What do the best classrooms in the world look like? - By Amanda Ripley - Slate Magazine - 1 views

  •

  •  
    Thanks for sharing this, Rhys. I agree -- this is an important article for all of us to read.
  •  
    Wow, what an interesting perspective. I'm inclined to believe some of those high-performing schools are excelling *despite* the lack of technology, but I definitely sensed the author's bias here...it almost seemed like she wanted to prove that 'fancy equipment' detracts from real learning.

Classrooms for the Future - 0 views

  • The vertical axis on the left is Complexity, with explicit reference to rigor or new Bloom’s taxonomy from basic on the bottom to higher order at the top.  The horizontal axis is Instruction from teacher centered or didactic instruction to student centered or constructivist instruction.  The diagonal axis ranges from more abstract, artificial activities to authentic, real world or relevant activities.
  • The goal of CFF is to create more learning opportunities that are where the three axes meet in the upper right hand corner of the chart.
  • To make these changes, teachers and school leaders participate in extensive professional development on how to best harness the power of technology to increase student achievement and ensure students are ready for college and the high-tech global job market.
