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.

Mathalicious - 19 views

    "At Mathalicious, we believe that math isn't something to learn, but a tool to learn about other things. Our mission is to help transform the way math is taught by providing you with the best, most meaningful and most relevant math content available. Our lessons are aligned to traditional state standards but, unlike most content, emphasize conceptual understanding through engaging real-world applications." A nod towards developing number sense in a relevant way is useful for our students who nowadays struggle with certain basic concepts. Develop a homework assignment for the Calc student that struggles with graphing the equation of a line.
