I confess, I am not naturally one to take a stand publicly... hence some discomfort arises for me as I write this blog. Today, I go out on a limb a little bit.
My stand today is the curmudgeonly one... I wonder what happened to the initiatives we adapted the College of Education over the last few years. I wonder what's going to happen with the writing rubric we developed a couple years ago. How are we using the Learning-Centric Education Model that we adapted last year?
Several faculty members did a great deal of work developing the writing rubric. It would be a great little research project to assess how it's being implemented and its effectiveness. Heck, we could use the Learner-Centric Education Model to look at the state of our writing initiative. It would be good to see the Learner-Centric Education Model in action. How are we addressing the issues of metacognition, dialogue, scaffolding for differentiation, and data-informed decision making as we look at our writing initiative? Maybe a great deal is going on and I just missed it somehow. Looks like I have some questions to ask.
