    "The week after my dad passed, I decided to come back. Bereavement time was up and I felt that getting back into my classroom would help. I was wrong. By the third day I was still feeling lost, overwhelmed, and exhausted. I ended taking the last two days of the week off. I came back, what I felt as "refreshed", the following Monday. Only still feeling lost, overwhelmed, and exhausted. As soon as I walked into the school I immediately met with the principal and told him that I couldn't continue. I needed more time away to deal with my emotions and to understand the scope of what took place. I could hear words of my dad echoing in my ear - "take care of yourself… if you don't, you'll end up sick." While my dad's health wasn't that great, and he knew it; he always made sure that everyone else took better care of themselves. Exactly like me. I make sure that others are always put before me. I could not longer do that. I needed to take care of myself before I ended up lying on the floor unable to move, like Izzy in Grey's Anatomy. Those four extra days was what I needed. I processed his death, I cried, I slept (for nearly two whole days), and I remembered the good times. I sat on the couch catching up on missed shows, Netflix, and Days of our Lives. We stress the importance of good mental health to our students, but I wasn't heeding my own words. I knew that being in the classroom too soon after his death wasn't making me a good teacher for my students."

    "Have you ever played a name game with your new classes? Typically everyone stands in a circle and the first person says their name, the next person says their own name and the name of the first person, and the third person says their own name, the name of the second person, and the name of the first person, and so on. Can you imagine how the last person in the group feels? There's so much pressure to remember everyone's names. Over the years, name games have been a go-to tool for me when learning the names of students. I noticed that my students and I learned names faster through name games. Now, however, I approach these games differently."

    "Generative art-art produced by AI-means you no longer need to be an accomplished artist to produce fantastic images in whatever style you choose. To create AI art, you would typically create an account with a third-party company and have generated images served to you over the web. But did you know you can create unlimited AI images on your own PC?"

  • As with learning to read, swim or play good football children will be much more effective social networkers with support, guidance and help than without
  • We need to educate young people to understand that it is wrong to write anything on a social networking site which you wouldn’t say to someone’s face
  • Second, Twitter and Facebook are, as has been well publicised, a groomer’s dream.

    "Digital storytelling is a first person story, where the narrator is digitally sharing his or her story; while a digital story is narrated in third person and shared digitally. Both can include imagery, background music, or motion. They also incorporate storyboarding, writing a script, revising, and publishing (the elements of writing)."

  • It is a third gadget, the long-awaited Amazon tablet called the Kindle Fire, that represents his company’s most ambitious leap into the hearts, minds, and wallets of millions of consumers.
  • the Fire is an emblem of a post-web world, in which our devices are simply a means for us to directly connect with the goodies in someone’s data center.
  • Amazon, on the other hand, is a content-focused company—almost half of its revenue comes from sales of media like books, music, TV shows

  • This keeps iPads tethered to the paradigm of local storage, putting a premium on machines with more memory (which cost hundreds of dollars more). Amazon, by contrast, emphasizes streaming.

Educators Will Never Be 100% Connected. | My Island View - 4 views

shared by Phil Taylor on 29 Apr 14 - No Cached
  • Educators have always needed to master the understanding of at least two fields of endeavor to be successful. First, they needed to master their content field. They are required to be experts of content. Second, they needed to master the field of education with a clear understanding of the latest and greatest methodology and pedagogy available. The 21st Century has now further complicated the teaching profession by requiring an additional third area of mastery, digital literacy.
  • It requires an understanding of the connected culture in order to reap the full benefits of collaboration.

DIGITAL LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS: Teachers' Challenges for 21st Century Learning - 9 views

shared by John Evans on 07 Jul 10 - Cached
  • Recreating and retooling the teaching practice is a must to well serve students in today’s 21st century learning ecosystem. The real question isn’t ‘will we need teachers’, but ‘what will teachers need to be able to do’ in the new environment.
  • The teachers’ challenge is threefold.  One – to change his/her own foundational beliefs and practices; two – to coach students to become self-directed learners where they do two thirds of the heavy learning lifting toward achievement; three – integrate technologies in meaningful, relevant ways. Each of these is a challenge that requires high quality employee-directed and employer-directed professional development.

  • Time-to-Adoption Horizon: One Year or Less The unprecedented evolution of mobiles continues to generate great interest. The idea of a single portable device that can make phone calls, take pictures, record audio and video, store data, music, and movies, and interact with the Internet — all of it — has become so interwoven into our lifestyles that it is now surprising to learn that someone does not carry one. As new devices continue to enter the market, new features and new capabilities are appearing at an accelerated pace. One recent feature — the ability to run third-party applications — represents a fundamental change in the way we regard mobiles and opens the door to myriad uses for education, entertainment, productivity, and social interaction.

  • Welcome to the third elementary school workshop for the 1001 Flat World Tales project! A "Flat Classroom" writing workshop between international and public schools around the world. We are using the story telling format of 1001 Nights to tell a new story, a story of our world. The format of 1001 Nights is unique, with thousands of different stories embedded within the one main story. We hope that our student stories will become "never ending tales," with each links to different individual stories embedded within our one overarching story. Our story starts here!

globeandmail.com: Patriot Act haunts Google service - 0 views

  • The U.S. Patriot Act, passed in the weeks after the September, 2001, terrorist attacks in the United States, gives authorities the means to secretly view personal data held by U.S. organizations. It is at odds with Canada's privacy laws, which require organizations to protect private information and inform individuals when their data has been shared. At Lakehead, the deal with Google sparked a backlash. "The [university] did this on the cheap. By getting this free from Google, they gave away our rights," said Tom Puk, past president of Lakehead's faculty association, which filed a grievance against Lakehead administration that's still in arbitration. Professors say the Google deal broke terms of their collective agreement that guarantees members the right to private communications. Mr. Puk says teachers want an in-house system that doesn't let third parties see their e-mails. Some other organizations are banning Google's innovative tools outright to avoid the prospect of U.S. spooks combing through their data. Security experts say many firms are only just starting to realize the risks they assume by embracing Web-based collaborative tools hosted by a U.S. company, a problem even more acute in Canada where federal privacy rules are at odds with U.S. security measures.
