The Buck Institute for Education (BIE) received a generous grant from the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation to help promote and provide deeper learning opportunities for teachers and students. Recognizing that 11,000 teachers will participate in BIE's 3-day PBL 101 workshop in 2012, the Hewlett Foundation helped BIE expand its professional development resources and expertise online. Now BIE can work with every school and every teacher through PBL University (PBLU). This summer, PBLU will pilot several Common Core aligned Math & English/Language Arts projects with complementary 2-week online classes. Teachers can receive PBL Teacher Certification from BIE, if they choose to complete all the necessary classes and implement the project with their students.

In the knowledge economy, knowledge and content are no longer sufficient – everyone has access to many sources of content and knowledge. You cannot compete on what everyone knows. As you move up the hierachy, it becomes more difficult to compete on individual competency – everyone is highly skilled and experienced at the top. It is hard to compete when everyone is so similar.

Social capital is derived from employees’ personal and professional networks.

google apps Google Forms forms online data collection

shared by Andrew Williamson on 05 Sep 09 - Cached

For your weekly spelling test use simple 1-10 or 1-20 numbered form (with a name question too of course) and ask the children to type in their answers as you read out the list of words. Once these are submitted apply formula to judge if they are correct or not and it becomes self marking.

  If we had a 1:1 program and we used Google forms our data collection and analysis would become very efficient.

Another useful post by one of my favourite Edubloggers. This guy just keeps on keeping on! This post is about google forms and how they can be used in the classroom. I used Google forms to create the staff survey on the 1:1 program. Imagine the students using this for the end of the week spelling test or maths diagnostics or any of these data collecting excersises completed using google forms and then instantly sent to a spread sheet.

teacher interactive curriculum

shared by Andrew Williamson on 24 Oct 10 - No Cached

University of Melbourne primary education expert Jan Deans said schools were drawn to learning through play as a reaction to a crowded curriculum and the focus on national testing (NAPLAN).
- Andrew Williamson on 24 Oct 10
  
  I have witnessed a direct influence if national testing on our school curriculum. The constant pressure to lift results in the areas of maths and literacy is forcing some schools to create streamed maths groups. We have set up streamed maths groups in grades 2 - 6 and literacy groups from 3-6. The philosophy behind this is to target the specific needs of each group rather than trusting the teacher to create an effective differentiated learning environment. The direct impact of such a set up is that the timetable becomes even more rigid. Students on the margins of learning levels miss out on the positive learning experiences of their peers. The nature of the Maths and literacy "hour" means that its very difficult to develop long term, deep and ongoing learning situations for students.

Students in Grades 3 and 4 this term will be investigating the factors which affect the survival of organisms living in the sea through our unit “Testing the Waters”. They will learn to distinguish between biotic and abiotic factors in the environmentand describe human influences which affect the survival of living things. We’ll be going on a fantastic excursion to Rickett’s Point to see some real sea life and talk to some local experts about our local marine environment in Melbourne’s Port Phillip Bay.
