Sharing Your Experience with Tasks
You taught the task. You know what landed, what you would tweak, and what caught your students' attention. Sharing that back is one of the most useful things you can do in ATLAS. Your feedback helps a colleague choose the right task and walk in better prepared, and a document you adapted can save someone hours of work. And it comes back around: as more tasks gather feedback and shared resources, the whole library gets more useful for you, too. There are two ways to share, both right on the task page.
Share your feedback about a task
Once you have taught a task, open its task page and scroll to Leave a review of this task. You will need an ATLAS account, and you should only review tasks you have actually taught. There are two independent ways to give feedback, and you can do either or both.
- Ratings. Rate the task on three scales: Ease of Preparation, Ease of Implementation, and Student Engagement. Your ratings feed the Teacher Insights summary near the top of the task page, so other teachers can see at a glance how a task tends to go.
- A comment. This is where you can really help. Describe your experience teaching the task, the parts that worked best, and where you ran into challenges. A good comment goes beyond whether you liked the task; it is practical support and suggestions for the teacher who teaches it next.
Share your adaptations of a task
Made the task your own? Maybe you swapped in a local phenomenon, added a handout, built a scaffold for your multilingual learners, or created something else worth passing along. You can share your adapted or added documents publicly, right on the ATLAS task page. Find the Teacher Submitted Documents section and click Submit a Document.
Because you started from the task's page, the task your submission is for is already filled in at the top. From there, point ATLAS to your Google Drive document or folder, give it a title, choose the kind of change you made, and add a short description.
