    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.

    Edmodo is an easy way to get your students connected so they can safely collaborate, get and stay organized, and access assignments, grades, and school messages.

    I use Edmodo in my school too and it is a great tool to communicate with students and parents, share resources with other teachers, assess, provide feedback... There are many things to do there!

    Edmodo was used in my previous school, it's like a learning-based version of facebook. Teachers can post links and videos for students to do their study at home, and it's easy for teachers to check on each student's progress and response rate.

    Awesome tool, will need whole school approach though which may be difficult for government schools and or third world countries where these platforms or use of technology is only made available at privileged school and rarely at home.

    awesome too. Our school is using a different app but I would like to try this especially for my own school to see how it works with my teachers and students.
  • paulitamena1 on 19 Oct 19
     
    I love it! I think it's a way of making parents close to what happen at class, as well as an amusing way of creating a relation with the students, it's not the conventional and serious way to which I am used to. I'll use it for sure.
  • taniahv on 25 Apr 20
     
    I have used Edmodo and it is a very good application to share content with the students, you can share websites links interesting for them. Besides, students can share too.
  • blenx4 on 17 Jun 20
     
    A great and safe tool to use with students, in my case due to the Quarantine situation, we had to move on to E-learning so quick with 7 - 8 years old students, the platform is ideally for older students but Edmodo helped a lot to keep a direct communication with students/parents in a safe online environment.
  • priyankapsn on 06 Jun 22
     
    It is a great tool to bring the learner, teacher and parent all three community and make the learning happen in a wholesome way. Learners being able to work on feedforwards from the teachers and peer feedback can be implied here.

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.

    Children take their first critical steps toward learning to read and write very early in life. The role of teachers in this process is of critical importance. Plain teaching can be easily enriched with a touch of online free educational tools that can make them more attractive to young learners.

    Socrative lets teachers engage and assess their students with educational activities on tablets, laptops and smartphones. Through the use of real time questioning, instant result aggregation and visualization, teachers can gauge the whole class' current level of understanding. Socrative saves teachers time so the class can further collaborate, discuss, extend and grow as a community of learners.
  • tgalles on 31 May 15
     
    Socrative is a fun way to engage students with either polls or quizzes. I use it for vocabulary instruction primarily but if they have a device it makes it easier for them to all participate.

'Teaching as a Design Science' by Diana Laurillard - 20 views

shared by Diana Laurillard on 26 May 14 - No Cached
  • Diana Laurillard on 26 May 14
     
    Teaching is changing. It is no longer simply about passing on knowledge to the next generation. Teachers in the 21st century, in all educational sectors, have to cope with an ever-changing cultural and technological environment. Teaching is now a design science. Like other design professionals - architects, engineers, town planners, programmers - teachers have to work out creative and evidence-based ways of improving what they do. But teaching is not treated as a design profession. Every day, teachers design and test new ways of teaching, using learning technology to help their learners. But their discoveries remain local. By representing and communicating their best ideas as structured pedagogical patterns, teachers could develop this vital professional knowledge collectively. Teacher professional development has not embedded in the teacher's everyday role the idea that they could discover something worth communicating to other teachers, or build on each others' ideas. Could the culture change? From this unique perspective on the nature of teaching, Diana Laurillard argues that a 21st century education system needs teachers who work collaboratively to design effective and innovative teaching.

    I never thought of it this way. It's a great concept. We need to understand that design is not about beauty, but about vision, about following a process and always trying to make a dent. And of course, this will only be achieved by the use of crowd wisdom and the sharing process.
  • bwhitingjr on 27 May 14
     
    Teaching by design is an interesting way to contemplate the way we teach. I suppose, I am always designing bridges to each and everyone of my students. One student understands the concept given in a traditional manner while the other needs to walk up the hill and see it from afar. Either way I have to figure out how to get my student to understand.
  • kadiyan on 28 May 14
     
    True......even i did not think of it this way!!yes even i now think teaching is now a design science. With technology changing every day, we as teachers will have to think of new ways to use the new tools and as individual isolated teachers we wont be able to keep pace and do justice so we all will have to share and work collaboratively to design innovative ways to teach effectively.
  • hackingmom on 28 May 14
     
    Dear Diana, I can't agree more on your proposals. In fact the peer2peer learning that we propose and expect from children in class has to become a MUST between teachers. I am not a teacher but I have experienced hoy there is Little sharing between teachers of same "level" of education in same school, almost NO dialog between those of different levels, and scarcely any between other teachers. How to rebuild this communication is crutial, and not only between heads and teachers but also upon other school staff, which sometimes get more information about each child environment and learning attitude than teachers or tutors themselves because they do see students in "non directed" situations react to real life problems.
  • merilau on 28 May 14
     
    You are so right. One thing I like about the school I work with is the enthusiasm some teachers have for finding new tools. Some of us work collaboratively and it makes a real difference. Unfortunately this is not the case with the whole school, but I believe there will come a time when this will be the only way to work. Thanks for sharing!
  • roshanmohammad on 28 May 14
     
    Thank you for Diana for your thought inspiring article. I think that the teachers who understand and master this 'design science' are really going to use ICT to leverage their teaching and their students learning. Institutes will probably need mature 'innovators' to drive the concept of 'design scientists' forward. In addition i believe we will also need a 'design artist' to create a ICT learning culture within the organization too.
  • rosefraser on 29 May 14
     
    Thank you for sharing as a new person to the Teaching Profession I found collaborating efforts have worked really well for me and I am always willing to learn from others and share my ideas with them to get their input and it have proven fruitful. Working as a team and sharing with others to get a different point of view is always important.
  • katrin_n on 29 May 14
     
    In my opinion the most important thing is -given teaching will be treated as a collective design science- learning about how to apply new ways of teaching on our individual children. The newest would probably not always be the best and what worked in other schools elsewhere might not work in your own school. So let´s also stress how to individualize collective knowledge again and break it down to everyday usable teaching aid that we can evaluate.

    I totally agree with your opinion about education, specially when you talk about collaborative work among teachers to help our students build knowledge .THank you
