SciGirls | Home - 1 views

  •  
    This is an interactive multimedia site designed to get Tween girls excited about Science and reaffirm that it's cool if you already do. I spent a little time poking around the videos and games, and they wer nice, gave an overview, seemed engaging.  What I especially liked though was the Projects page, where you're given a ton of options, including submitting your own projects. Another gem on the site is the "For Teachers and "For Parents" pages. This quote especially caught my eye. "Every girl can be a SciGirl with a groundbreaking new TV show and interactive website that will transform the way tween girls look at science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). "  Here is an additional link that takes you to the site's Educational Philosophy. http://www.pbs.org/teachers/scigirls/philosophy/

21 Things for the 21st Century Educator - Home - 0 views

  •  
    The purpose of this course is to provide "Just in Time" training through an online interface for K-12 educators based on the National Educational Technology Standards for Teachers (NETS-T). These standards are the basic technology skills every educator should possess. In the process, educators will develop their own skills and discover what students need in order to meet the NETS for Students, as well as the new MMC Online Experience requirement. Participants who fulfill all of the requirements have the opportunity to earn SBCEU's. To learn more about the session, look under the tab "The 21 Things". We hope you take advantage of this unique opportunity.

Technology Integration for Teachers - Home - 0 views

  •  
    The purpose of this site is to take an extensive list of websites that are considered high quality, reliable, and valuable and organize them in a way that even "non-techy" teachers can utilize them. It took around 10 years to collect these resources, but new ones are found every day. All of these websites have been recommended by other teachers and educational organizations and qualify as "the best". You'll find support for all core curriculum areas. In addition, you will find lesson plans, multimedia, and primary sources to enhance your students' learning environment.

Valedictorian Speaks Out Against Schooling in Graduation Speech by Erica Goldson - 0 views

  • However, in this way, we do not really learn. We do whatever it takes to achieve our original objective.
    • Michael Wacker
       
      This is well stated and exactly why I believe there is such a huge disparity between teaching and learning.
  • I contend that I am a human being, a thinker, an adventurer – not a worker
  • A worker is someone who is trapped within repetition – a slave of the system
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • We will break down the walls of corruption to let a garden of knowledge grow throughout America
  • I am now enlightened, but my mind still feels disabled. I must retrain myself and constantly remember how insane this ostensibly sane place really is.

American classrooms are outdated. Slate seeks your great ideas for how to modernize the... - 0 views

  • Slate is seeking your best ideas for transforming the American school. We're asking you to describe or even design the classroom for today, a fifth-grade classroom that takes advantage of all that we have learned since the 19th century about teaching, learning, and technology and what you think we have yet to learn. All entries must have a written description, and we strongly encourage submitting a sketch or a plan, so fellow readers can help visualize your ideas
