    Go to the 6:00 minute mark and listen to what teachers are doing to "Flip" the classroom. I recently saw an article about Bullis school doing this same thing. A VERY interesting idea - one that would work great with... oh say ... iTouch or iPad mobile devices? BYOT

      This could easilly be done using ActivInspire.
  • What's the approach? The students watch pre-recorded lectures the night before the class, when homework problems are traditionally done, then spend the time in class getting answers to questions, working on additional problems with partners, and getting one-on-one assistance from the teacher. No more lectures in class
  • How Backward Learning Works Roshan uses Microsoft PowerPoint to recreate problems from each chapter of the textbook. She turns on Camtasia and begins talking her way through the solution to the problem. "I'm just capturing my screen and my voice," she said. The recordings, which she edits and posts to a school-hosted site, a Camtasia-hosted site, as well as to iTunes, run between 10 and 30 minutes long. So far she's made 32 of them, covering six chapters in the book.

shared by Tony Bollino on 28 Jul 11 - No Cached
  • elementary mathematics students who acted out text in word problems were more accurate and less distracted than those who didn’t.
  • Embodied, or grounded, cognition posits that meaning in language comes when words or phrases are mentally mapped onto memories of real experiences and perceptions.
  • When we as readers are thinking about what we’re reading, we are embodying it even if we aren’t literally moving our arms. We are calling upon our experiences,”

    Good research on the use of visualization to solve math problems.

    This content could be really helpful for a workshop on digital photography. Especially if we're going to be doing any instruction for students using digital cameras and PhotoStory. Going over the "Rule of 3s" and white balance are really powerful before the students start collecting digital images.

    This series chronicles one school's journey to implement mobile devices in the school. They have the same concerns FCPS has. It will be interesting to follow their progress to see how they overcome the issues. Granted, this is one school and we are many, but the issues are similar.
