A Social Media Journey - 0 views

  •  
    Back in 2011 I was working in the Middle East when a colleague introduced me to Twitter as a tool for professional development and connecting with fellow educators. Prior to this I was aware of Facebook and Twitter, however I considered both as being about nothing more than apps for sharing cute cat videos and status updates. I had a Twitter account for years, however hadn't thought about how it might be a powerful tool to help me become a better educator and provide me with a wealth of new ideas and resources which I previously had not had access to. I had barely used the account beyond the initial setup...

Collaborative Learning with Google Docs - The Learner's Way - 16 views

  •  
    Something is missing from my classroom lately and I am quite happy to have seen it disappear. It is the traditional line at the teacher's desk formed by students awaiting feedback on a recently completed piece of writing. What has replaced this is our use of Google Docs and Slides as a tool for the collaborative development of ideas from initial thinking and strategising through to final editing and refinement. It has introduced a new workflow to the class that both streamlines the process of providing feedback, allows for greater detail and transforms the process into one that is richly collaborative.

Robin Emmons - Extraordinary People Changing the Game - 0 views

  •  
    Can someone who loves gardening as a hobby really make an impact? Robin Emmons did so with the help of volunteers and donors who made Sow Much Good grow from a backyard initiative into a community project. Tired of the rat race, Robin quit her job to do some self-searching. After a couple of weeks, she was told of her brother being held in jail for an undiagnosed schizophrenic outburst. Concerned about her brother's deteriorating health in the mental facility, she volunteered to bring fresh produce from her backyard garden… then realizing that her purpose was just around her-literally.

Tristram Stuart - Extraordinary People Changing the Game - 0 views

  •  
    An author, a freegan, an activist, a father, a concerned citizen-Tristram Stuart is all that and more. He was brought up in a thrifty household where food actually got eaten. So when he began feeding pigs and discovered how much food grocery stores and food servers throw, he was compelled to do something. He endeavored to dig deeper into the problem and by discovering how much food go to waste, he began spreading the truth about the ongoing food scandal. This led to the Feeding the 5000 initiative, The Pig Idea, and the Gleaning Network. To read more about Tristram Stuart visit www.thextraordinary.org

Ron Finley - Extraordinary People Changing the Game - 0 views

  •  
    Ron Finley is not your typical gardener. His garden transformed the lives of the people in his barren community called South Los Angeles. Prior his initiative, for you to get fresh produce, you should brave driving 45 minutes. So to save on gas and beautify his front lawn, he planted food. Of course, he got apprehended for that. But 900 signatures got authorities off his back. Los Angeles Green Grounds was an organization inspired by his defiance to grow his own food. Ron is now quite a famous speaker but he remains to be a humble gardener. To read more about Ron Finley visit www.thextraordinary.org
