High School Teachers Combat "Txt-spk" by Encouraging Blogging - 0 views

  •  
    StageofLife.com thinks the answer to this phenomenon lies not in pushing against new social media, but rather embracing it: by encouraging high school students to blog. StageofLife.com is a website for the generation growing up with social media embedded into their daily lives to meet, share stories, and learn about those in their generation and other stages of life. It is an educational resource as well, offering lesson plans and contest ideas to educators. One of the most recent creative writing lesson plans is quite innovative: its goal is to break students out of the restrictive environment of 140-character word limits while at the same time promote the use of social media in the classroom. StageofLife.com believes that blogging and other social media is an integral part of the lives of current high school students, and should be incorporated into English classes around the country.

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.

    • Greg Gichan
       
      How do we make this into a class project? What about this: "Now class, we are going to tatoo ourselves. Here's a list of famous Latin Sayings. Does anyone know how to put permanent tatoos on their bodies?"
  • Celebrity Latin tattoos may be fuelling a revival of the ancient language in schools, it emerged today.
  • Her tattoo, 'Quis attero mihi tantum planto mihi validus', which is etched on to her shoulder, is intended to translate as 'To diminish me will only make me stronger'

    Or perphaps we can use this to start a dialogue. Quid putatis, discipuli, de notionibus imaginum ex atramentis permanentibus ponendarum in corporibus vestris? Si homines - et femini et masculini possunt hoc facere, quidni vos ipsi.

Pez - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - 1 views

shared by Ms Woods on 14 Jul 10 - Cached
  • The name Pez was derived from the letters at the start, the middle and the end of the German word for peppermint, Pfefferminz, the first Pez flavor.[

      Wow- cool info!
  • The all-uppercase spelling of the logo echoes the trademark's style on the packaging and the dispensers themselves, with the logo drawn in perspective and giving the appearance that the letters are built out of 44 brick-like Pez confectioneries (14 bricks in the P and 15 in each of the E and Z).

    Cathy, I did not realize that PEZ was an Austrian company. Thanks!
