    Some great ideas on how to use google sketchup in the classroom. With "how too" guides for the teacher to use. This would be perfect in a 1:1 setting but could be used in the lab or on pc's in classroom

Creating an emotion graph using Google forms | ICT in my Classroom - 0 views

  • Your form is complete and now you just need to add the line graph itself to the linked spreadsheet. You will see in your spreadsheet that the header (top) row is filled in with the different events from left to right. Under each column heading add the average =AVERAGE(Range) formula for the cells below, say down to 100 cells below. This will average out the different responses from your form and return a single figure. Don’t worry the survey results should always be added below your average row. I like to add the “Rounded” formatting to these cells as well. Select these average figures and click the “Chart” tool and create a line graph from this data. (These average cells could also be hidden, select the row from the left and click hide row) Find some more detailed steps to making a chart here.

      This bit confuses me some what I would have to have a look at the spread sheet once the form is created
  •  
    Wow what a cool idea. You could do this in the Lab. Would be great if we had a 1:1 program. Independent self-analysis of visual, audio or written text. Very easy to create a google form. All students who have access to our email system can do this

Level 3 - Fitzroy North Primary School - 0 views

  • 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.

    This would be a great IWB morning starter as the children walk into the room. They could silently read through as you are doing the roll and lunch orders. One child could be the controller.

    This is a great online maths activity for the advanced thinkers (if you are going to use all four cards) but allows for the not so high achievers. Deffinately going to introduce this to my upper grade 4's

Assessment in UK schools: a convenient hypocrisy? | dougbelshaw.com/blog - 1 views

  • The reason for my inclusion of that particular Dilbert cartoon at the top of this post is that I reckon most UK teachers couldn’t differentiate between a Level 4b and 4a in their subject. In fact, the distinction’s pretty meaningless. I’ve seen some schools use the sub-levels as following: Level 4c – some work at Level 4 standard Level 4b – most work at Level 4 standard Level 4a – all work at Level 4 standard In that case, why use the sub-levels in the first place? It’s my belief that  Assessment for Learning, that buzz-phrase from a couple of years ago, has been hijacked and contorted into something it’s not. I’m certainly not arguing against students knowing where they’re at in a subject and how to improve. It’s just that using National Curriculum levels as a means for doing this smacks of laziness to me. Instead, professional teachers should be able to convey the key skills, processes and subject knowledge students need to be able to progress. That’s just good teaching.

      So is this what the national curriculum is going to look like when its juxtaposed against nation testing?
  •  
    Great post on Assessment in UK schools. Ties in with stuff about their national testing that they have had in place for more than a decade. This could be our crystal ball are we looking at our curriculum becoming narrower because we are all jumping through hoops? Assessment for learning? I dont think so. I would rather spend time planning great engaging lessons rather than lessons that are going to meet the National Testing criteria.
