4 thoughts on “More and More and More on vPQA”
I sent Ben a mock up of a vPQA last week and I followed his instructions and tweaked it. Today I used the same PPT with all my levels and wow! The engagement was totally through the roof. Is it because it is new and different? Perhaps, but there was reaction to the images AND I think the supported output choices were huge. I took some suggestions from the kids to answer the question “when do you worry”? The pictures provide so many variables. Looking forward to more info. If anyone wants to see my first try, e-mail me and I will send. (chill1019@gmail.com)
Chill if you just mail it to me could I post the link here to make it easier? I don’t think I have seen the final version.
Thank you for testing the concept of output choices/responses. That is Julie’s idea to put them up there like that.
What a great question to ask when they worry. It is certainly a pre-AP strategy when you ask questions like that with supported responses and images to bolster the formulation in the student’s minds of their response. Not only that, our students are not stupid and would like to really know what their classmates say on that kind of question – it’s a human question and not a fabrication.
Thank you Brigitte and Carol for testing this.
I had a sit down with our library administrator today. and we went through my vPQA. I asked him about crediting my images. He told me that it is always a good idea to give an attribution if for no other reason than to be a good example for the kids. He said attribution for Google images is kind of a gray area and as long as I gave credit and was using the images for classroom use only and not for profit that he saw no problem with my slides. Same for the screen shots from the movies. Again, not for profit and the screen shots represent a very small percentage of the overall film. So on my end, I know my parameters – I can’t charge admission and or sell popcorn for my vPQA presentations! I would suggest that everyone talk to their library admin to see what they think. With all of that said, I will send Ben the vPQA!
I posted it already Chill. I really like it. I like the fact that you only targeted one structure – it seemed more user friendly. But I can also see targeting three structures in a 30 or 40 slide presentation as well (yours has 13 for one structure and seems to be a perfect number that would, I am guessing, lead by itself to at least 75 reps on “to worry”.) We really need to remember when we make this slide presentations to not mix targets.
On the copyright issue, I had heard some commentary here that leads me to remain suspicious about Google and copyright. The grey area just seems overly grey. If we are going to share these, and I hope enough people jump on board with it for next year, I feel that staying uniquely with Haiku Deck, even though it has less bells and whistles, is the best thing overall.
I might say that if I wanted my classes to gain command over that pesky pronominal (s’inquiéter), I would pay admission and buy popcorn to watch this very well done presentation!
