Classroom Eye Candy: A Flexible-Seating Paradise | Cult of Pedagogy - 0 views

  •  
    "I have taken all the conventional desks out and replaced them with mostly tables and a number of different kinds of chairs; I've used garage sales and the generosity of friends to furnish my room this way. My classroom looks like a college apartment. But I also build in transitions every 15 minutes or so that require movement (to get into groups, turn something in, write on a paper-covered wall, etc). I have little to no fidgeting problems or issues with attention loss."" This is a whole section of a teacher blog devoted to pictures and descriptions of flexible seating environments.

Penzu | Classroom - 2 views

    Penzu was a nice and easily managed blog space. Now they have created Penzu Classroom that lets a teacher manage assignments, make inline comments (highlight/pop-up) on writing, tag student work, and share entires with students online and with email; students can give feedback and discuss each others entries. This look to be highly functional and would be well worth a try, especially for a teacher just getting into elearning.

Building Smooth Transitions Into Your Classroom - 2 views

  •  
    Interesting concept of choreographing movement in the classroom when students break into groups or move from one learning station to another. The pay-off is in a more orderly class, more focused on the content, not on bumping into people. Might be especially good in very large classes and with younger students who get easily distracted.

ClassroomQ: A Better Way to Ask and Manage Questions - Nick's Picks For Educational Tec... - 2 views

  • Teachers see an ordered list of student requests along with any optional comments that students may have provided. Simply clicking on a student’s name removes them from the list. A Better Workflow ClassroomQ can play an important role in the workflow of the student-centered classroom. Students requesting help no longer have to sit with their hands up, doing nothing for extended periods of time. Teachers can give their full attention to the student(s) they are working with, knowing that other students have been acknowledged. ClassroomQ Accounts Free accounts are limited to a maximum of five students in the queue at one time (which should be plenty for most classrooms). Paid accounts ($19.99/yr.) are unlimited and also offer the ability to view who has checked in to a class along, and the option to download data from each class session.

    "The ease of use and simplicity of design are what really make ClassroomQ stand out. After creating an account, teachers can start a class session with one click. "Students join the session by going to classroomq.com/students, enter their teacher's name and class code. They can then ask for assistance and will be added to the teacher's queue with the push of a button. They can also see how many students are ahead of them at any time."ClassroomQ Assistance Button "Teachers see an ordered list of student requests along with any optional comments that students may have provided. Simply clicking on a student's name removes them from the list." Looks like a cool solution -- but wouldn't working in groups be a help? T/h to Nick LaFave

Decoding Digital Pedagogy, pt. 1: Beyond the LMS | Digital Pedagogy | HYBRID PEDAGOGY - 0 views

  •  
    "The invention of the LMS (Learning Management System) was a mistake. And here I'm not going to make the same frustrated argument made numerous times before now that LMSs are limiting structures, that their interface and functionalities control how teachers teach online (although those things are true). The LMS was a mistake because it was premature. In a world that was just waking up to the Internet and the possibility of widely-networked culture, the LMS played to the lowest common denominator, creating a "classroom" that allowed learning -- or something like learning -- to happen behind tabs, in threaded discussions, and through automated quizzes. The LMS was not a creative decision, it was not pushing the capabilities of the Internet, it was settling for the least innovative classroom practice and repositioning that digitally. As a result classes taught within its structure generally land with a dull thud. No matter how creative and inspired the teacher or pedagogue behind the wheel, the LMS is no match for the wideness of the Internet. It was born a relic -- at its launch utterly irrelevant to its environment and its user." Very thought-provoking article on how digital pedagogy really differs from just "teaching online."

Preparing Students For Tests: Have Students Generate Questions - 5 views

  •  
    The TeachingChannel has some beautiful, professionally edited videos on how to teach different things (not specific to ESL/EFL) - the techniques are what is important. Each video has discussions by the teacher, classroom shots showing the students at work, and excellent Lesson Objective and Questions to Consider in the sidebar. Very valuable for teaching training in techniques, classroom management, and ways to approach subject matter in a student-centered approach. These would all be very adaptable to ESL/EFL environments.
