In the end, driving change in schools means remembering that technology alone isn't revolutionary. Technology just makes it possible for teachers and students to do revolutionary things.
Our choices about technology need to start and end with our beliefs about learning. Forgetting to put learning first in ANY conversation about education is a recipe for failure.

Implementing 21st Century Skills - Blog - 0 views

Garth, Steph and I are currently listening to Alan November speak at a technology conference at Bowling Green State University. He started with a question: "what is the most important skill we should be teaching students?". Alan then said thathat the president of HSBC, West Point University and a college professor all said that it should be EMPATHY. Interesting talk Mr. November is giving about all the ways we, as teachers, should be using technology, but he is very pessimistic about teachers changing, giving students more control and bringing social networking into the classroom. Great talking points, lots to think about. More from the road as it occurs.

12 Findings on Mind, Brain & Education | Getting Smart - 24 views
-
Students’ brains continuously adapt to the environments where they live and work. As students learning in these places, these experiences gradually sculpt the architecture of the brain.
-
Students’ genetic predispositions interact with learning experiences to give rise to a wide range of individual differences.
-
Students learning English as a second language are processing written information in somewhat different ways than native English speakers so standard reading instruction techniques may not be the right fit for their needs.

Finnish educator offers suggestions for American schools - Marin Independent Journal - 17 views
-
"Marin County educators gathered this week to imagine a world without standardized tests, one in which teachers would teach less and students would study less - yet score near the top on international tests of math, reading and science. Teaching would be a highly regarded profession in this world, and decisions about curriculum and other aspects of education would be made at the school - rather than the state or county level. The "achievement gap" between rich and poor schools would be unknown, as all schools would provide their students with a high level of education, along with free meals, counseling and health care. This mythical world of teachers' dreams has a name: Finland."
