Has quantum entanglement been observed?

When is Hypothes.is going to branch out into the business of professional readers to add aids to texts?! :)

This is supposed to be a privacy policy for completing a survey not a SaaS product?

Not only is the information held about me a 'transferable asset' but MARu group will charge you to find out what has been collected about you.

Transmission is at my own risk. So as a gesture of goodwill, if I complete the survey, my personal information will be transferred outside of EU and is at risk of being shared with third parties (unknown) and yet, I am responsible for the risk?

Why? I came across this privacy policy as I had been asked to respond to a survey about the website. Not only am I giving my feedback for free but then they want to take my personal information and give it away to unknown buyers and sellers (third parties) all of whom are fictitious and in the future?

This would be information outside of the use of the website? The phone number used to contact (via phone) Does that mean you are collecting information not from the site but any information that connects to the business?

It would be nice to know the criteria by which this evaluation was made?

Observations are here in this findings table.

Agreed. Do you think that at some point students could assess their own growth? Did you ask students to reflect on the this process? Do they see value in it? Are they able to point to moments in the process where they might have realized "before you spoke to me I realized that I ...."?

This is a challenge for me. I consistently have students who will not speak in class discussions, literature circles, or other group activities. There are work arounds for these students, but I am curious to know if you also have students who will not speak and what your response is.

This is terrific. It's necessary to include those norms or workflow or process pieces that support the learning but that aren't part of the learning goal. In fact, I wonder how often these related pieces become 1) the focus of the learning or 2) the reason why we don't use pedagogical approaches like workshop?

I bet I'm not the only member of your PLN who would love to see this process, Brian. Every year I think about videotaping my teaching. The benefits would be many, but one think the videos would capture are those establishing lessons: The setting of routines, generating success criteria, and other foundational lessons that we later circle back to and build on but that can become invisible.

So true. I have often considered the work we have done in the past eight years on success criteria as not only important for students to know where they are going, but equally important for teachers. Long before Growing Success (Ontario's Assessment and Evaluation Policy Document) made educators aware of the value of developing success criteria with students, I recall generating lists of criteria that I used when evaluating work so that I would evaluate the same things on each task. So, I would stay focused.

I am a big fan of student self-assessment; however, the skill required to assess oneself in speaking, presenting, and as a feedback provider needs to be highly developed. This is an area that students may not yet be able to adequately or appropriately assess themselves.

Who is "us"?

She is looking through the window at life outside.

The word transmission implies very much a learn/repeat flow where there is little input or exchange. When observations are taking place with anticipation of participating, children are strategizing efficient ways of obtaining a goal without repeating.
