      This social bookmarking site is easy to use and also provides you with an iPad app, android app, and a Diigolet bookmarking tool. You no longer need to save in your favorites just bookmark all of your favorite sites into Diigo and share them with friends, organize them in lists, or present them with their webslide creator.

      They even offer a Teacher console where you can create groups for your classroom. This allows you to have student accounts, without the need for an email address, and then your students can work in the same list, create individual lists, and share everything with only others in their group or publicy (if you choose).

  • Sheninger understands that while banning students from technology and social media is certainly easier, his job is not to do what is most convenient, but rather what is right for our students.  As a result, Sheninger publicly embraces the use of social media for himself and for his students.  
  • Sheninger, considered to be one of the most innovative principals in the country, will be joined by several of his teachers, students, board trustees and members of his community to discuss how New Milford High School uses technology as a student, parent, and community engagement tool.

education creativity

shared by D. S. Koelling on 19 Apr 11 - No Cached
  • Yes, group activity can provide the impetus for better framing of problems, which can lead to original solutions. But creativity is the "end result of many forms of intelligence coming together, and intelligence born out of collaboration and out of networks," to quote one of my co-workers, Robert Fabricant. When we collaborate with different kinds of thinkers, sometimes from different cultures and backgrounds, we individually struggle with ingrained behaviors that reduce our likelihood of manifesting creativity.
  • Instead of holding an hour-long meeting with a facilitator at the whiteboard, pen poised to capture ideas called out, what would happen if every person in the room were provided five minutes to generate ideas individually?
  • When we lose track of time in group discussion, we are often crafting an enjoyable group experience at the cost of surfacing everyone's unique perspectives and voices. We risk filling the time with consensus, rather than exploring divergent, multi-disciplinary viewpoints. It is in the friction between these views that we explore new patterns of thought.

  • this kind of teamwork requires knowing when not to work in teams. This sounds obvious, but we constantly struggle with the belief that we must be inclusive to succeed. When to diverge and when to converge: that is the question.
  • A useful tool to combat open-ended group dialogue is "timeboxing," the use of short, structured sprints to reach stated goals for individuals or teams.

    A case for rethinking how we generate ideas.

    Hi Laurie, Google+ is a new social network from Google. If you have an account (they are limiting access at the moment) you can use this link to create a short address, instead of a bunch of numbers google gave you.
