Duolingo, the Chart-Topping Language App, Unveils a Platform for Teachers - 1 views

  •  
    Duolingo, the free, wildly popular language app, is taking its zero-ad, gamification approach to learning into the classroom today, with the launch of a new platform called Duolingo for Schools. Launched in 2012, Duolingo offers reading, listening, speaking and writing exercises split into different lessons ("skills") and levels (if you get a certain number wrong in a given level, you lose a life). Good example of how free app available on line are helping to solve the financial factor on developing countries and improving language learning.

    My y1s are really enjoying Scratchjr, great for younger children, and as it's a free app it's good for the school budget too.
  •  
    My 5 year old daughter loves Scratch Jr. She had a tutorial from us initially, but was able to use the software independently very quickly, to her own delight.
  •  
    I as a teacher love scratch. And of course for the students too, scratch is fun way of learning.
  •  
    I am began teaching coding this semester in my computer lab. I haven't played with scratch too much but look forward to using with my kids next week.
  •  
    I have used the computer version of Scratch with students in grades 3-6 (in Australia). My colleagues were amazed when students produced maze games where if the player bumped into the maze walls they were returned to the start - little did they know how easy it was once we got the hang of the coding. Great stuff.

    Actually there is also a new curriculum for Scratch with worksheets: http://scratched.gse.harvard.edu/guide/download.html It has also been translated into several languages. This is a very helpful tool if you want to start introducing programming to a class. I have been using it now twice, and I am happy with the outcome. In particular the worksheets are so helpful and give you more time to support the individual child.
  •  
    I have use code.org as an introduction before using scratch. It allows the children participate it in games involving angry birds, plants vs zombies, flappy birds and the disney frozen characters.

Flipping Bloom's Taxonomy | Powerful Learning Practice - 10 views

  •  
    I want to eliminate completely the Bloom's taxonomy. Flipping it could be interesting, however it drives teachers and policy makers to continue CLINGING to a very old paradigm and old categorization. Moreover, hierarchies belong to LINEAR THINKING, it is still a traditional way of thinking.

    Effective everywhere!

    Great article. Thank you!

    Thank you for the article. Completely agree with the author (about the flipping thing). Crativity-avaluation-analysis etc leads to learning - that's for sure.

    Thank you for this site, I used it many years ago and had forgotten what a great resource for ESL students!
  •  
    Hi nice web site I'll check it out. Thanks.
  •  
    As a teacher of 5-6 year old ESL learners in a bilingual school, I find this website really useful for activities, songs, games etc for teaching English in a fun way. It is very interractive and child friendsly. Children can explore activities alone or it can be used as part of a teaching session. They can also leave their own comments about activities they liked. I think someone has already mentioned it below but I love it so much I had to post again so everyone can see. Highly recommended for any teachers of young learners, whether these kids are second language learners or not.
