Brittanica lodged a complaint, and here, you can see what it complained about as well as Nature’s response. Nature compared articles from both organizations on various topics and sent them to experts to review.

    Excellent perspective on "The 'W' Word" - use it wisely for what it is - high school and college kids shouldn't be citing any general knowledge encyclopedias for serious research - but that doesn't mean there aren't some excellent uses for it.

Spatial Learning: A Powerful Teaching Tool by @richardjarogers - 11 views

  •  
    "Young and inexperienced with rose-tinted goggles: I was mindful of my responsibilities as a new Science teacher. Expectations were high. When the Deputy Head of the school suddenly asked to observe one of my Year 9 Physics lessons I knew I had to perform well. As a thriving school with a great reputation, Denbigh definitely set the bar high. My Year 9 kids were typical 13 and 14-year-olds. Some days they were great and some days they'd just had enough. Keeping them on-task was a challenge for an unskilled teacher like me."

Education 2.0 - Edmodo - Free Private Microblogging For Education - 28 views

      If you are fearful of Facebook and MySpace then you need to create an Edmodo account. Edmodo was designed specifically for educational purposes. You must be a teacher, student, or parent to gain access. It allows you all the amenities of those other social networking sites but with a lot more security/privacy.
    • Maryalice Kilbourne
       
      You are so right. I already love edmodo!
    • Denise Krefting
       
      Is it COPPA Compliant?
    • Luv2ride
       
      I've used Edmodo for 3 years now. It has revolutionized my teaching to the degree that I don't know what I'll do if I ever have to stop using it.
    • Herb Schulte
       
      That is great question. And do you need parent permission for students to use it?
    • Jordan Moody
       
      Is it free?
    • Gil Anspacher
       
      Yes, it is free and you can manage student accounts. It is only open to those you invite in and only educators may obtain an account. You may monitor and moderate all conversations, administer quizes, embed media, etc. The groups feature is very effective and you may grant access to your group to other classes. We just had 700+ students interacting in a global collaboration project, Digiteen. Students do not need an email address to use Edmodo, so under 13 is OK for CIPA. It looks much like Facebook, so kids love it and parents need some education on it as they fear it at first. Parents can get monitoring access so they may monitor their child's activity. It is a great tool to show parents how social media is used in education.

Bertrand Russell's Inductivist Turkey - 3 views

  • The turkey found that, on his first morning at the turkey farm, he was fed at 9 a.m. Being a good inductivist turkey he did not jump to conclusions. He waited until he collected a large number of observations that he was fed at 9 a.m. and made these observations under a wide range of circumstances, on Wednesdays, on Thursdays, on cold days, on warm days. Each day he added another observation statement to his list. Finally he was satisfied that he had collected a number of observation statements to inductively infer that “I am always fed at 9 a.m.”. However on the morning of Christmas eve he was not fed but instead had his throat cut. It doesn’t matter how many cases we list during our inductivist reasoning, nothing guarantees that the next case will lay in this&nbsp;inference&nbsp;we deducted from our observations, as the possible experiments and observations are infinite by number and type. The only valid scientific method is to test the theory using the assertions which can be deduced.

    "This is a maths resource that can be used to challenge pupils to complete a magic square, using only the numbers provided, to make sure that each row, column and diagonal all add up to the focused magic number. The resource provided challenges students to add up to 9, 12, 15 & 18, and could be used as a homework challenge, an additional classroom activity, or as a main activity within a maths lesson. Challenge pupils to work on two different methods for each magic number. This activity could be adapted with larger number, and other mathematic operations"

TIC para innovar: Clase invertida (flipped classroom) ventajas y desventajas - 1 views

  • Clase invertida (flipped classroom) ventajas y desventajas &nbsp; La clase invertida propone que el aprendizaje de los estudiantes se suscite fuera de la clase. Este modelo pedagógico o estrategia didáctica ofrece una forma de aprendizaje semi presencial ya que los estudiantes pueden aprender desde sus casas mediante juegos, presentaciones, videos, podcast, ejercicios en línea, y tanto los docentes como estudiantes interactúan para resolver problemas. Esto denota un consumo menor de tiempo en el aula que se puede ocupar para otras actividades, sin más deseo compartirles las ventajas y desventajas de la Clase invertida: Ventajas: 1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Adaptabilidad de la clase se adapta al ritmo del estudiante. 2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Mejora significativamente el ambiente de trabajo en el aula. 3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Incrementa la atención educativa a cada estudiantes 4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Empata el estilo de aprendizaje de cada estudiante. 5.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Transforma la clase en un espacio de interactividad 6.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Incluye a todos los miembros de la comunidad educativa en el proceso de aprendizaje. 7.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Promueve la creatividad y el pensamiento crítico. 8.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Facilita la entrega de tareas y su revisión. 9.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Disminuye el riesgo del incumplimiento en clase. 10.&nbsp;&nbsp; Permite la reusabilidad del material propuesto. 11.&nbsp;&nbsp; Origina el ahorro de tiempo extra para el profesor. 12.&nbsp;&nbsp; Promueve la interacción social. 13.&nbsp;&nbsp; Incentiva a la resolución de problemas en clase. 14.&nbsp;&nbsp; Mejora la actitud de los estudiantes hacia la materia. 15.&nbsp;&nbsp; Incrementa el interés el interés y la motivación. 16.&nbsp;&nbsp; Genera la satisfacción de toda la comunidad educativa al estar inmersos en el proceso. 17.&nbsp;&nbsp; El feedback se genera de manera inmediata. 18.&nbsp;&nbsp; Acerca a los estudiantes al conocimiento de manera simple. 19.&nbsp;&nbsp; Evalúa no solo el resultado, si no, el proceso entero. 20.&nbsp;&nbsp; Los estudiantes son responsables de su propio aprendizaje. 21.&nbsp;&nbsp; Permite la regeneración de contenidos las veces necesarias. Desventajas 1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Se debe estructura el plan en mejora de la metodología. 2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Se enfoca en los recursos más que en la metodología en sí. 3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; No toma en cuenta la brecha digital existente. 4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Los vídeos en casa deben ser asistidos por algún representante, demandando tiempo. 5.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbs
