 +
 +
Identifying ‘explicit’ learning goals can be challenging to teachers. Yet without ‘explicit’ learning goals, feedback cannot be wholly effective.
 +
 +
SOLO is used as a model of different levels of understanding when planning learning intentions by teachers (and students). The process of ‘constructive alignment’ uses learning verbs coded against SOLO outcomes to unpack New Zealand Curriculum achievement objectives and achievement standards(Biggs and Tang, 2009, p50).
 +
 +
Associating the levels in SOLO with “declarative knowledge verbs” (Biggs & Tang, 2007, p79) has been fundamental to building clarity, competence and confidence into the process of writing learning goals.
 +
 +
In New Zealand the list of SOLO coded learning verbs for declarative knowledge and functioning knowledge (see table 1 below)have been selected from commonly used task descriptors in NCEA (Hook, 2011) and chosen to support a classroom based approach to SOLO Taxonomy. As such they differ from the classification of learning verbs by Biggs and Tang 2007. Refer Table 2

'''Verbs typical of each level in SOLO Taxonomy'''
 +
 +
My alignment of the verbs with the SOLO levels, is a little different from that suggested by Biggs in Table 2 below.
 +
 +
If you check Biggs and Tang - Figure 5.2. A hierarchy of verbs that may be used to form intended learning outcomes p.79 and table 5.1.Some verbs for ILOs from the SOLO taxonomy p.80 you will see that I have shifted Biggs’ verbs to better suit a classroom based approach.
 +
I wanted to make the connection between the verb and the SOLO level explicit – verbs for bringing in loose ideas, verbs for connecting ideas and verbs for extending ideas. 
 +
For example, when I developed the classroom based approach for use by students as young as five years old - I shifted classify and sequence to relational because it seemed like the process of sequencing and classifying involved students in making connections between ideas.  The SOLO relational visual maps and self-assessment rubrics reinforced this. I moved predict, conclude, summarise, make a plan to the extended abstract level because they seemed to involve students in looking at connected ideas in a new way.  The SOLO extended abstract visual maps and self-assessment rubrics reinforced this. 
 +
 +
Prof. John Biggs has recognised the changes I made in the development of a classroom based approach to using SOLO – and given his blessing. 
 +
 +
Context is important in aligning verbs to SOLO outcomes in Biggs and Tang (2007) John notes
 +
''“Some verbs could be either extended abstract or relational, depending on, for example,, the degree of originality or the context in which the verb was deployed: ‘solve a problem’, for example. And whether ‘paraphrase’ is relational or multistructural depends on how the student goes about paraphrasing: replacing with like-meaning phrases or rethinking the meaning of the whole text and rewriting it.”''  Biggs and Tang p80

== '''SOLO Visual Maps''' ==
 +
 +
Visual mapping helps students understand the process steps when they are using academic language - describing, explaining, analysing , evaluating etc.
 +
They are useful draft writing templates for both structure and content across different levels of SOLO tasks and outcomes.
 +
 +
When introducing the SOLO maps to students work with familiar content and contexts to reduce the cognitive load when learning a new process. Work for student fluency in map use. Give students many opportunities to use each map so they can "overlearn" the process steps for comparison, explanation etc. Encourage double processing whereby the student drafts thinking using the maps before writing AND also reads content from an existing text/paragraph and then summarise it onto a map. In time fluent users will be able to select an appropriate SOLO process map for an identified task.
 +
 +
Expert users will adapt and modify existing process maps to connect their draft thinking outcomes. For example - connecting a SOLO Explain effects map to a SOLO Sequence map.
 +
 +
Students can also be encouraged to build their own maps using the rectangle/speech bubble/thought bubble templates - [http://pamhook.com/2015/08/04/make-your-own-solo-maps/ as shown in this post]

This wiki page describes how SOLO Taxonomy can be adapted for use with students and teachers to improve the effectiveness of “feed up” (Where am I going?). Other pages will explore "feedback" (How am I going?) and “feed forward” (What should I do next?).

Feed Up: Identifying the learning goals/intentions

Teaching and learning goals focus on declarative knowledge and functioning knowledge.

Identifying ‘explicit’ learning goals can be challenging to teachers. Yet without ‘explicit’ learning goals, feedback cannot be wholly effective.

SOLO is used as a model of different levels of understanding when planning learning intentions by teachers (and students). The process of ‘constructive alignment’ uses learning verbs coded against SOLO outcomes to unpack New Zealand Curriculum achievement objectives and achievement standards(Biggs and Tang, 2009, p50).

Associating the levels in SOLO with “declarative knowledge verbs” (Biggs & Tang, 2007, p79) has been fundamental to building clarity, competence and confidence into the process of writing learning goals.

In New Zealand the list of SOLO coded learning verbs for declarative knowledge and functioning knowledge (see table 1 below)have been selected from commonly used task descriptors in NCEA (Hook, 2011) and chosen to support a classroom based approach to SOLO Taxonomy. As such they differ from the classification of learning verbs by Biggs and Tang 2007. Refer Table 2

Verbs typical of each level in SOLO Taxonomy

My alignment of the verbs with the SOLO levels, is a little different from that suggested by Biggs in Table 2 below.

If you check Biggs and Tang - Figure 5.2. A hierarchy of verbs that may be used to form intended learning outcomes p.79 and table 5.1.Some verbs for ILOs from the SOLO taxonomy p.80 you will see that I have shifted Biggs’ verbs to better suit a classroom based approach. I wanted to make the connection between the verb and the SOLO level explicit – verbs for bringing in loose ideas, verbs for connecting ideas and verbs for extending ideas.

Context is important in aligning verbs to SOLO outcomes in Biggs and Tang (2007) John notes “Some verbs could be either extended abstract or relational, depending on, for example,, the degree of originality or the context in which the verb was deployed: ‘solve a problem’, for example. And whether ‘paraphrase’ is relational or multistructural depends on how the student goes about paraphrasing: replacing with like-meaning phrases or rethinking the meaning of the whole text and rewriting it.” Biggs and Tang p80
