  • CK-12 Foundation is a non-profit organization with a mission to reduce the cost of textbook materials for the K-12 market both in the U.S. and worldwide. Using an open-content, web-based collaborative model termed the "FlexBook," CK-12 intends to pioneer the generation and distribution of high quality educational content that will serve both as core text as well as provide an adaptive environment for learning.

  • Imagine a learning experience where students are thrust into the everyday hustle and bustle of a century or two ago.  Where they find themselves enslaved in an antebellum town, or caught up in a strike in a Massachusetts textile mill, or riding the rails in the Depression.  Where they’ll need to have all their wits about them to survive in these unfamiliar environments

  • Space, whether physical or virtual, can have a significant impact on learning. Learning Spaces focuses on how learner expectations influence such spaces, the principles and activities that facilitate learning, and the role of technology from the perspective of those who create learning environments: faculty, learning technologists, librarians, and administrators.

    I like the focus on instructional routines that promote problem solving/creative thinking as the focus not the technology. It's a belief that I continue to espouse, but as usual David says it more eloquently (and succinctly) than I do.

    Comparison of how different computer and electronic manufacturers compare to each other when it comes to the amount of toxic materials, un-recyclable materials, and other waste that goes into making their electronics. Also includes a date of last update, to let people know how "fresh" the information is.

Google Wave teaching online learning technology resources

shared by Kristine Goldhawk on 01 Nov 09 - Cached
  • When a school closes, a large percentage of the student body may be sick, but a large percentage is not. A tool such as Wave enables the students who are well enough to collaborate together in an online environment.
  • Whenever I promote a new technology I always remind teachers that the fundamental aspects of effective instruction remain the same. Technology doesn't change the basics, it simply repackages them in a new and exciting way.
  • Another major problem is that the talented teachers are not motivated at all to go to the villages rather be in the big cities to enjoy the benefits that Big cities offer. With web 2.0 technologies we have a chance to solve these problems. I see a great future where for the first time in the history that we can provide education to the poorest people of those remote villages at a very low cost that is affordable
