    It combines an element of fantasy sports where you predict the future with great background information (maps, opinions of world leaders, and video clips) as well as the higher-order thinking required to say not just what you think WILL happen, but what SHOULD happen.

Justin Reich - Better Strategies Needed for School Internet Access - washingtonpost.com - 0 views

www.washingtonpost.com/...AR2009071003459.html article filter filtering acceptableuse access
shared by anonymous on 13 Jul 09 - Cached
  • The millions of stimulus dollars to be spent on modernizing classrooms won't transform learning if students can't participate in the online forums that are reshaping the economy, journalism, government and society. If government has any helpful role to play in making school Web surfing safer, it should fund the development of online safety curricula and research into effective supervision software and strategies. Requiring more filtering would throw more resources at a failed approach. Another emerging and misguided strategy is requiring certain Web sites, such as social networks, to use age verification software; evading these new obstacles won't be much harder than evading filters.

    Great article about school filters. Read it and pass it along to your administration, maybe. But certainly, discuss it with them.

  • teach Kafka in multimedia, history through “Jeopardy”-like games and math with step-by-step animation of complex problems.

      Finally! We couldn't do that before. And we all KNOW the higher order thinking that goges on in Jeopardy games. Ugh!
  • The iPads cost $750 apiece
    • anonymous

      $750 EACH? They couldn't get a laptop for that? One that could do all that this ipad can do AND MORE??
  • Educators, for instance, are still divided over whether initiatives to give every student a laptop have made a difference academically.
    • anonymous
      anonymous on 07 Jan 11
       
      And the reason is that we buy toys and only allow our students to do what they always did before, yet we expect different results. Notice what they say these kids will use these ipads for. Revolutionary? Hardly. Sound education? Not even close.

      Exactly! When they see that they can't add apps or use it as a personal learning deice (locked down, it's still learning that's direted by the teacher and not by the student) the novelty will wear off VERY quickly.

      They need 32 gig? I'll be willing to be they don't fill HALF of that. NO music. NO photos. Just apps? This decision was made by someone who thought more is better. Oh, and.. stylus? HUH?
  • play math games, study world maps and read “Winnie the Pooh.”

      Did you hear me screaming on this one? OH BOY! They can read Winnie the Pooh! And finally study world maps. And THEN what?

      And we know how much the overhead projector raises the level of Bloom's and fosters student-centered environments. It allows the TEACHERS to do things. Not the students.

      Economic recession? WHAT economic recession? Oh my. I hope that folks revisit these 'investments' in two years. There will be NO improvement and they will again blame the technology instead of the fact that it was the WRONG technology!

      Yes, but students won't be able to install it.
