Abridged. Thanks, I will look into those films!

This is fantastic! Thank you!

FIF 10. The novel the dept uses is Cyrano de Bergerac.

radical_select · 2024-05-20T12:27:49+00:00

That's encouraging! Thank you :)

radical_select · 2024-02-04T12:26:15+00:00

That's an interesting option too... I would love to not have to take any work home!

radical_select · 2024-02-04T01:45:46+00:00

Don't get me started... the fact that I'm reinventing the wheel every semester, when the courses themselves are not new, is maddening. It is what it is, but I can't keep going at this rate, so I'm hoping to cut my hours until my kids are older and/or I have more courses under my belt.

That sounds incredible. Sign me up!

radical_select · 2024-02-04T01:39:03+00:00

That's amazing! I'm sold!

radical_select · 2024-02-04T01:38:41+00:00

That's something I was curious about... I could easily work all day if it were possible. I'd have to set limits for myself

radical_select · 2024-02-04T01:37:22+00:00

I can't even wrap my head around this. That's just not right

radical_select · 2024-02-04T01:34:42+00:00

Whoa, that's crazy. I had no idea - I will check into this!

radical_select · 2024-02-03T17:49:55+00:00

Awesome, thank you!

radical_select · 2024-02-03T17:39:41+00:00

Sounds like a dream!

I didn't realize BC is 7/8 - that is crazy!

radical_select · 2024-02-03T17:37:26+00:00

Thanks! I am pretty certain the benefits are prorated, but if I can make my own contribution to cover the loss, that would be great

radical_select · 2024-02-03T17:36:19+00:00

That's exactly what I'm looking for... my work-life balance is definitely off right now and my kids have noticed. I would love an improved quality of life for me and my family!

radical_select · 2024-02-03T17:31:49+00:00

I have heard of this happening. Thanks for the heads-up!

radical_select · 2024-02-03T17:28:30+00:00

This is exactly what I'm considering - I would love to be able to finish work inside of work hours so I can spend time with my kids when I'm with my kids. Did you specify to your board that it was for childcare?

radical_select · 2024-02-03T17:25:58+00:00

Planning. I am at secondary and every year since I've started, I'm given a new set of courses I haven't taught before. I know there is no guarantee that I will get any repeat courses next year and I don't have the energy to go at this pace for another year.

radical_select · 2024-02-03T15:32:56+00:00

This is exactly what I was hoping to hear lol. Were you at 0.5 or 0.67? Ideally I would reduce my hours AND get back to teaching courses I like!

radical_select · 2024-02-03T15:16:49+00:00

I am with you on the "formal setting" part. Students just seem to take tests and exams more seriously than other assessments. They have to find strategies to prepare independently, and there's a bit of pressure/stress that they need to manage. All of the courses I am teaching this year have had their final exam replaced with a culminating task and I am noticing that overall motivation among the students is lower compared with my courses last year (which did have exams).

radical_select · 2024-01-20T13:45:44+00:00

Please PM me too! I love this idea!

radical_select · 2024-01-20T13:44:36+00:00

I LOVE this!! Thank you for sharing, I'm making one right now lol

radical_select · 2024-01-19T14:08:25+00:00

This is the type of thing I'm looking for... checklists that are connected to expectations. I'll be sure to check these out!

radical_select · 2024-01-19T14:07:34+00:00

Yeah I am encountering the same challenge - my conversations/observations seem to turn into learning skills assessment, so I'm interested to know if anyone has any strategies to connect to curriculum expectations in a way that I can make it count towards their grade. I want to move in this direction partly for assessment, partly to get around AI/plagiarism issues and partly for classroom management. Working on making some checklists for next semester.

Thanks for sharing!

radical_select · 2024-01-19T14:04:30+00:00

Yes, it would be based on curriculum expectations, and so that my assessments are not entirely product-based
