Episode 5.6 Collaboration and Credit Recovery

Episode 5.6

Hello and Welcome to another potentially useful episode of the TCAPSLoop Podcast! I’m joined by TCAPS own Mentat, the Technollorgist, David Noller and special guest Mitch Heethuis, who directed TCAPS Credit Recovery Program this past summer. Mitch shares his insights on specially designed teacher created courses created on BrightspaceD2L, used for credit recovery. 

 

Moment of Zen

"The mystery of life isn't a problem to solve, but a reality to experience."

- Frank Herbert, 'Dune'.

 

The Agenda

• What was the goal when you started planning for last summer’s credit recovery courses?
• How did the COVID pandemic affect student success and/or participation in the summer courses?
• Who worked to develop these courses? 
• How effective were these courses? 
• Did you see a higher percentage of recovery in students in TCAPS built courses compared to other courses? Vice versa? 
• Can you talk about the variety of courses? Which courses were more difficult to implement with a technology-mediated experience?
• Did students prefer these over other available courses? (Edgenuity, etc.)
• How would you view the success of the summer?
• What needs to be different or be repeated?
• What important insights did you gain from last summer’s experience?

Thanks for listening and inspiring.
