Progressivism & America's Rise to World Power - 0 views

  • With input from the “muckrakers”—journalists such as Ida Tarbell, Lincoln Steffens and others—and under the leadership of Theodore Roosevelt and many other political and business leaders, the nation began to clean up its act.

    Such a great summary of an Autism Classroom. The acknowledgement of individuality is so important.

    Great video, thanks for posting this Heather! Teachers who teach children with autism have such incredible challenges, this program look extremely promising. The two things that stood out in the video for me were, "make learning fun, and adapt instructions to each individual child."

Research: Students Actually Use the Internet for Education -- THE Journal - 0 views

  • New research released by the National School Boards Association reveals data showing we all might need to reevaluate our assumptions: It turns out kids are actually using the Internet for educational purposes. In fact, according to the study, "Creating & Connecting: Research and Guidelines on Online Social--and Educational--Networking," the percentage of children specifically discussing schoolwork online outpaces the percentage that spend time downloading music.For the survey, the NSBA teamed up with Grunwald Associates to poll 1,277 9- to 17-year-olds, 1,039 parents, and 250 school district leaders who "make decisions on Internet policy." It found that a full 50 percent of students who are online spend time discussing schoolwork, and 59 percent spend time talking about education-related topics, "including college or college planning; learning outside of school; news; careers or jobs; politics, ideas, religion, or morals; and schoolwork."

    Maybe there is hope!

    The kids are engaging and participating meaningfully and purposefully online. We should pay more attention to contexts for engagement. When it is personally meaningful, kids will engage (ie. American Idol auditions), and when it isn't (college classes), they won't. Time to look at elements in the contexts which encourage meaningful participation.

Women's Ways of Knowing Project - 0 views

  • Connected knowers believe that truth is "personal, particular, and grounded in firsthand experience" (Belenky, Clinchy, Goldberger, and Tarule, 1997, p. 113). They attempt to find truth through listening, empathizing, and taking impersonal stances to information, whereas separate knowers completely exclude their feelings from making meaning and strictly rely on reason. The last way of knowing that Belenky, Clinchy, Goldberger and Tarule define is constructed knowledge, where one integrates their own opinions and sense of self with reason and the outside world around them.
  • Mary Field Belenky "works with a variety of educational and community organizations interested in supporting marginalized people to develop a voice, claim the powers of mind, and have a greater say in the way their families and communities are being run" (Instructor Bio, n.d.
  • Nancy Rule Goldberger researches "diversity in ways of knowing, exploring how culture, social power differentials, and the bicultural experience in the U.S. affect individual strategies for knowing (p. xxiii).
