  •  
    I attended a presentation at the NCTM conference in April about UDL.  It's a new spin on an age-old concept of differentiation and how people learn best.  It's definitely something for me to think about in terms of curriculum, delivery, and assessment.

NIDA for Teens: The Science Behind Drug Abuse - 3 views

  •  
    The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), a component of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), created this Web site to educate adolescents ages 11 through 15 (as well as their parents and teachers) on the science behind drug abuse. NIDA enlisted the help of teens in developing the site to ensure that the content addresses appropriate questions and timely concerns. Recognizing that teens want to be treated as equals, NIDA scientists were careful not to preach about the dangers of drug use. Rather, the site delivers science-based facts about how drugs affect the brain and body so that kids will be armed with better information to make healthy decisions. Elements such as animated illustrations, quizzes, and games are used throughout the site to clarify concepts, test the visitor's knowledge, and make learning fun through interaction.

Movie Sheets - Teacher Submitted Movie Worksheets for the Classroom - 9 views

  •  
    "Showing videos and the occasional Hollywood film in the classroom is an innovative way to demonstrate concepts and expose common misconceptions while providing a thought provoking change of pace for students. These worksheets are NOT meant to supplement good interactive, thought provoking activities in the classroom, rather they are meant to provide an OCCASSIONAL change of pace in the classroom. It is recommend to show the film, then stop the footage, do some teaching, and start it up again."
  •  
    Maybe information on these worksheets could be used to create backchannel discussions during viewing, using tools like edmodo or Moodle forums...

    It's certainly a challenge to engage today's students. Learning theory shows that one of the keys to successful learning is engagement. Using Philip Schlechty's "Qualities the Affect Engagement" as a framework, Tony Vincent outlines 21 technology tools, strategies, and tips educators can use to increase authentic engagement. Learn ways to motivate learners using online tools that are freely available. Examples include polling students, illustrating concepts with crazy cartoons, creating jazzy slide shows, and touring some of the newest coolest sites the web has to offer.

Emotion and Hope: Constructive Concepts for Complex Times - 33 views

  • Technology and the Problem of Change
  • The more powerful technology becomes, the more indispensable good teachers are.
  • In brief, research shows that schools that only restructure (change the curriculum, add new roles, reorganize) make no difference in teaching and learning. However, schools that reculture (as well as restructure) do make a difference if they (a) focus on student learning; (b) link knowledge of student learning to changes in instructional practices; and (c) work together to assess teachers and school leadership to make improvement.
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • Assessment literacy is the capacity to examine student work and student performance data and make critical sense of this information; and to develop instructional and school improvement plans to make the kinds of changes to get better results — doing all of this on a continuous basis. Technology, of course, (as in the above examples) is absolutely crucial to this entire process.
  • A third change learning is that teachers and schools are inundated with a continuous torrent of fragmented and unconnected policies, innovations and other demands.
  • piecemeal reform (se
  • Innovations in technology so far have been part of the problem not the solution
  • First, the combination of teacher learning through assisted professional development, organizational learning through the development of collaborative cultures, and program coherence are essential. No one or two of these will make an impact. Second, these changes in combination are exceedingly deep and complex to achieve.
