New guidelines for Fair Use! - Home - Doug Johnson's Blue Skunk Blog - 0 views

  • The Code of Best Practices in Fair Use for Media Literacy Education outlines five principles, each with limitations: Educators can, under some circumstances: 1. Make copies of newspaper articles, TV shows, and other copyrighted works, and use them and keep them for educational use. 2. Create curriculum materials and scholarship with copyrighted materials embedded. 3. Share, sell and distribute curriculum materials with copyrighted materials embedded. Learners can, under some circumstances: 4. Use copyrighted works in creating new material. 5. Distribute their works digitally if they meet the transformativeness standard.
  • The Code, video and other curriculum materials for educators are available at http://centerforsocialmedia.org/medialiteracy and can also be found at http://mediaeducationlab.com/.

How To: Use Technology to Enhance Project Learning | Edutopia - 0 views

  • Fortunately, these two targets -- technology and project learning -- go hand in hand, says Tom Hickey, the Classrooms for the Future coach at Freedom Area High School, outside Pittsburgh.
  • Technology should not be the focus of your project, but rather the tool by which students meet the targeted standards.
  • Throughout the project, keep a keen eye on the learning you want to achieve.

Education at the crossroads - 0 views

  • School was the big thing for a long time. School is tests and credits and notetaking and meeting standards. Learning, on the other hand, is 'getting it'. It's the conceptual breakthrough that permits the student to understand it then move on to something else. Learning doesn't care about workbooks or long checklists.For a while, smart people thought that school was organized to encourage learning. For a long time, though, people in the know have realized that they are fundamentally different activities.

    Smithsonial Education for Educators, Families and Students
  •  
    This site is really interesting. I clicked on educators and I was able to search a topic by keyword, grade, as well as state and standard. When the search came up It has numerous additional links to go out to. It really looked like the links had good materials for teachers and kids. The one that I chose had lessons that could be printed out for educators.

State's graduation exam passes latest test - 4 views

  • The regulation calls for the state to provide 10 end-of-course exams, beginning with English literature, Algebra 1 and biology in 2010-11, with other English, math, science and social studies subjects being phased in through 2016-17.
  • School districts would be required to count the exams for at least one-third of a student's final grade or districts could use other options, including validated local assessments or Advanced Placement exams instead. Districts also could set up a project for students who failed exams.
  • Opponents of the exams told the regulatory commission that the testing program would cost too much to administer and be unfair to otherwise good students who perform poorly on standardized tests.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • We understand the system now,
  • Some have said that the exams would discourage students who have a hard time taking tests and would prompt them to drop out.

      What do you think of that concern?
  •  
    This is HUGE. There will eventually be ten end-of-course exams, each counting for one third of a student's final grade. Some will argue that this means that there will be no time for "21st Century T&L" concerns. Others will argue that those concerns are exactly what are needed to ensure true mastery of the subject. Where do YOU fall in that debate?
