C65: Using Split-Screen Teaching to Spark Learning Goals - a podcast by Lu Gerlach

Once you have a solid understanding and use of split-screen teaching, you will be prepared to turn the ownership to your learners.  Our ultimate goal with the PYP and a part of good teaching practice is developing learner independence. We can use split-screen teaching to support this process by having learners create their own goals by using the ATL sub-skills as their success criteria.

A success criteria is a set of goals we want learners to engage with that will lead toward achievement and mastery.  Some success criteria can focus on year long goals, while others can be for a unit of inquiry.  This is up to you and your learners.

For this episode, I will focus on how to make learning goals while using the ATLs as a success criteria for a single unit.  This will be easier to do at first, then you can lengthen your goals accordingly.
