Computers in schools: money well-spent, Concordia University study says - 2 views

      Then this would seem to support the use of ipads, since that's basically what you do when you "work with" apps.
  • Grumberg said she can't see how the school can meet the needs of today's children if it doesn't teach them in the way they need to learn - "and the way they learn is through the manipulation of these technologies."

Learn to Read at Starfall - teaching comprehension and phonics - 5 views

  •  
    Starfall is unique in that it begins with the basics (ABCs), moves through sounds, and finally reads aloud with the kid. It doesn't require any account or anything! Also, the stories in the "I'm Reading" section are clickable. So the kid can click on the words to have them read for him if he has trouble. Great resource because it begins with the basics and then builds from there. Awesome!

    (I love alternative points of view, varying viewpoints cause us to question and hopelfully improve our instruction) Five Reasons I'm Not Flipping Over The Flipped Classroom Nov 8 Written by: 11/8/2011 3:38 AM RssIcon If you've read my thoughts about the Flipped Classroom in USA Today, you probably are either in agreement with my caution over the excitement around the flipped classroom made popular by Sal Kahn or you are a flipped classroom advocate who wants to convince me and other innovative educators that flipping is for everyone. While I certainly see benefits in flipping instruction as I wrote about earlier this year, there are also reasons to move ahead with caution.

    WOW, self pace lessons accompanied by the Khan Academy videos. Works with Google Apps and teachers can become "coaches" for the students to run reports on their progress totally free. Looks like it will grow in math and then to science, just a guess b/c of the Google Sky use. Please check this out especially if you have Google Apps in your district.

TeachPaperless: Culture vs. Control - 6 views

  • Columbus Signature Academy
  • New Tech Network of schools which are problem based learning high schools. The first thing I noticed was the open spaces and architecture
  • The second and more lasting thing I noticed was the students. They were in hallways and classrooms. They were on laptops, listening to headphones, working independently, working in groups, and working on projects. Everyone seemed engrossed in whatever tasks they were involved in. Not everyone was doing the same thing. It was not quiet, but it also was not loud either. The one group of people I had a hard time locating were the teachers.
