Adaptive learning software is replacing textbooks and upending American education. Shou... - 67 views

  •  
    Almost everyone who thinks seriously about education agrees that this paradigm-sometimes derided as "sage on a stage"-is flawed. They just can't agree on what should replace it. Flipped classrooms? Massive open online courses? Hands-on, project-based learning?

The new way to create flipped video in 60 seconds without adding software (using Office... - 83 views

  •  
    Nice step by step tutorial with screenshots on how to use Office Mix to easily create videos.
  •  
    This is really nice, however, one must be careful that the video created is ADA compliant. Written transcripts and/or CC must always be made available. Our institution, as well as others that I am aware of, will not allow faculty to use anything that ADA compliant.

Artificial intelligence | Playlist | TED.com - 13 views

    I used to promote teaching K-8 computational thinking and coding because of the social justice issues around access to the language of power, economic opportunities, and a belief that learning CT enhances overall academic competencies for those likely to be challenged to succeed in schools.. Now I'm an advocate for a different set of reasons that seem more preeminent. We need everyone to learn computational thinking because ethics and protecting the right to spirituality/secular humanist values seem to be what computers won't be able to do better than humans. Therefore we better have humans who are ethically grounded, informed by the humanities, and competent to understand the implications of the computer software we create. This is a great watch list or podcast list to spur considerations of this urgent matter of the unregulated world of AI.

    Good article making the case for using Destiny Quest's social features.
  •  
    Thank you for info on Destiny Quest. I am looking to see what software our library uses. I teach 5th graders and I have been in contact with GoodReads. They feel their site is not age appropriate for our students, so we have chosen to blog and rate our books on our own. But, it really isn't the same as having access to thousands of other people's opinions. Thanks again for your insight.

The future of the classroom - Fortune Tech - 5 views

  • the future of education really hinges on the shifting roles of teacher and student.
  • students will learn at their own pace, using software that adapts to their strengths and weaknesses. In other words: aided by emerging technology, the teacher-student relationship—and the classroom itself—will be remade. That is the coming education revolution.
  • front of a classroom, a teacher would monitor students' progress and assist those who are struggling on an ad-hoc basis.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • Gates Foundation has invested just under $9 million in a program administered by education nonprofit EDUCAUSE that will allow 20 schools to figure out a solid, financially sustainable way to achieve personalized learning as part of a program called Next Generation Learning Challenges. All of the schools awarded grants will use some combination of digital and traditional instruction.
  • every move a student makes in a digital course will be tracked and analyzed to not only change a program to meet a student's current needs, but to track a student's progress—and determine their educational needs—not just during a given course, but throughout their lives.
  • "The old model of getting educated in four years and coasting for the next 40 years" is growing increasingly less relevant, says Andrew Ng, co-CEO
