    Sal Khan has been teaching via YouTube for over two years and has Bill and Melinda Gates helping him run his Academy.  This is a great model for instruction which frees up teachers to be me.  Students at  Bullis are watching the videos in advance of class to learn the skill, then come to class to practice.  The teacher spends his time coaching and helping. Advanced students work ahead and do enrichment.

    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.

  • Clickers help instructors actively engage students during the entire class period, gauge their level of understanding of the material being presented, and provide prompt feedback to student questions.
  • Another benefit of clickers over traditional active learning methods is that they follow the principles of game-based learning.
  • Best Practices for Implementing Clickers in the Classroom*
  • The best way to help instructors is to provide mentoring and support from other instructors using clicker systems.

    Interesting study about the use of Clickers in the classroom.  This study does not show statistically significant differences between Clickers and Traditional Discussion but the perceptual survey indicates students prefer using the SRS system.
