  • Educators who use the KWL framework (Ogle, 1986), like those using project based learning, are well on their way to teaching thorough Guided Inquiry.  They ask their students, What do I know? (K); What do I want to learn? (W); and What did I learn? (L). 
  • Motivation and interest are key elements in inquiry learning

The Littlest Schoolhouse - Magazine - The Atlantic - 0 views

  • Teachers generally work on a mass-production model—if 30 kids are in the class, the goal is to find a method that will allow the highest percentage of them to succeed. A great teacher can employ secondary methods to get through to laggards, but given the variables that individual students bring to the class, a handful of kids will inevitably be shortchanged. Teaching each child at his or her optimal level with the optimal technique has traditionally been left to private schools and expensive tutors.

    Very neat website that converts files for you FREE. Upload a file to the server and tell it the format you want it converted to. In a very short time, you get an email and a link for your converted file
  •  
    I've used this, too, and it's excellent. Very useful for saving Youtube videos that you may want to use in the future or integrate into Powerpoints, etc. I have found, though, that wait times for the converted file vary from 10 minutes to about 12 hours, so don't rely on it for next block's presentation.

The Future of Social Media in Journalism - 2 views

  • Journalism has often been done from the top of a mountain — journalists would tell the community what they need to know. Today, much of the news has become a conversation, and journalists are being required to do as much listening to the community as they broadcast to them.

    Sounds like journalism and education have a lot in common?

How the E-Book Will Change the Way We Read and Write - WSJ.com - 0 views

  • But because books have largely been excluded from Google's index -- distant planets of unlinked analog text -- that vast trove of knowledge can't compete with its hyperlinked rivals.
  •  
    I knew then that the book's migration to the digital realm would not be a simple matter of trading ink for pixels, but would likely change the way we read, write and sell books in profound ways. It will make it easier for us to buy books, but at the same

The Best Places Where Students Can Write For An "Authentic Audience" | Larry Ferlazzo's... - 0 views

  • I’ve been spending time over this past year reflecting and evaluating on how I can be more effective in teaching writing — both to English Language Learners and my mainstream ninth-grade students.  In fact, all the English teachers at our school have been doing the same thing.  Our school got a grant that enabled us to contract with the California Writing Project to do ongoing teacher development.

Digital Age Assessment: Learning in Web 2.0 (NECC 09) « Education with Techno... - 0 views

  • How do we assess  students’ learning in these in Web  2.0 environments? We want to go beyond assessing the mere mechanics of using these tools; unfortunately, most current rubrics for Web 2.0 learning devote only a minuscule amount (usually 16% or less) to actual student academic learning. We want to refocus our assessments to reflect the students in-depth and comprehensive standards-based learning and the 21st Century Skills.
