Copyright 101: A Simple Lesson in Licenses - YouTube - 7 views

  •  
    A simple video tutorial I created for my students including these essential questions: What is copyright? How long does it last? What are the kinds of copyright? How can I copyright my own work? How can I find works I can use freely? Do I still have to give credit for the work? How can i buy license for professional work? What are the penalties for not following copyright?

Uh oh: Wi-Fi exposure may be worse for kids than we thought - Salon.com - 10 views

  •  
    Make sure girls don't put their cell phone in their bra (not kidding) and there are many concerns about wifi for kids. We need to consider and review this information -- although there are no long term studies of wifi and kids and nothing linking wifi - there are concerns particularly with RF/EMF exposure. Sleeping with your cell phone or other wireless device is definitely a bad idea. (Hat Tip Diane Ravitch)

Scoop.it Passes Diigo as EdReach's #3 Referrer | EdReach - 10 views

  • But the past couple of weeks there’s been a rolling stone gathering lots of moss- and that stone is Scoop.it.
  • Well, I haven’t seen much happen with Scoop.it and educators for the past few months, but then something big happened: Scoop.it launched Scoop.it for Education.
  • I know many educators are fond of Paper.li, another link/newspaper tool, but I’ve never found  that paper-like experience to be of much value, because it’s so… bland.
  • ...1 more annotation...
  • Paper.li creates these “news” papers based on the people you follow on Twitter, not on your Tweets. Scoop.it creates their paper based on your Scoop.it bookmarks, so it is somewhat more of an authentic experience.

Book: How to be an Outstanding Primary Middle Leader by @ZoeParamour - 0 views

  •  
    "When Zoë's book came up for review I put my hand up to read it straight away. I currently work as a Primary Middle Leader (Literacy Lead and EYFSCoordinator) in a larger than average primary school in the North of England. In the last two years, we have undergone a lot of changes, both internal due to staffing and curriculum and changes and external as we have become part of the largest MAT in the city. This has meant an increase in responsibility and accountability, not only for myself but other middle leaders who I have had the chance to meet with."

Pupils with autism twice as likely to be bullied - what can teachers do? - 0 views

  •  
    "In the UK, there are about 100,000 children with autism - about one in 100 - according to the NHS and 70% are educated in mainstream schools. Learning and socialising with neurotypical children can pose a challenge for pupils with autism who find it hard to read facial expressions and body language and have difficulties understanding the intentions of their peers. They may also prefer to play alone which sets them up as targets in the playground, with other children finding it easier to pick on them as they do not have a support structure around them."

Because I am married to a professor of chemistry. Here are a couple of 'end of the semester' observations for students to ponder."

Book: How to be an Outstanding Primary School Teacher by @HeadTeachDunn - 2 views

  •  
    "With so many expectations, requirements and scrutiny of primary school teachers, it is easy to become formulaic in your practice. This is a shame, as the initial enthusiasm for the job gets waned, and giving young students the opportunity to shine becomes less focused on whole-child development. However, to become an outstanding teacher demands consistency, focus and dedication. Outstanding teachers are always on the lookout for new ideas, but sometimes the tried-and-tested classroom activities and techniques can offer a strong system to help your pupils shine, despite curriculum restraints imposed."
