Five Ideas for Using Pop Culture to Inspire Elementary Students | Edutopia - 2 views

  •  
    Excerpt: "I'm not sure if we can successfully connect with our students without dabbling in their after school activities. I'm not saying you have to sing along with Justin Bieber (I like to rile up my girls by calling him "Justin Beaver") or even enjoy SpongeBob's silly antics. But you absolutely have to acknowledge the fact that your students value this, love it even. It gets them up in the morning, pulls them through the day. It's their life. And if you don't care about it, they know. And it definitely influences the culture of the classroom."

  •  
    From one of the comments: "Go Vermont!! I've always said there are 49 states...and then there's Vermont! They're such independent thinkers.  They care and watch out for everyone, including children...and teachers. And have 2 great senators to boot. My daughter's certified to teach there; maybe she should move for her sanity."

    "On the surface, people who are constantly late don't seem to care about themselves or others, no matter how many times they are scolded and joked about. It just goes in one ear and out the other. So what can be done?"

Four decades of failed school reform - The Washington Post - 54 views

  •  
    A history of teaching/learning initiatives from a retiring teacher. "I saw countless reforms come and go; some even returned years later disguised in new education lingo. Some that were touted as "best practices" couldn't work, given Alexandria's demographics. Others were nothing but common-sense bromides hyped as revolutionary epiphanies. All of them failed to do what I believe to be key to teaching: to make students care about what they're studying and understand how it's relevant to their lives."
