    In today's age of big data, words and phrases like "adaptive learning," "personalization" and "differentiation" are getting tossed around with increasing frequency. What exactly do these terms mean and to what extent do they overlap?

blogs writing comments grading students

  • Currently I correct most of my student’s spelling and grammar when I approve their comments
  • I’d think it would be a different matter with older children.
  • If the blog is of academic nature and is going to be read by other students/parents/teachers, then it’s our job to show them why conventions like spelling and grammar matter.
  • ...11 more annotations...
  • Again, it’s our job to show students how a writer’s audience affects how they write.
  • Speaking for all the poor writers out there, having someone always on my back about my grammar would put an end to my writing–it did for 27 years–from the time I graduated from college to the time I started blogging. So for me and all the other poor writers out there like me, would you rather we just stop writing? or is our voice valuable enough that maybe, just maybe, you could look past out inability to use proper grammar.
  • I feel that correcting everything, all the time, would kill their enthusiasm for using and experimenting with the language.
  • I was reading a grade 1 teacher’s blog, and the teacher left the childrens’ posts as is, but following each, put the correct form in parentheses. This both keeps the sense of ownership for the student, but allows for readers to understand the message clearly
  • I do not correct comments for a few reasons. First, they can be too numerous at times. Secondly, if I always do the editing work for them then students will never do it themselves. Third, I have several reluctant writers who never get a word down on paper but will make an effort if they get to write on our blogs.
  • am having students occasionally reflect on their comments and set/review goals for future comments.
  • I think that if they saw a good conversation going on in the comments (maybe on another classroom’s blog) they may get the idea that comments are as important, if not more important than the post.
  • Student edited, teacher directed vs. teacher corrected. In this instance, student age is an important consideration. Revising and editing are part of the writing process, so I require it of my middle schoolers. I also rely on peer review and peer editing.
  • I would appreciate teachers correcting posts and comments. It might be slightly embarrassing if it is done through comments, but maybe devoting a part of class every week to go over things that the teacher has found looking through posts and comments could improve the student’s grammar skills.
  • I like to balance between writing for an audience who is expecting readable text and the writing abilities of the grade or age level blogging. It also changes if the post is a class assignment with expectations described on a rubric as opposed to a free choice writing post.
  • BTW – peer editing is one way to check for spelling and convention errors and fix them.

    Aristotle, one of the greatest thinkers in history, said "education is the best provision of old age". People learn and upgrade their skills and knowledge throughout their entire lives. Today, the number of students who decide to continue their education to college is greater than ever, due to the fact that the majority of rewarding careers created in the market demand higher education.

facebook privacy policy teens

shared by Teresa Ilgunas on 17 Oct 13 - No Cached
  • The giant social network on Wednesday lifted restrictions on kids ages 13 to 17 that kept them from sharing information with people they do not know. Until now, teens' posts on Facebook could be viewed only by friends and the friends of their friends.
  • Critics say loosening privacy restrictions on Facebook puts teens at risk.
  • As part of the changes, teens now can also let people "follow" them on Facebook and see posts that are made public, similar to Twitter.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • To parents and teens, Facebook is claiming they are giving them more options to protect their privacy. But in reality, they are making a teen's information more accessible, now that they have the option to post publicly," Chester said. "Today's announcement actually removes a safeguard that teens currently have."
  • Teens who choose to change their settings will be asked twice with a pop-up notification whether they are sure they want to share information broadly, Facebook said.
  • Research from the Pew Research Center has found that although teens are sharing more information about themselves on social media than they have in the past, they are taking steps to protect their privacy.

    This site is designed especially with the young learner in mind with its age-appropriate content and emphasis on visual and auditory learning. Glossopedia is the kind of site that you can leave open for students to explore and find a fast fact of the day, find their favorite image, or video Glossopedia Categories Geography and Places Nature and the Environment Technology Animals Earth and Space People and Cultures Human Body Chemistry Natural Forces This site is simple and visually pleasing. The font size is great for young learners. Words are hyperlinked to an audio pronunciation that is a real person, speaking really slowly at first then more quickly, and finally the written meaning of the word. Images and photos have a print button prominently displayed.

    "Glossopedia, is our multimedia online interactive encyclopedia, connecting kids to the world by supporting discovery of nature, animals, science, and culture. No other resource like it exists, primarily because GLOBIO owns or has long-term rights to all the content explored in Glossopedia."

  • Teachers start to look closely at the kinds of tasks that we’re asking students to do, and see that some work better than others. We refer to them as “portfolio-worthy assignments.”
  • So rather than tying a student’s grade level to their age or the number of hours accumulated, we can tie it to a body of work that shows student readiness
  • The portfolio is a body of evidence that demonstrates what a student can do and how the student has grown. In addition, as educators and parents we can see what the student is like as a learner and really understand them personally
