An Evidence of Learning Disply of Ms. Misty's Class Experiment

Learning is fun! And it is also a process.

One of the things that is challenging to do in the field of education is to show both the students and the parents that actual learning has occurred.  Here at The Grove School we call that EVIDENCE OF LEARNING.

Typically in most educational settings the only evidence you see is the finished product.  There is nothing wrong with finished products.  However, evidence of learning goes beyond that.  It shows the PROCESS the students went through during their learning.

The experiment was to try to make crystals with water and Epsom salt. The students performed the tasks individually.

The steps were measure the Epsom salt, pour in the water, mix it up, transfer it to another bowl for observation, let the water evaporate and then investigate the results.

The photo at right and the close-ups below, show the process the students followed during their experiment.
