  • A teacher/instructor/professor obviously plays numerous roles in a traditional classroom: role model, encourager, supporter, guide, synthesizer.

      What other roles can you think of that teachers might play?

      Coach, babysitter.
  • This model works well when we can centralize both the content (curriculum) and the teacher
  • Technological networks have transformed prominent businesses sectors: music, television, financial, manufacturing. Social networks, driven by technological networks, have similarly transformed communication, news, and personal interactions. Education sits at the social/technological nexus of change

  • ADHD is in epidemic proportions in our children. While this may sound like a panic statement it is not intended to incite panic. It doesn’t even have to be a crisis, except that children with ADHD test the educational system at every turn. And the educational system is failing these children. Our answer to this seems to be to blame the students, medicate them, and insist that they continue in the system that is not equipped to handle them.
  • This is the dilemma facing may schools today. Institutional school settings are based on a model of children from a different era. Children today, even those without ADHD, seem to be wired differently from the students of one hundred years ago. From a very early age we bombard them with stimulation. Before a baby can even turn over by themselves they have music, lights, and sound in their cribs, in the form of toys, mobiles, and stuffed animals that make noises or lullabies. By the time they are toddling, many of their toys make sound, light up, or move.

    A article that talks about ADHD.

    My brother has severe ADHD. I don't believe the flashing lights and such of toys really play into how easily distracted ADHD students are. Noises such as a drop of a pencil can distract them which probably happened 100 years ago just now we're more aware and educated with mental health. His teacher does things that makes games with a trampoline.

      important to know when working with deaf children
  • Cochlear Implants Cochlear Implants help some deaf people hear, but they don’t work for all. Surgery is required. Part of the implant stays inside the body forever. Part of it is worn outside the body. Some deaf people with a CI can speak well because they practice speech and listening and hear many sounds. It is not the same as a behind-the-ear hearing aid. It does not make the “eee” sound when it is taken off or in use. How do cochlear implants work? Cochlear implants have a microphone, cord, speech processor, transmitting coil, electrode array, volume, and battery. They are very different from hearing aids. How are they different? The sounds come from a computer processor which acts like your middle and inner ear. You can hear music, environmental sounds, people talking, T.V., people calling your name.
