  • learner-response device
  • use of graphics and other visuals to represent information
  • ...12 more annotations...
  • reinforcer
  • answer is correct or to present information in an unusual context
  • These practices were associated with a 31 percentile point gain in student achievement.
  • Using the voting devices but doing little with the findings.
  • Not organizing or pacing the content well
  • Using too many visuals
  • Paying too much attention to reinforcing features
  • Teachers should think through how they intend to organize information. They should group information into small, meaningful segments before they start developing the digital flipcharts
  • but those visuals should clearly focus on the important information
  • After asking a question and getting student responses using voting devices, the teacher should typically discuss the correct answer along with the incorrect answers
  • teachers should make sure that students focus on why an answer is correct or incorrect
  • simply assuming that using this or any other technological tool can automatically enhance student achievement would be a mistake.

TED: Ideas worth spreading - 0 views

  •  
    Great site for finding and sharing innovative ideas in different fields. The movies would probably be more conducive to middle or high school students because the speakers sometimes speak more quickly or use more technical language.
  •  
    Some ingenious current ideas from masters of all kinds of different fields. Give it a try, would be great for middle and high school levels. I found a sculptor who makes kinetic artwork run by wind and capable of "surviving" on the coast of Holland!
