Eucharist is the primary and indispensable source of nourishment for the spiritual life of believers.
  • In a time of great challenge and change (c.1918 CE to the present), the Church had to respond philosophically and theologically to unprecedented threats to both human ecology and environmental ecology from science, technology, materialism, consumerism and political ideologies. The Church’s philosophical and theological responses involved rethinking and reforming its cultural influence, political influence, social structure, roles and relationships, economic power and evangelising mission.

Technology for positive: Using Technology to Differentiate Instruction - 1 views

  •  
    "One of the major benefits of using technology in the classroom is the ability to differentiate instruction to meet the needs of every student in every lesson. Just as every student grows and develops at different rates, they learn in different ways and at different speeds. Technology makes it possible to pace lessons appropriately for each student's learning level and can be used to promote learning in the multiple intelligences. Below you will find website suggestions that address the different learning styles in your classroom with the help of technology: Verbal-Linguistic These learners enjoy learning through speaking, writing, reading, and listening. In the classroom setting these students shine when given tasks such as taking notes, researching, listening, reading for information, and writing. Websites to encourage learning for Verbal-Linguistic students: 1. http://wordle.net Allow students to express themselves creatively with words 2. http://ed.voicethread.com Capture student voices with audio, text, pictures , and video 3. http://zoho.com- A free online word processor, and presentation tool 4. http://gcast.com- Students can podcast (voice recording) online. 5. http://kerpoof.com - Students can create stories or mini- movies 6. http://www2.shidonni.com- Students create animated stories 7. http://tickatok.com Students can create stories and turn them into a book 8. http://pbskids.org/wordworld A world where words come alive 9. http://readwritethink.org 52 interactive activities related to reading, writing, and speaking 10. http://speakaboos.com Students can read stories online, record their own story and play literacy games Logical-Mathematical These learners love numbers, reasoning, and problem solving.
