Technology and Achievement the Bottom Line - 2 views

  •  
    This article discusses the role that computers play in the school and in children's social, emotional, and physical development. Technology is on the rise and as the year's progress, computers are being provided for students in the classroom. The question is does using technology in school raise students achievement. For the younger students computers were most effective on student learning when the teacher would use them for high thinking skills. Computers used in 12th grade history reported the more that students used computers outside the classroom their performances were higher on test scores. This study suggests that schools that provide technology applications should provide training for students to use these applications. In conjunction, schools should provide basic computer skills for students so that they can improve in their content areas.

    I like the idea of providing technology training to students. It amazes me how many of my students don't have basic computer skills. I usually spend a lot of time just teaching them how to use a program.

    I love quizlet! These teacher- OR student-made online study guides allow students to access material and information anywhere with internet connection. And its use of different methods--flash cards-matching-GAMES!-quizzes--ensures all learning styles are addressed. This article (a thesis) studies and advises on the use of Quizlets.

The Code of Best Practices in Fair Use for Media Literacy Education | Center for Social... - 7 views

  • Lack of clarity reduces learning and limits the ability to use digital tools. Some educators close their classroom doors and hide what they fear is infringement; others hyper-comply with imagined rules that are far stricter than the law requires, limiting the effectiveness of their teaching and their students’ learning.

CAPE | Benefits of Private Education - 1 views

  •  
    This article lists all the benefits of attending a private school versus attending a public one.
  •  
    I really enjoyed this article and definitely agree that students benefit from a private school education. I taught private Kindergarten for two years. The curriculum I taught was on a 1st and 2nd grade level and with the small student-teacher ratio (I had 10 kids max), I was able to work with students one on one and focus on each students weakness area to improve it. Also, at the end of the year, the students had benchmark tests they took and scored well above the percentile compared to other students their same age in the areas of math, reading, social awareness, etc. If financially feasible, I think students especially younger ones greatly benefit from private school. Great selection of article.
