanding of a topic or concept. Do this activity after a new lesson. This can be a single sentence response in the chat box, a quick google form, or a ticket out the door using Flipgrid. Flipgrid is a great tool for students to self-monitor their understanding and teachers can gather information on students’ learning. Check out the activity below to get started. ​​​

  • Synchronous instruction: Chunk instruction into 5-10 minute blocks and allow students to use breakout rooms (with Zoom) for small group discussion. Students can pose questions, summarize what they learned, and reset before continuing. Teachers can also use Socrative for formative assessment. See what students understand and where they need additional help​.
