      When students are aware of their shortcoming, they tend to become self-conscious and put on a defense mechanism to avoid further embarrassment, by not seeking for help. Such actions prevent them from moving up to grade level. This articles suggests ways to avoid and help students who are in such situations.

  • Mr. Wesch is not swearing off technology—he still believes you can teach well with YouTube and Twitter. But at a time when using more interactive tools to replace the lecture appears to be gaining widespread acceptance, he has a new message. It doesn't matter what method you use if you do not first focus on one intangible factor: the bond between professor and student.

    Its very important to always remember that we are the teachers, our job is to guide children to use technology in a positive way. We have to learn how find advantages as well as disadvantages of using internet and technology in our classrooms this way we can plan ahead when something goes bad.

  • "Leadership is the wise use of power. Power is the capacity to translate intention into reality and sustain it.
  • One way to have power is by feeling a strong sense of self-efficacy—a strong belief that you can accomplish your goals.
  • helping them learn to categorize information instead of just listing data.
  • ...8 more annotations...
  • We can help our students gain the capacity to tackle unforeseen problems by emphasizing comprehension
  • We can also introduce students to what community organizers call "relational power" when we use cooperative learning activities and invite as much participatory democracy in the classroom as possible.
  • we can build relationships with students so we can learn their self-interests, hopes, and dreams, and be better prepared to more explicitly connect lessons to them. We can praise effort and specific actions more than intelligence. And we can encourage cooperative learning.
  • Good leaders also teach others.
  • "We learn 10% of what we read, 20% of what we hear, 30% of what we see, 50% of what we see and hear, 70% of what we say or write...[and] 90% of what we teach.”
  • Teaching others not only requires students to reread and return to learned material but it also enhances self-confidence and provides good modeling for peers.
  • When peers teach one another, they develop respect for each others’ judgment and expertise.
  • We can also develop student leadership by creating opportunities for students to take collective action to improve their community

  • I’m recycling a couple of videos that I have posted in the past, mostly because I believe that they’re worth watching again.  These videos – the original higher ed version of “A Vision of Students Today” by Mike Wesch, the spin-off , called “A Vision of K-12 Students Today”, and “The Networked Student”, created by Wendy Drexler‘s high school students  – bring to mind many thoughts that I find both challenging and encouraging.  Hopefully you will, too.

  • Based on how Google ranks search results, typing in a question will be more likely to bring back pages with a question for a title.
  • So I have students write down their questions and teach them how to mark them up to create queries, the first step being to identify the significant words.
  • Nouns frequently make good search terms, so students can start by drawing the people, places, and things in their questions.
