"Five Ways Teachers Can Use Technology to Help Students Posted: 05/07/2013 8:34 am Follow éducation , Classroom Technology , Open Source , Public Schools , Teacher Technology , Technology In The Classroom , Technology News SHARE THIS STORY 57 273 34 Submit this story By Darrell M. West and Joshua Bleiberg Thomas Edison once said, "Books will soon be obsolete in the public schools... our school system will be completely changed inside of ten years." Amazingly enough, however, one of our nation's most important inventors was proven quite wrong. The American education system has a remarkable resistance to innovation and the classroom experience has changed very little in the 100 years since Edison's prediction. Advances in information technology have revolutionized how people communicate and learn in nearly every aspect of modern life except for education. The education system operates under the antiquated needs of an agrarian and industrial America. The short school day and the break in the summer were meant to allow children to work on family farms. Schools have an enduring industrial mentality placing students in arbitrary groups based on their age regardless of their competencies. Technology has failed to transform our schools because the education governance system insulates them from the disruptions that technology creates in other organizations. The government regulates schools perhaps more than any other organization. Rules govern where students study, how they will learn, and who will teach them. Education regulation governs the relationships of actors in the system and stymies the impact of innovative technologies. Furthermore the diffuse system of governance creates numerous veto points to limit innovation. To overcome these obstacles, we must persuade teachers that technology will empower them and help their students learn. We argue that there are five strategies for successful teacher adoption of education technology and that these principles will he

After reading chapter two of Blogs, Wikis, and Podcasts I was slightly hesitant about starting a blog for the school. The author mentioned this website as a good resource for parent letters and student guidelines. This is the homepage wiki for Bud's resources, but there are many good links shared on it. Good luck!

From YouTube to Edutopia--and of course, TeachThought--this post includes 13 timeless project-based learning resources for the classroom.

Tons of resources for setting up science lessons for any age student.

This website has some great video lessons, complete with lesson objectives, notes for the instructor, and links to external resources. It doesn't have anything for English, but it does have a big math and science section.

Lessons, interactives, calendar activities, and more, right at your fingertips. Read write think is a great resource for lesson plans but also has many types of free templates available for graphic organizers. I have primarily used read write think for brainstorming in the classroom as many of their organizational templates are great accommodation for visual learners or students who really benefit from structure.

A blog post with some great resources for the skills we have talked about in this course.

This website is an amazing resource for students and teachers. The Study Island website has aligned with state standards and created tests, activities, and games that promote student mastery of each standard. Students are able to use their Study Island account at school or at home and teachers can monitor their progress with the reports that are provided from the program. I think this site is an excellent resource for teachers to utilize in order to ensure that students are mastering the necessary standards. It can be very useful for differentiating instruction and using with small groups, or as a computer center station in the classroom.

This is a fantastic site that provides common core math curriculum materials as well as lesson plans that implement the common core standards. Great Resource!

These are some fabulous-looking tools! Everything from graph creation to time-line generators. . . a cool resource to click around on.
