    When school started this Fall, I was impressed with 9-year old Sarah's two-minute recorded response to President Obama's speech, posted to YouTube. She had 187,632 views, 1600 comments, and a 4 star rating. Talk about authentic assessment, authentic audience, and real learning.

  • dramatically increase the number of students and teachers engaging in project-based learning and performance assessment we need to highlight examples that are attainable. Rather than ask teachers to become master designers of curriculum, we should encourage teachers to tweak, or adapt, their current work to give it a more performance-based flavor

  • Likewise, the F test of overall model significance shown for the "Corrected Model" row of the GLM Univariate table is the same as that in the Regression ANOVA table.
  • Full Factorial ANOVA: Factorial ANOVA is for more than one factor (more than one independent -- hence for two-way ANOVA or higher), used to assess the relative importance of various combinations of independents. In a full factorial design, the model includes all main effects and all interactions among the factors but does not include interactions between the factors and the covariates. As such factorial anova is not a true separate form of ANOVA design but rather a way of combining designs. A design matrix table shows the intersection of the categories of the independent variables. A corresponding ANOVA table is constructed in which the columns are the various covariate (in ANCOVA), main, and interaction effects. See the discussion of two-way ANOVA below. Example.
  • Balanced designs are simply factorial designs where there are equal numbers of cases in each subgroup (cell) of the design, assuring that the factors are independent of one another (but not necessarily the covariates). Unbalanced designs have unequal n's in the cells formed by the intersection of the factors.

  • In the end, that’s all technology is, too—a resource. In the hands of talented and well-trained teachers, it can facilitate high-quality teaching and learning; when used by average teachers, it most likely will lead to average results. And in either case, it’s not entirely clear whether test scores would rise, anyway—for reasons I’ll discuss later.
  • There is plenty of anecdotal evidence to suggest that, when used wisely, technology is a powerful resource that can help boost achievement.
  • I would argue that’s the point: You can’t separate the technology from the rest of the learning process, because they are inextricably bound.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • But technology doesn’t exist in a vacuum. For technology to have an impact on student achievement, schools also need sound teaching, strong leadership, fidelity of use, and a supportive culture, among other things.
  • Among schools with one-to-one computing programs, 70 percent reported their students’ achievement scores on high-stakes tests were on the rise. But this figure was 85 percent for schools that employed certain strategies for success, including the use of electronic formative assessments on a regular basis, frequent collaboration of teachers in professional learning communities, and—most importantly—strong principal and school district leadership.

  • . I use Evernote for all my notes for school, student council meetings and PD’s. I also use Google docs to help me with assessment as I wander the room too.
  • Downloading great content from iTunes U and having the ability watch or listen without internet is such an advantage with this device
