A FREE Book App - Cool to Be Clever - iGameMom - 2 views

  • This is a book App targeted at kids 6 and up, or kids who are ready to read chapter-books.  It tells the true story of Edson Hendricks: He was bullied at school, but found comfort in an imaginary world where he had machine parts, and no biological organs or emotions.  Later he went to MIT and IBM, and invented “connectionless” network design, which is used in today’s Internet.

Devlin's Angle: If You Don't Have a Web Presence, Are You Doing Your Job? - 2 views

  • the fact that there are millions of people who, rather than examine the evidence and change their position, prefer to cling to what they were taught as children, is simply a fact of life
  • Americans seem particularly prone to this head-in-the-sands behavior.
  • Sure, it takes time to build those networks. But there is an audience out there of committed teachers who are eager for all the help they can get.

What makes a brilliant teacher? - 0 views

  •  
    While watching a brilliant teacher in action, you too may have wondered: "What is it that makes them excellent?" Do we, as an educational community actually realise what makes a true teacher? Is it purely down to perfect pedagogy, rigorous planning and assessing, diligent resource making and clever behaviour management; or is there something more?

Is there enough focus on teacher collaboration? - 0 views

  •  
    Do we care enough about allowing time for teachers to collaborate in schools? Granted the emphasis is on teaching students. I get that, but what about the need for teachers to share, exchange, grow in their work, etc. That is harder to accomplish in isolation.

    This goes back to the discussion of creating PLNs and PLNCs. Richard Byrne gave a good presentation on this a while back (http://www.slideshare.net/rbyrnetech/constructing-a-pln-3465767). Robert Jacobs' blog - Education Innovation - has been writing on this topic for years. I still refer back to this 2009 article from time to time. http://educationinnovation.typepad.com/my_weblog/2009/07/welcome-to-the-revolution-the-professional-networked-learning-collaborative.html
