Bloom's Taxonomy of Educational Objectives - 0 views

  • 1. Knowledge (Remembering previously learned material)
  • Mathematics: State the formula for the area of a circle.
  • 2. Comprehension (Grasping the meaning of material)
  • ...11 more annotations...
  • Mathematics: Given the mathematical formula for the area of a circle, paraphrase it using your own words.
  •  3. Application (Using information in concrete situations)
  • Mathematics: Compute the area of actual circles.
  • Mathematics: When you have finished solving a problem (or when a peer has done so) determine the degree to which that problem was solved as efficiently as possible.
  • 4. Analysis (Breaking down material into parts)
  • 5. Synthesis (Putting parts together into a whole)
  • Mathematics: Apply and integrate several different strategies to solve a mathematical problem.
  • 6. Evaluation (Judging the value of a product for a given purpose, using definite criteria)
  • Mathematics: Given a math word problem, determine the strategies that would be necessary to solve it.
  •  Bloom's use of the term application differs from our normal conversational use of the term. When working at any of the four highest levels of the taxonomy, we "apply" what we have learned. At the application level, we "just apply." At the higher levels, we "apply and do something else."
  • The main value of the Taxonomy is twofold: (1) it can stimulate teachers to help students acquire skills at all of these various levels, laying the proper foundation for higher levels by first assuring mastery of lower-level objectives; and (2) it provides a basis for developing measurement strategies to assess student performance at all these levels of learning.

  • The Waldorf School that we are looking at seems to look at kids as individuals and treats the curriculum as a journey not a deliverable. Sure, the rhetoric gets a bit crunchy at times, even for me, but I can’t deny that it has a strong appeal for me, especially in the context of the conversations I’ve been having the last seven years. But here’s is the irony: the school uses very little technology. That undoubtedly will play into any decision we make, but it’s not a deal breaker for me. My kids have lots of access at home, and I know they’ll love having me mentor them if it comes to that. (Really. I mean it.)

'Social Bookmarking' Site for Higher Education Makes Debut - Chronicle.com - 0 views

  • he way Brainify tries to set itself apart, however, is in its exclusivity, Mr. Goldberg said. Unlike general-interest sites like Delicious, Diigo.com, and Ma.gnolia.com, Brainify restricts membership to those with college e-mail addresses. And rather than link to fried-chicken recipes or the latest YouTube hit, users are likelier to bookmark animated illustrations of particle physics or explications of John Donne’s poetry.
  • “To artificially limit the size of the community, it artificially limits the use of the product,” said Mr. Scheinfeldt, who is also a history professor at George Mason.
  • Limiting access to those with college e-mail accounts could create a “walled garden,” excluding those not traditionally considered to be part of academe, said Melanie McBride, a new-media consultant who teaches part time at Centennial College, in Toronto.

Mr. Weiss - Biology Class Assignments (Frick Biology) - 3 views

  •  
    This was my website that I created for teaching biology at Frick. It's pretty basic, but it served it's purpose. Several of my students said it was helpful. Most of the links should still work, not sure if they all do though.

Boards Get Brains, Chalk Vanishes - 0 views

  • "It is a must-have technology," said Shawn Mishler, director of communications technology at Columbia's privately run elementary school. "My dream school would have 7-foot-diagonal, in-wall units in every classroom. That, however, requires a lot of in-wall space, which is not practical in Manhattan." During a recent visit to the school, students in a third-grade class used the board to demonstrate solutions to math problems. The children drew on the board with their fingertips and explained to the class how they came up with their answers.

Ten Ways to Get Smart With SMARTboard, Amber Price - 0 views

  • American Revo
  • lution ~ use KWL charts, for example — Grade 5 Communities ~ For example: What can you do in a suburban area? What can you do in an urban area? What can you do in a rural area? — Grade 2 Graphic Organizers — Circle maps, Tree maps
  • Interactive worksheets ~ There are Websites that allow you to create your own worksheets which can then be printed out. Why not create the worksheet for use on the SMARTboard? It could be used as a guided practice lesson or independent activity at the “SMARTboard Center” in your classroom. Students could work in pairs and check each other’s work or you could provide answer sheets for self-checking.
