This 8-minute "whiteboard" illustration style video covers 4 major incentives for students to think about workplace writing and communication. It addresses how writing impacts personal credibility, how writing is an overlooked but important “currency” of business, how writing shows critical thinking, and how writing magnifies workplace attributes. Use it to jump start thinking on how standard academic writing differs greatly from workplace writing, and why business communication is a critical skill.This resource was made possible by the Texas Tech University Libraries Open Educational Resources Adoption Incentive Grant.

This book is a free and open resource for composition instructors and students, full of essays that could supplement OER rhetoric and writing texts that lack readings. All of the essays in this reader are versatile rhetorically and thematically. It is arranged alphabetically by author name. Each essay has a series of hashtags that apply to the essay in some way. You can search for essays thematically for topics like education, the environment, politics, or health. You can also search for essays based on composition concepts like analysis, synthesis, and research. You can search for essays that are based on shared values, essays that rely heavily on ethos, logos, or pathos, essays that are very kairos-dependent, and essays that are scholarly.

This collection was created in Google Docs so that it is easily adapted and edited.

In this professional development session, we will develop a shared understanding of how formative assessment works and different approaches that have been developed. The material for this resource come from a series of PD sessions on formative assessment developed by the ACESSE team: Philip Bell, Shelley Stromholt, Bill Penuel, Katie Van Horne, Tiffany Neill, and Sam Shaw.We will be updating this Facilitator's Guide for ACESSE Resource A with the most up-to-date information about this resource over time.

The NRC Framework for K-12 Science Education and the resulting Next Generation Science Standards focus on an integrated three-dimensional view of science learning in which students develop understanding of core ideas of science and crosscutting concepts in the context of engaging in science and engineering practices.How is assessing three-dimensional science learning different than how we have thought of science learning in the past? How can we design assessment tasks that elicit student’s current understanding of specific aspects of the disciplinary core ideas, science and engineering practices, and crosscutting concepts in order to shape future instruction? In this workshop, participants will learn how to interpret and design cognitive formative assessment to fit a three-dimensional view of learning.This resource originates from a series of PD sessions on 3D formative assessment developed and provided by Katie Van Horne, Shelley Stromholt, Bill Penuel, and Philip Bell. It has been improved through a collaboration in the ACESSE project with science education experts from 13 states.

Students will research guidelines for purchasing their first vehicle from an assigned print article. Then students will formulate their own personal guidelines for purchasing and finally select three vehicles for possible purchase with a rationale as to how each of these selections would be consistent with these established guidelines.

Students will learn what advanced directives are and how they could apply to their own lives later in life. Students will identify the impact on families as one makes advanced directive decisions.

Students will understand vehicle loan guidelines and calculate a 48 and 60 month loan for monthly and total payment costs. Students will rationalize which loan would best suit them based on personal circumstances.

Students will analyze three vehicular choices using an online vehicle rating service and make comparisons as to which might be most appropriate for purchase.

Software created by the Eylbid Strategic Partnership co-financed by the Erasmus+ program of the European Union (agreement no. 2019-1-ES01-KA201-064417). This video game can be used as a classroom activity with the following objectives:

to show that language brokering is a common practice that takes place in many schools around the world;
to promote a deeper understanding of what language brokering usually implies for young people;
to present some situations that teachers can analyze and discuss with their students from multiple perspectives as part of reflective practice;
to appreciate multilingualism and raise awareness among young people who translate and interpret in schools;
to provide young language brokers with tools and strategies to express how they feel about language brokering, and thus to take care of emotional health.
The videogame is multilingual and can be played in English, Catalan, German, Italian, and Spanish.
