Avaliação - Metodologia Manna
Overview of the Evaluation Process
Introduction to Evaluation
- The term "evaluation" is emphasized over "grades," indicating a focus on the process with students rather than traditional grading methods.
- The speaker introduces the platform's methodology, referred to as "metodologia maná," which is integral to the teaching journey.
Managing Classes
- Teachers can manage multiple classes; visibility depends on how many classes they have registered in the system. For example, Professor José has two classes displayed.
- A button labeled "gerenciar" (manage) allows teachers to configure evaluations for their respective classes. This step is crucial for setting up assessments related to drone activities.
Setting Up Teams
Team Formation
- The first step in evaluation involves forming teams within the bootcamp context, where all students will be listed alphabetically for selection. Teachers are encouraged not to mix different class groups during this process.
- Teachers can create team names and descriptions, fostering creativity among students while assigning them into groups like “equipe meninos voadores” (flying boys team). This promotes engagement and ownership of their learning experience.
Addressing Concerns About Team Division
Individual vs Team Assessment
- A teacher raises a concern about evaluating younger students who may not be able to participate in team-based assessments due to their age and reading skills; alternative assessment methods are suggested instead, such as photo submissions from activities.
- It’s clarified that while teams can enhance collaboration, teachers have flexibility in choosing whether or not to divide students into teams based on their specific classroom dynamics and needs.
Editing Missions
Mission Setup
- After forming teams, teachers proceed to edit missions associated with each bootcamp session; there are at least four encounters planned throughout the course structure. Each mission represents a task or activity for students related to drone operation and simulation games.
- Teachers have control over when missions are released based on whether they have completed corresponding lessons with their students, ensuring alignment between instruction and assessment tasks. Instructions can also be provided alongside missions for clarity on expectations.
Importance of Communication
Teacher Guidance
- Emphasis is placed on clear communication from teachers regarding mission availability; if missions aren’t activated by instructors, students may feel lost without guidance on what tasks they need to complete next. This highlights the importance of proactive teaching strategies in managing student progress effectively.
Flexibility in Mission Execution
Adapting Assessments
- Teachers are reminded that it’s acceptable if they cannot cover all planned missions within a given timeframe; quality over quantity should guide their approach—if only two out of four missions were completed successfully, that’s still considered an achievement rather than failure.
Understanding Rubrics
Final Evaluations
- The final component involves filling out rubrics after completing all missions; these serve as formal evaluations of student performance across various tasks undertaken during the bootcamp sessions.
Student Interaction with Platform
Student Experience
- Students will use a unique code provided by teachers to access an online platform where they can track progress through points earned and badges received upon completing tasks.
Engaging Students Through Feedback
Continuous Improvement
- As part of ongoing assessment practices, feedback mechanisms allow students not only to evaluate themselves but also provide peer reviews post-completion of certain activities—this encourages reflection and collaborative learning experiences among peers.
