    Teaching tips in a 21st century classroom

    I really like the tips presented in this article and agree that I could utilize this resource when I become a teacher because the tips are modern and achievable. I believe this resource is mostly for teacher use because it is entitled "teaching practices for teachers," meaning students probably would not benefit from reading about how to become a better teacher. Rather, teachers can use this resource to discover some easy tips they could easily apply to their classroom to become stronger, 21st century teachers. Another resource that could be considered: http://www.educatorstechnology.com/2012/06/33-digital-skills-every-21st-century.html. This provides a link to another article on the same site entitled "The 20 Digital Skills Every 21st Century Teacher Should Have."

    Lots of good tips were given here, I hope that more teacher will discover this resource and learn how to apply this to their classroom.

    This provides good tips for all teachers regardless of whether the class is flipped or traditional. I saved it for my own library.

shared by Megan Skiles on 06 Oct 15 - No Cached
  • The Instructional Practice Guide includes coaching and lesson planning tools to help teachers and those who support teachers to make the Key Shifts in instructional practice required by the Common Core State Standards (CCSS).   In order for teachers, colleagues, and instructional leaders to have meaningful and productive conversations about instructional goals and outcomes, there must be shared expectations regarding lesson planning and observation. These tools provide common criteria framed around the Key Shifts required by the CCSS that can be used to facilitate conversations between teachers and coaches about aligning content and instruction. By using these tools to reflect on practice, clear connections can be made between Common Core-aligned lesson planning and classroom instruction--conversations which can supplement information from other established observation protocols that focus on planning and preparation,  classroom management and environment, and professional responsibilities.

    This website just comes to show how many resources are actually out there for teachers to use and improve their teaching. This website is all about helping teacher achieve the core and in the classroom. There is administrative tools for coaching teachers in instructing the core. Videos of classrooms that follow the core . It seems very similar to the Teaching Channel just this one has a different emphasis.

  • Use the image search. Type in your search word, then select Images to use the image search when trying to put a picture to your term. Get a definition. If you want a definition without having to track down an online (or a physical) dictionary, just type "definition:word" to find the definition of the word in your results (i.e.: "definition: serendipity" will track down the definition of the word "serendipity").
  • Collect research notes with Google Notebook. Use this simple note-taking tool to collect your research for a paper or project.
  • Study the oceans with Google Earth 5. Google Earth 5 provides information on the ocean floor and surface with data from marine experts, including shipwrecks in 3D.

    a list of 100 lesser-known tricks to help with everything Google

    This link is great for teachers to use, especially now that many schools are moving to Google. I particularly like the brief reminders on things that I might not think of for using Google products. This would also be a great resource for students just getting to know the products or older teachers that are less familiar with some of these things.
  • Emma Folland on 10 Oct 15
     
    Sarah Thank you so much for posting this. We were just given permission from our curricilium director that we are allowed to go ahead with Google for Education, so I think this is going to be a great tool to help my teachers with this project. I agree that this recourse can be used very effectively in the classroom. Teachers are always looking for simples tricks and tools, and this offers so many different choices all within one platform! I think this can be used for both teachers and students, but teachers will find more benifits at the beginning because they will be the ones who are introducing all of these tricks to their students, who will then take off with the different tricks! There are other search engines, like Yahoo and Bing, but nothing seems to come close on all the different educational "apps" that are housed like what Google has to offer. It is simple, convienant, and it is something that seems to be lasting, which is always a HUGE plus when it comes to technology trends!
  • Sarah Ebener on 10 Oct 15
     
    I agree, Megan! Emma, happy to hear you are moving to Google Apps for Education. I made the switch my first year of teaching and haven't looked back! Google has so much to offer, and for free usually, that the possibilities seem endless. It has totally revolutionized how I thought I'd be teaching!
  • Ellie Bullock on 12 Oct 15
     
    Google has so many hidden tricks that nobody knows about! Being aware of these can help you use Google to the most of its ability. I would definitely use this since I want to use Google in my classroom. I have found out how wonderful Google is, and I didn't know some of these tips! This is for teacher use for obvious reasons. There are many lists of things out there, but this is a less known topic so there probably aren't too many.

How Do We Prepare Students For Jobs That Don't Exist Yet? - 1 views

    The main thing that makes this blog post l is the youtube video embedded at the bottom. Sir Ken Robinson, critically evaluates the current school system and shows how it needs to be changed to prepare students for the jobs that do not even exist yet
  • Laura H. on 11 Oct 15
     
    Sir Ken Robinson is one of my favorite educational speakers. His Ted Talks are all amazing. I like this resource just for its usefulness in making people think. It would make a great tool for teachers to take to administrators who are reluctant to move towards a new teaching style or technology implementation. I am lucky enough to work with an administration that already thinks this way, but I know that there are some districts that do not see a need for a change in our education system. I also think that every parent and student also need to see this video. It is important to understand why your teachers are trying new things and teaching new skills. It helps when everyone is on board. Thanks for sharing this source!

    Great find for all teachers. I think many teachers, including college professors are falling behind in this. I think the higher ed people need to replace their training manuals with this.
