  • ...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.

  • In the past decade, there has been a monumental shift in the level of communication that parents expect from teachers and school administrators
  • A classroom blog can be a great compromise between teachers and millennial parents
  • Think of a classroom blog as a weekly newsletter for your students and their parents. It satisfies parents’ desire to know what’s going on at school, keeps the lines of communication open with parents, and becomes an archive of the school year.

    Rethinking what a blog post/communication post could look like. The possibilities are simply endless. I would recommend turning over the responsibility to your students in your classroom and rethinking the idea that it is all up to you.
