Educational Leadership:Literacy 2.0:Teaching Media Literacy - 0 views

      Only 76% of my current students have internet access at home via laptop or PC
  • U.S. students may learn something about evaluating sources in research paper assignments and learn to recognize propaganda in social studies, but that's often the extent of their media literacy instruction.

      We have more than 1400 students at my middle school; we share two carts of laptops with 30 laptops each among more than 400 sixth graders--very limited amount of access time.

  • spurred by students' access to unlimited information on the Internet.
  • Can students learn to recognize bias, track down sources, and cross-check information?
  • One of the most basic strands of media literacy emphasizes the skills and knowledge students need to locate and critically assess online content.
  • digital media literacy skills are vastly underrepresented in the curriculum for all but the most advanced students (as, indeed, are offline critical-thinking and reading-comprehension skills).
  • Choosing appropriate search engines, following relevant links, and judging the validity of information are difficult challenges, not only for students of all ages, but also for most adults, including many teachers.
  • Although based on offline rather than online media literacy, the study found that explicit media literacy instruction increased both traditional literacy skills, such as reading comprehension and writing, and more specific media-related skills, including identification of techniques various media use to influence audiences.
  • From video games to social networks, incorporating what students are doing online into the school curriculum holds great, and perhaps the only, promise for keeping students engaged in learning

Generation M2: Media in the Lives of 8- to 18-Year-Olds - Kaiser Family Foundation - 15 views

  •  
    Today, 8-18 year-olds devote an average of 7 hours and 38 minutes (7:38) to using entertainment media across a typical day (more than 53 hours a week). And because they spend so much of that time 'media multitasking' (using more than one medium at a time), they actually manage to pack a total of 10 hours and 45 minutes (10:45) worth of media content into those 7½ hours.

    I couldn't find any information on this subject prior to. Also work a site and if you are ever involved in doing some visitor writing for me if probable feel free to let me know, I know your know-how on this. I must speak we should have an online discussion on this. If you are ever interested in doing some visitor writing for me if probable feel free to let me know, I'm always look for people to check this out web site - https://essayacademia.com/ .

    Education is very useful! It's easier for me to gain knowledge visually than to spend energy on writing something. I have never liked writing essays. It took me a lot of time and effort to compose the text. And it got worse at the university. Therefore, it is better sometimes to use additional resources. After I turned to the site https://www.rush-my-essay.com/pay-for-essay/ I had twice as much free time. And I didn't have to suffer on my dissertation.

    For me, writing an essay has always been a nightmare. I couldn't put my thoughts together and write what I wanted. Once I decided to turn for academic ghost writing https://www.academicghostwriter.org/ help for writing my assignments. I was consulted and got my job on time. I'm glad I didn't have to sit for days writing an essay. Thus, I relieved myself of the burden.

    Yes, you must be prepared for anything when attending college. Articles and written works in particular. I had no idea how such intriguing and informative works were created before. Until I had to write residency personal statement editing service https://residencypersonalstatements.net/ . I discovered that you can only write a high-quality, well-designed work with experienced authors. What can you get a good grade for? As a result, best of luck to you.

Questions to ask as we ponder the latest PISA results - The Learner's Way - 0 views

  •  
    I am wanting to take a slightly different approach to this weeks post. The past week has seen the latest round of PISA results and the media has had a field day. Headlines have routinely attacked students, educators and education systems in equal measure. The Canberra Times reported that "Australian school scores plummet on world stage", the Sydney Morning Herald led with "Alarm bells': Australian students record worst result in global tests" and The Weekend Australian went with "PISA global educational rankings: Schools fail on maths, science".

Social media: It's the end of adherence as we know it - whydot pharma - 0 views

  • In the near future, pharma companies will thus need to make a compelling case to patients and the government as to why treatment adherence is worth it. They will need to generate exact data on what it means to be adherent and what the impact will be if you are not.  Social media can be a great way of gathering this data
    • Meri Walker
       
      Exactly! And this is not just true about medical recommendations, it's true about ALL professional "advice." People who sell professional services of any kind have simply GOT to get social media! And this goes DOUBLE for teachers!

    Social media's role in patient "adherence" - also goes for education!

Challenge Based Learning - About - 0 views

  • Students embrace media that presents participants with a challenge and requires them to draw on prior learning, acquire new knowledge, and tap their creativity to fashion solutions. The entertainment networks have capitalized on this formula with shows like The Amazing Race, Top Chef, Trading Spaces, and Project Runway in which participants creatively draw on their knowledge and resources to create appropriate solutions to challenges. To address the need to create new ways of engaging students to achieve, Apple worked with educators across the country to develop the concept of Challenge Based Learning.
