The Balance of Screen Time | Edutopia - 0 views

      This goes along with Mr. Centra's comment about wanting some PD/training on how to teach in a digital learning environment. This is not a challenge that can be approached from one single direction. We want students to be empowered by technology, but teaching them that there is a time and a place depending on the learning goals is utlimately the challenge for the dgital 21st educator in my opinion.
  • Recently, when teaching this strategy of incorporating backchannels, a participant raised an interesting question: "What happens when a student has to speak up without the aid of a screen?"

      Honestly, I think backchannels are what we should be using during our own meetings, as there are so many times when we have comments or questions but we don't have the opportunities to address them at that moment. I had this idea during last week's MS/HS Divisional meeting while Mr. Centra was talking with us.

  • However, what if students explored in the physical world, watched Grover, and then created their own videos to demonstrate their understanding of these abstract concepts? What if they published these videos to a class website or blog to interact with a broader audience and extend the learning context beyond the classroom?
  • Students should learn to interact in a face-to-face setting, experience the physical world and go outside. However, much like we cannot say that all television rots our brains, we need to look beyond saying that all screen time is bad for our students. To do that, I like to ask three questions: Is it appropriate? Is it meaningful? Is it empowering?

Innovative Ideas for Engaging Your Teachers during Workshop Days - 0 views

  • we are striving to flip the delivery of some of the information our teachers need. The goal is to provide more collaboration and discussion time during the precious moments when the whole staff is together.
  • “flipped” sessions; one that has a video component, and one that has a reading portion, and then discussion during our face to face time.

      I tried TodaysMeet as a backchannel during my iPads session--they weren't into it, but that doesn't mean we cannot try it again to keep the discussion flowing, especially if we do decide to use the flipped model for our own session we deliver. The time can be spent on interactions, meaningful discussions and questions raised from the flipped portion of videos, readings, etc.

    I think this is definitely something we can use when we strive to make the most out of our PD days/sessions!

      Interesting perspective that confronts how we view Khan Academy--maybe a good talking point for discussion with those participants in the Khan Academy Workshop as part of our Flipped Learning PD in Oct.??
