    Ping, I think this will come in very hand in the near future. I only recall doing one literature review in my academic career and it's a faded memory. This appears to be a concise base of instructions on how, why and what a literature review is. I have a database of all the work I performed in my previous grad program and surprisingly there is not one source on this topic, other than the review I did for a section of a capstone proposal.
  •  
    A very helpful resource that I have saved for future reference.
  •  
    I think this is a great resource for both the teacher and the student. Literature reviews are a great way for students to show their understanding of a reading. I have heard of similar tasks for literature reviews, but this is a great for students to share.

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY USE AS A LEARNING MECHANISM: THE IMPACT OF IT USE ON...: OneSearch! - 1 views

  •  
    This study contributes to research and practice through the theoretical development and empirical investigation of the role of IT use in organizational learning. We empirically examined the relationship between internal IT use, knowledge transfer effectiveness, absorptive capacity, and franchisee performance on a sample of 783 independently owned franchisees using a comprehensive dataset comprised of both primary and secondary data. The overall results indicate support for the argument that IT use impacts knowledge transfer effectiveness, and absorptive capacity, and that the influence of IT use on firm performance is completely mediated by absorptive capacity. The results are stable across the choice of statistical method and the operationalization of financial performance. Our findings suggest that IT use is an important learning mechanism that enables knowledge outcomes and dynamic capabilities within franchisees. Firms need to recognize these impacts of IT use in order to leverage IT to its fullest extent. This might be more important than ever before, given the rapidly changing business environments and investments in IT-based systems to manage knowledge resources. We hope that the findings of this study encourage the continued examination of the role that IT plays in organizational learning, and the outcomes of such learning.

To Get Students Invested, Involve Them in Decisions Big and Small | MindShift | KQED News - 1 views

  • I’ve seen students with iPads and the novelty is there and the engagement is there, but it’s not clear that novelty and engagement will lead to increased academic achievement,”
  • One big challenge can be how to frame curriculum design using the technology so that it moves beyond novelty and engagement into deep learning.  This takes time, patience, and observation.

  •  
    How to use the social media Facebook, generally perceived as a distraction, as tool for education
  •  
    Really great step by step information on how to safely use FB in the classroom. Bold statement by the author of the article: We have an obligation as educators to model appropriate online behavior and learn right along our students.
  •  
    I think this is a great resource for using Facebook safely in the classroom. The article is definitely directed towards teachers. It provides nice step-by-step instructions for locking down the privacy of what you post to maintain that professional relationship with students and their parents.

Achievethecore.org :: Instructional Practice Guide - 1 views

  • 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.
