Case: Interactive Notebooks-Completion Problems
This year I decided to have my science classes put together interactive science notebooks. They took spiral notebooks and created a table of contents in the front and then numbered each of their pages. Any notes that we took in class were glued onto the left side of their notebook. The right sides of their notebooks I asked them to basically summarize the notes from the left side. They could do this in a variety of ways, draw picture, write a story, create a concept map, etc. I don't care HOW they summarize as long as they ARE summarizing. We started out okay, but now I can't hardly get any of my students to complete their notebooks! I grade them every two weeks and it's rapidly becoming a waste of time to even collect them. I still like the concept but what can I do differently to encourage them to complete this? I take it as a homework assignment in my grade book.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
A possible solution is to make them more interactive. Having the students create a foldable is a good way to spark interest. Students can also complete an interactive experiment to log data in the notebook. The experiment will be a way to spark interest, while the notebook can still be used for an investigation. You can also try peer grading. Peers can exchange notebooks, and go over each other's notebook together. This will enable interactions with others, and peer feedback. |

| Comments: The use of interactive Notebooks can become boring to students after a while. Changing the format of the assignment will help the students to be more engaged in the activities. |
