Six Things I Look For When I Visit A Classroom | Mindsteps Inc. - 6 views

  • When I observe a classroom, I pay close attention to who is doing the bulk of the thinking.
  • There are typically four stages of rigorous learning: acquisition, application, assimilation, and adaptation. When I visit classrooms, I try to figure out at what stage of the rigorous learning process is the instruction.
  • When I visit a classroom, I don’t immediately look on the board to see the posted objective. I try to get a sense of the objective from the instruction itself.

Measuring 1:1 Results -- THE Journal - 2 views

  • Staff development was a big issue.
  • Before the 1:1 rollout we spent at least six months on staff development. Going from 30 kids in a room opening textbooks to 30 kids opening computers is a significant shift.
  • Four years later we're still not there yet but we've definitely made progress. Getting to 100 percent is going to take a while.

Paul Otellini Busts Some Myths About Intel - Arik Hesseldahl - News - AllThingsD - 0 views

  • Moore’s Law is still alive and well, Otellini said. In 1997, Intel built a supercomputer called ASCI Red that could compute one teraflop. It required 2,500 square feet of space and 9,298 chips to get the number crunching done. Earlier this month, Intel announced a chip codenamed Knight’s Corner that can do a teraflop by itself. In the mainstream marketplace, today’s notebooks are 300 times more powerful than notebooks built in 1995.

      These kinds of statistics always give me pause. Project this out just ten years and you'll begin to see why it's SO VERY important that schools learn to leverage technology rather than ignore it.
