Mimio Interactive Teaching Technologies - 72 views

      I'm not sure of the cost but this could be another alternative to smartboards.  The document camera would be REALLY beneficial and save in cost because teachers will not have to keep photocopying transparencies.

    Alternate to whiteboards
  •  
    I use a Mimio pad: it is awesome. I observed a demonstration at NSTA conference of document camera and I think it also includes a microscope attachment. The whole system seems phenomenal.
  •  
    It's a great system, and it's cheaper than a SMARTboard. I had one at my previous workplace. If I recall correctly, you can even use SMARTexchange activities with the mimio.

      Choose the type of source you want to cite.

      It's easy to overlook the great Citation Guide. There's an especially helpful guide for evaluation websites! Worth sharing with students.
    • Ms. Nicholson
       
      Thanks for the tips! I loved this site in college and now I get to share it with my students.

      The subscription for schools is sooo worth the money. The notebook feature is incredible and allows the user to practically write the paper as s/he takes notes. Awesome!
    • Jody Conrad
       
      How about teach them how to cite? Easybib is like the kid in the group who doesn't always do the best work. It's a good resource, but our students must learn to be smarter than an algorithm.

Developing Questions for Critical Thinking - 206 views

    Awesome tool for generating Bloom's verbs and questions. Gives teacher roles and student roles for each level of Bloom's.
  •  
    Elizabeth: Thanks for sharing this. As an Art teacher, I am thrilled to see so many graphic, design, and creative thinking skills being applied. It is a great feeling for us to see others finally understanding what the Arts can do for creative thinking and higher order thinking. It's what Artist's already know. Again great job of sharing.

Pieter Bruegel - 20 views

      Look closely at Bruegel's poem.  Make notes about what you see - objects, geographical features, people, animals, etc.
  • Pieter Bruegel the Elder

    You should try Poetry Genius for this. It is an amazing and growing app: http://genius.com/tags/poetry It's a place where you post your poem and your students can annotate in real-time. You can restrict it to just your class, or you can open it up to the community. They also have Literature Genius with some awesome pages (so far I have looked at Hawthorne and O'Connor--but there are a ton more http://lit.genius.com/.

Can we change the PD culture of communication? | eSchool News | eSchool News | 2 - 45 views

    • Sharin Tebo
       
      This reminds me of the Dual Language observations each month as part of the Principal PLCs. Very powerful experience and what an awesome amount of feedback for the classroom teacher and data to start conversations about instructional practice!
  • Could we in the United States create school cultures in which instructing colleagues on how they might improve performance is not a rare and emotion-laden event, but rather an accepted and valued mechanism in the development of desirable professional practice?
    • Monica Williams-Mitchell
       
      I think RARE is part of the issue. The fact that we don't often have observers in our classrooms, and we don't often talk about the practices that are effective makes for a feeling of being singled out if criticism is offered.

20 Ways to Provide Effective Feedback to Your Students ~ Educational Technology and Mob... - 215 views

    • Elizabeth Sato
       
      These four questions are AWESOME.  I want to research Dinham 2002 & 2007.  It's true as adults, why don't we give kids the same consideration?
    • Elizabeth Sato
       
      I like the idea of concentrating on one thing -- let the kids know what I'm looking for during the week.  Eg. on the board it could say "conference focus"
    • Sharin Tebo
       
      Great for conferring to really help students focus on improving one writing skill
  • Utilize this strategy when grading papers or tests. This strategy allows you the necessary time to provide quality, written feedback.
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • Alternate due dates for your students/classes.
  • Educate students on how to give feedback to each other.
  • Model for students what appropriate feedback looks like and sounds like.

Creating Remarkable Poetry Through Subtraction - 103 views

  •  
    Great, efficient way to teach one way to write poetry
  •  
    Awesome activity! Interesting to teach in so many contexts: poetry, economy of words, even censorship - a different take on it. Also meshes perfectly with the novel catch 22 and Yosarrian censoring the letters.
