Education Ride 365: New Character Building Questionnaires Are Yet Another Progressive Tool To Improve Your School



“Character Building Questionnaires” are similar to the “Discipline Questionnaires” introduced in my last post.  The difference being that they include 60 lessons, each designed upon a single character trait such as honesty, integrity, justice, patience, and 56 more.  We originally designed these questionnaires as meaningful exercises for downtime students experience in In-School Suspension and other such settings while awaiting assignments to arrive from teachers or once all assigned work has been completed.  Their use can be extended beyond this original intent in any number of ways.  Each lesson reinforces the character trait by requiring students to define and use academic vocabulary terms to interpret and answer questions organized around a selection of quotes designed to explore that trait.

A great feature of both sets of questionnaires is that they can be easily edited. Furthermore, completely new questionnaires can be easily be designed and added to the existing set.

I just finished production of the video below to introduce EdClick's new "Character Building Questionnaires."

Pass It On Education Tools: Character Ed Assignments Fill Missing Link For Schools



Accomplished!  Today I worked all day polishing up the 60 Character Education Assignments I wrote for EdClick over the past couple of months.  They are now off my plate!  These were designed with In-School Suspension use in mind, but really their utility can go beyond that to, for instance, a teen leadership course on character...other disciplinary uses...or even just as a software tool to produce electronic question sets of whatever sort a school or teacher may need.

The 60 lessons I wrote are structured around thoughtful quotes and over 400 academic vocabulary words.  The student must define 6-10 words per lesson (using a vocabulary list provided by EdClick) and then use the words either to interpret the quote or as part of their written answers to questions asked.

The questions asked are designed to:
1) Encourage students to think about themselves in relation to the character concept the assignment is based on.
2) Build the student's academic vocabulary.
3) Provide meaningful academic work while assignments for In-School Suspension and other disciplinary settings are being collected from teachers......or once a student has finished all assigned work in said disciplinary setting!
4) Satisfy, or serve in conjunction with, a discipline consequence.
5) ****Get insights into the student's views and overall situation with probing questions that were written to elicit revealing responses.
6) Provide the student a forum to vent or otherwise express their feelings and thoughts.
7) More!

These lessons are all web-based, submitted online, evaluated online, and either approved or not online, including automation to help with reassignment or escalation of consequences as necessary.  Of course, the 20th century method of pen and paper can be used. 

These lessons are rich, but can be easily edited.  The technology is super easy, web-based, and inexpensive.  Let us know if you'd like an online DEMO!

Check It Out!  Pass It On!
