Size Matters: How Much Reading to Assign (and other imponderables) - Center for Teachin... - 1 views

    • dkiesel
       
      Getting carried away reading other students links and exploring websites assigned for class takes a lot of time. The measurement of what becomes important to the student changes as the student exp[lore. The teacher on the other hand is stagnent with assigned expectations.
  • Similarly, assigning four different articles in one week might mean than they aren’t getting as much as they could out of any of them. Less can be more.
  • Novices and experts. Many of the above points relate to the fact that we read as experts while our students are still novices and are really learning how to read appropriately to build up their expertise.

  • develop course materials among themselves in a manner rarely seen in the F2F classroom.

      In f2f classes at masters public health program, we do extensive group projects. I think that k--12 classes may not have had many project-based classes of which hopefully will be more as we are seeing the influence of online teaching and how for practical learning the online environment can greatly compliment a practical session.  But I don't agree that all the practical project based work I have done for my profession with other students and teachers is not as well integrated compared to all the practical group work I have done in my profession with students and teachers. Also the quality of spoken live discussion in group work is very challenging when it is live. Maybe online is helping by giving us more time to think before we say something.

Why Today is My Last Day Teaching, by Ronnie Burt - 1 views

  •  
    Why today is my last day teaching online…is a blog that we should all read about how and why an instructional designer and teacher is quitting. The people answering his blog are also interesting to read - I will not summarize this because I think it is best to read it as he says it and how they respond.

    To understand what Thomas Friedman's book is about: The World is Flat - it is good to start by reading an excellent book on the history of food and other trade. That book is by Felipe Fernandez Armesto: 1492, The Year the World Began

    market speculators and even us teachers must be curious about what developments are coming in the future. Somewhere in the videos we were reminded that people will be learning technology today for jobs that don't exist yet - at least we should be because everything is changing so fast?

    I used this article to support my claim about teachers assigning too much reading. It is similar like having teachers who give lectures that require a ton of writing and then quiz you before you have a chance to learn material
