Technology Integration | Supporting Connected Learning for all of District 877 - 1 views

  •  
    Over 50 BHM teachers took that step at the Teach 2.0 Day on October 19. Thank you to all of the teacher leaders that took the time to teach a class or to lead a discussion. Pressure and anxiety come along with presenting to colleagues, and so does a feeling of relief and pride when the ideas you have shared impact the learning happening for students. The courage shown by these teacher leaders left an impression on our staff.

I hope this makes it more manageable for teachers to pick and choose which tools they want to use.

Why Teaching Someone Else is the Best Way To Learn | TIME Ideas | TIME.com - 0 views

  •  
    Students enlisted to tutor others, these researchers have found, work harder to understand the material, recall it more accurately and apply it more effectively. In what scientists have dubbed "the protégé effect," student teachers score higher on tests than pupils who are learning only for their own sake.

Free Technology for Teachers: New Comment-only Option in Google Docs - 0 views

  •  
    Earlier today Google added a handy new sharing setting to Google Documents. Now when you share a document with someone you have the option to give him or her "comment-only" access. Comment-only access means that the person with whom you have shared your document can only add notes to the margins of your document but cannot actually change the content of what you have written. In the past your only sharing options were "can edit" and "can view."

  •  
    I visit a lot of classrooms. And I'm always fascinated by the variety of ways teachers launch the new school year and also with how they "run their rooms" on a daily basis. From these visits and my own experiences as an instructor, I'd like to offer my top 20 suggestions for keeping your classroom a safe, open, and inviting place to learn.

Teacher Education in the Digital Age - playDUcation - 1 views

  •  
    I think the best paedagogic use of digital tools in school is the same way they're being used in society: As an interactive information and communication medium. For the first time in paedagogic history we have such simple ways of organizing the most important aspects of learning, namely internalization, externalization, individualization and collaboration. Good practice for me is to use blogging for the collaborative collection of material, to discuss problems and to show results. They pretty works in all subjects, I've even seen a successful implementation in sports.

Free Technology for Teachers: Textbooks, Wikipedia, and Primary Sources Comparison - 0 views

  •  
    I posted this yesterday on Google+ and it seems to have been well-received so I thought I'd share it again. In February of 2010 I designed a short activity for my students to compare textbooks, Wikipedia, and primary source documents on a given topic. Next week my students will be doing this activity with a slight modification to match where we are in the curriculum right now.
