It a great idea , today I was attending a high school implimenting location based learning project. I actualy came to the same conclusion. forml knowledge would have better been aquired through reading and recorded information while the class would have been better used for "workshop" activity in which students would have created location based learning objects

Jimmy Donal "Jimbo" Wales is the founder of the 5th most popular website in the world-Wikipedia. Wikipedia revolutionized the rather drab and monotonous presentation of facts by archaic encyclopedias.

"Speaking and writing in the target language are two fundamental goals of the World Languages Department. To that end, our 5th grade Spanish students maintain a class blog (hosted by MICDS and powered by WordPress MU) where they can showcase their language skills. For their first exercise, each student posted a letter that included an audio recording created using Audacity. These posts will, over time, become a portfolio of the students' progression in Spanish."

new study with some interesting findings. the trouble is always, putting all these study/findings into our head and synthesizing it into some kind of workable framework. It is never just one thing that impacts student achievement.

I am really confused by this abstract- it calls the assumption into question but then seems to assert the very same assumption??? Researchers and policymakers often assume that teacher turnover harms student achievement, but recent evidence calls into question this assumption. Using a unique identification strategy that employs grade-level turnover and two classes of fixed-effects models, this study estimates the effects of teacher turnover on over 600,000 New York City 4th and 5th grade student observations over 5 years. The results indicate that students in grade-levels with higher turnover score lower in both ELA and math and that this effect is particularly strong in schools with more low-performing and black students. Moreover, the results suggest that there is a disruptive effect of turnover beyond changing the composition in teacher quality.

Beautiful Word Clouds

I used this with my students to identify character traits. They had to come up with a list of traits for a main character and identify the one essential word. The character's name and the essential word were largest in the word cloud. I also had them go back to their list and eliminate the weakest word. In a writing assignemnt later, they had to defend their reasoning in selecting the essential and weakest word. Turned out to be a great assignment and my 5th graders LOVED Wordle!
