The Most Powerful Tool in the Classroom | Sarah Wike Loyola - 1 views

  •  
    Do you know what the most powerful tool is in the classroom?
  •  
    I agree, the most powerful tool in our classroom is the Internet (as long as you have tools in your classroom that can utilize it). I thought this post wonderfully and concisely explained the way teachers' roles need to change in the classroom. We are no longer the sole holders of knowledge; everyone has the capability to retrieve information, they just have to learn how to access and use it. I think this post would be useful to show to teachers who are stuck and do not want to give up control of their classroom to the "organized chaos" the article describes. The TED talk included at the end of the article was wonderful as well!

    Teaching tips in a 21st century classroom
  • ...2 more comments...

    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.
  •  
    I like this website as well. It provides practical suggestions
  •  
    This provides good tips for all teachers regardless of whether the class is flipped or traditional. I saved it for my own library.

A Teen Take on Ed Tech | Youth Radio -- Youth Media International - 1 views

    cute (and gives you something to think about)-a teen's perspective on technology
  •  
    By far one of my favorite comments is "If teachers feel like students are judging them, that's because we are. We grew up in an age of immaculately designed websites that were made to be user-friendly." I find myself doing this even in Grad School!

Using Minecraft as an Educational Tool - 1 views

  •  
    Maybe your child is one of the thousands hooked on Minecraft, a video game that lets players build with textured cubes in a virtual 3D world. Players can also explore seemingly endless worlds and time. I am working on this for another class as well, so expect more on this!

    My friends got me into minecraft, and it is an impressive game. I like how the article doesn't just focus on using it like an art tool like I've seen other articles, but how it can teach different skills. Of course, minecraft doesn't follow the same rules as the real world such as physics. So its real job is to just get kids interested from a young age and perhaps learn more about how they really work. Another way I've seen minecraft used educationally is to introduce kids to working cooperatively on a joint server. So they know how to behave online and solve problems diplomatically.
