Copy / Paste by Peter Pappas: The Reflective Principal: A Taxonomy of Reflection (Part IV) - 1 views

  •  
    The Reflective Principal: A Taxonomy of Reflection (Part IV) Reflection can be a challenging endeavor. It's not something that's fostered in school - typically someone else tells you how you're doing! Principals (and instructional leaders) are often so caught up in the meeting the demands of the day, that they rarely have the luxury to muse on how things went. Self-assessment is clouded by the need to meet competing demands from multiple stakeholders. In an effort to help schools become more reflective learning environments, I've developed this "Taxonomy of Reflection" - modeled on Bloom's approach. It's posted in four installments: 1. A Taxonomy of Reflection 2. The Reflective Student 3. The Reflective Teacher 4. The Reflective Principal It's very much a work in progress, and I invite your comments and suggestions. I'm especially interested in whether you think the parallel construction to Bloom holds up through each of the three examples - student, teacher, and principal. I think we have something to learn from each perspective. 4. The Reflective Principal Each level of reflection is structured to parallel Bloom's taxonomy. (See installment 1 for more on the model) Assume that a principal (or instructional leader) looked back on an initiative (or program, decision, project, etc) they have just implemented. What sample questions might they ask themselves as they move from lower to higher order reflection? (Note: I'm not suggesting that all questions are asked after every initiative - feel free to pick a few that work for you.) Bloom's Remembering : What did I do? Principal Reflection: What role did I play in implementing this program? What role did others play? What steps did I take? Is the program now operational and being implemented? Was it completed on time? Are assessment measures in place? Bloom's Understanding: What was

Term Paper Subjects: Extremist Groups at Custom Papers and Essays - 0 views

  •  
    There are 3 major sections all papers comprehend: foreword, main part, and closure. By the time you finish reading this post, you'll get what your paper should contain, so we are going to disregard the investigation part and continue to preparing opening paragraph, subsequently body, and then closing paragraph. Naturally, intro at all times goes at the outset. It is supposed to kick off with an engaging opening element. More often than not, it's a couple of sentences. Having designed the opening, you are going to declare your thesis line. Thesis statement should always be brilliant, particular, theme-specific, neither too precise nor too large. Bear in mind, thesis statement points out the domain of your examination, so insure that it is well-bred.

    1. Copy the above code and paste into embed widget 'Other Html' box. 2. Put the source of your image where you see 'img src'. In the top photo I used an image in my own wikispace and in the second example I used an image from the internet. Remember to leave the space/showimage if you are using an image from wikispaces. 3. If you are making the second image map (the body) that links to images, you should upload the images you are going to use. 4. Enter your own links - either links to pages as in the first example or links to images as in the second. 5. You now need to enter the co-ordinates. The first example has 2 defined areas, and the second example has 5. You will see they start with 'area shape'. You can make as many as you wish. The co-ordinates are worked out as follows.

  • Blogging as Connective Writing Continuum: Posting assignments. (Not blogging) Journaling, i.e. “This is what I did today.” (Not blogging) Posting links (Not blogging) Links with descriptive annotation, i.e. “This site is about…” (Not really blogging either, but getting close depending on the depth of the description.) Links with analysis that gets into the meaning of the content being linked. (A simple form of blogging.) Reflective, meta-cognitive writing on practice without links. (Complex writing, but simple blogging, I think. Commenting would probably fall in here somewhere.) Links with analysis and synthesis that articulates a deeper understanding or relationship to the content being linked and written with potential audience response in mind. (Real blogging) Extended analysis and synthesis over a longer period of time that builds on previous posts, links and comments. (Complex blogging)

Web 2.0 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - 0 views

shared by Mike Leonard on 23 Mar 08 - Cached
  • Web 2.0 is a trend in World Wide Web technology, and web design, a second generation of web-based communities and hosted services such as social-networking sites, wikis, blogs, and folksonomies, which aim to facilitate creativity, information sharing, collaboration, and sharing among users. It is almost defined as the new era of the World Wide Web. The term became notable after the first O'Reilly Media Web 2.0 conference in 2004.[2][3] Although the term suggests a new version of the World Wide Web, it does not refer to an update to any technical specifications, but to changes in the ways software developers and end-users use webs. According to Tim O'Reilly: “ Web 2.0 is the business revolution in the computer industry caused by the move to the Internet as platform, and an attempt to understand the rules for success on that new platform.[4] ” Some technology experts, notably Tim Berners-Lee, have questioned whether one can use the term in a meaningful way, since many of the technology components of "Web 2.0" have existed since the early days of the Web.[5][6]
