The School Is Flat | The Moss-Free Stone - 0 views

  •  
    "Teaching is a noble call that suffers when we practice in isolation and flourishes when we work together, and at no time in history have we had the tools we do today that allow us to work together for the good of our children. When we take the time to learn and embrace these tools, we grow as professionals-I can testify to that wholeheartedly."

Education - Change.org: Tutorial: Two Uses of Technology to Improve Literacy and Critic... - 0 views

  •  
    I'm still thinking about that UCLA research saying "technology in the classroom damages literacy and critical thinking." I'm still thinking it's behind the times, in its framing of technology as "video games and TV," and its complete omission of the Web and the social media/Web 2.0 explosion over the last five years or so.

15 Minutes of Fame: Learn to game, to game to learn Part 2 - 0 views

  • Peggy: I would say that this is the most remarkable experience of my life, for the reason that in most circles, I am the go-to person. I am the information person. I am the how-do-you-do-it person. In WoW, that role has been reversed, and I am the struggling learner. (A lot of it is due to time constraint. I don't have the time to go and research which add-on to use for my Holy Paladin heals and delve into the backstory as much as I'd like to.) It's a fabulous experience for me to see how the struggling child feels in the classroom, to see how you might be reluctant to raise your hand and ask a question because you feel "less than." It's really reminded me that I have kids at all different readiness levels around me, and I have to make sure I'm not addressing just the top or the bottom or the middle. Things do have to be level. Language does have to be changed. It's a remarkable transference of understanding for me. I step out of the role of expert and become the role of learner. That's what we need our teachers to do.
