An amazing language learning site which helps learners of MFL remember words for over 200 languages by associating them with visual clues/mnemonics and score points by showing you remember the language in a variety of ways. You can listen to audio of the words you are learning. The site tracks your progress and analyses where you need improvement and it will adjust the words you are shown accordingly. http://ictmagic.wikispaces.com/Languages%2C+Culture+%26+International+Projects

What should our goal for student thinking be? How do we scaffold student thinking in ways that are meaningful while developing autonomy and encouraging students to think effectively when we are not there? What would success with thinking strategies look like? These were the challenging questions that Mark Church presented to teachers at the most recent 'Cultures of Thinking Teach Meet' hosted by Masada College.

Nigel Coutts on 19 Feb 17

Increasingly we aim to teach dispositions but some care in the use of the term is required as it is easily oversimplified. While teaching for dispositions is encouraged it will have little effect if it means doing little other than engaging with the terminology. If we are to encourage the expansion of the desired dispositions, we must be sure to adequately unpack them and understand the implications in store for our culture of learning.

I've just "discovered" Tumblr - not as a blogging platform but as a means for posting the best in rich media while still staying within copyright. Which has prompted me to rebuild my Look to Learn site from Wordpress onto Tumblr. I still use Wordpress for lots of things, but when trying to promote a culture of critical and creative thinking, I'm hooked on Tumblr -- see: http://tommarch.tumblr.com

With the following four variables in place, a learner can exceed expectations. 1. A good prompt, motivating challenge, or thoughtful question 2. Appropriate materials 3. Sufficient time 4. Supportive culture, including a range of expertise The genius of this approach is that it is self-evident. If you lack one of the four elements, it is obvious what needs to be done
