100 Essential Web 2.0 Tools for Teachers - 7 views

  •  
    There are new web 2.0 tools appearing every day. Although some of these tools were not originally meant for use in the classroom, they can be extremely effective learning tools for today's technology geared students and their venturesome teachers. Many of these teachers are searching for the latest products and technologies to help them find easier and efficient ways to create productive learning in their students. More and more teachers are using blogs, podcasts and wikis, as another approach to teaching. We have created a list of 100 tools we think will encourage interactivity and engagement, motivate and empower your students, and create differentiation in their learning process.

Differentiation Meets Digital Technology « literacy beat - 6 views

  •  
    Differentiating instruction is a time-tested way of thinking about meeting students' needs as they make progress toward achievement or learning targets.  Differentiation is an elegant mindset that suggests to teachers a framework that permits them to engage students while focusing on learning results, and digital technologies offer many opportunities to differentiate instruction in meaningful ways.  However, differentiating instruction takes a concerted planning effort on our parts as teachers and teacher educators. This is especially so as we develop a mindset that differentiation can be effective. In this post, I propose a three-phase approach to planning differentiated instruction: Where do we start planning for differentiated instruction with technology, What are considerations for who we teach, what we teach, and how we plan? How do I put it all together?

Systems of Support | Supporting Educator Excellence through Technology and StrategySyst... - 0 views

  •  
    As thought leaders and practical innovators in education, we live in the intersection of technology and strategy. We look deep into the reservoir of the research literature, balanced with the real-life of today's educational environments, to share content for your immediate use (or at least to encourage immediate thinking). This site is a modern day chalk board where we sketch out our ideas, discoveries of others, and "stumble-ons" that we had no idea existed. Jason Gibson (the strategist) and Jason Carroll (the technologist) are popular conference speakers that have engaged educators, counselors, and administrators from across the globe (often referred to as The Jasons). Heavily influenced by the tpack, universal design for learning, and systematic instruction frameworks, we focus on tools and strategies that make a difference.
