How Science Works - Clip Bank - BP Educational Service (BPES) - Free Teaching Resource - 43 views

  •  
    I've not shared to this group before, but wondered if you'd be interested in this free science teaching resource we've produced on behalf of BP Educational Service. It's been targeted to the UK curricula with some great educational videos and animations.

The 21st Century Centurion: 21st Century Questions - 0 views

  • The report extended literacy to “Five New Basics” - English, mathematics, science, social studies, and computer science. A Nation At Risk specified that all high school graduates should be able to “understand the computer as an information, computation and communication device; students should be able to use the computer in the study of the other Basics and for personal and work-related purposes; and students should understand the world of computers, electronics, and related technologies."That was 1983 - twenty- six years ago. I ask you, Ben: Has education produced students with basic knowledge in the core disciplines and computer science TODAY? Are we there yet? OR - are we still at risk for not producing students with the essential skills for success in 1983?

      I had never really considered this before...how computer science has been totally left out of the equaltion....why is that? Cost of really delivering this would be enormous -- think how much money the districts would have to pour into the school systems.
  • On June 29, 1996, the U. S. Department of Education released Getting America's Students Ready for the 21st Century; Meeting the Technology Literacy Challenge, A Report to the Nation on Technology and Education. Recognizing the rapid changes in workplace needs and the vast challenges facing education, the Technology Literacy Challenge launched programs in the states that focused on a vision of the 21st century where all students are “technologically literate.” Four goals, relating primarily to technology skills, were advanced that focused specifically on: 1.) Training and support for teachers; 2.) Acquisition of multimedia computers in classrooms; 3.) Connection to the Internet for every classroom; and 4.) Acquiring effective software and online learning resources integral to teaching the school's curriculum.

      we are really stuck here....the training and support -- the acquisition of hardware, connectivity etc.
  • Our profession is failing miserably to respond to twenty-six years of policy, programs and even statutory requirements designed to improve the ability of students to perform and contribute in a high performance workplace. Our students are losing while we are debating.

  • In 2007, The Report of the NEW Commission on the Skills of the American Workforce: Tough Choices or Tough Times made our nation hyperaware that "World market professionals are available in a wide range of fields for a fraction of what U.S. professionals charge." Guess what? While U.S. educators stuck learned heads in the sand, the world's citizens gained 21st century skills! Tough Choices spares no hard truth: "Our young adults score at “mediocre” levels on the best international measure of performance." Do you think it is an accident that the word "mediocre" is used? Let's see, I believe we saw it w-a-a-a-y back in 1983 when A Nation At Risk warned of a "tide of mediocrity." Tough Choices asks the hard question: "Will the world’s employers pick U.S. graduates when workers in Asia will work for much less? Then the question is answered. Our graduates will be chosen for global work "only if the U.S. worker can compete academically, exceed in creativity, learn quickly, and demonstrate a capacity to innovate." There they are

      This is exactly what dawns on students when they realize what globalization means for them..the incredibly stiff competition that it is posed to bring about.
  • “Learning is what most adults will do for a living in the 21st century."

  • El plan de estudios de talla única debe desaparecer.

      Estoy de acuerdo! Cada estudiante debe estudiar su propio plan de estudios.
  • Estoy a favor de que los niños aprendan sobre lo que les interesa bajo la guía de expertos y profesores que les indiquen direcciones razonables.

  • Si queremos llegar hasta el final de los estudios, tenemos que pasar, año tras año, por una serie de asignaturas obligatorias que van en bloque y son comunes a todos los alumnos.
  • El cambio lo impiden las universidades, que realmente no tienen ningún interés en la escuela secundaria. En resumen, no quieren enseñar materias de escuela secundaria en la universidad.
  • Todo el colegio es una pérdida de tiempo si piensas que su papel es realmente el aprendizaje. La educación más importante ocurre en casa o en el trabajo. La mayoría de lo que se aprende en el colegio se olvida.
  • Enseñar es un trabajo terrible. No consigue respeto y la escuela no permite a los profesores ser buenos en lo que hacen de ninguna forma real.
  • Necesitamos convertir la enseñanza en supervisión. La supervisión sólo puede hacerse en un plan de estudios en el que los niños están intentando conseguir algo, y realmente quieren hacerlo.
