    ""Our research suggests a strong correlation between kids using technology and wider patterns of reading and writing," Jonathan Douglas, director of the National Literacy Trust, told BBC News. "Engagement with online technology drives their enthusiasm for writing short stories, letters, song lyrics or diaries." "

Let Me Entertain You... by Bob Sprankle - 0 views

shared by anonymous on 30 Jul 09 - No Cached
  • Both presentations will help you get that tune that's stuck in your head out of there --- not "Let Me Entertain You" (there's no hope for that), but the "KIDS these days..." one. Hopefully, they'll help get that tune out of being stuck in your school as well. Because, let's face it: that tune is really just a flimsy excuse to not change.

    Underneath the image is a link that will step you through the word clouds for all the inaugural speeches. Each one is also printed so that you can read the full text. This is not only good for Social Studies, but also VERY good for English. My how our language has devolved over the years. Read Madison's speeches, for example.

professionalism encouragement reaffirmation

shared by anonymous on 24 Jul 09 - Cached
  • Teaching isn't like any other job I've had -- it is a life calling and all-consuming. 
  • You don't have the teaching profession - it definitely has you. 
  • And yet, every year, before it all starts, I count the cost.  I find myself asking myself, "How many more years can I do this?"  "Will I hold up?"  "Can I make it?"

      This really resonated with me!
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • why is it that teachers say "I got out of the classroom" or "I got out of teaching?"
  • I dream of a day where society truly understands what it means to be a teacher and where every teacher remembers what it means to be a teacher!
  • teachers literally have a higher standard of behavior and if we do anything that detracts from the learning environment - no matter what it is, we can be  fired for it!

      I don' t necessarily think this is a bad thing!

      This always makes me think of the sub who was using a computer when inappropriate pop-up windows began to appear. She was sued. It cost her her health, a LOT of money. In the end it was determined that it was NOT her fault, but the damage was done. That would NEVER have happened anywhere else but in education.
  • But, pay a good teacher nothing, and you've still got royalty!  There is a nobility in teaching that truly transcends money. 
    • Mrs Huber
      Mrs Huber on 24 Jul 09
       
      Never thought of myelf as royalty!
  • There is a nobility in good teaching that I think I and my colleague teachers often forget.  There is something about knowing that the very course of a young life will change as a result of being in my classroom and I pray it will be for the positive.  That some granule of learning will be retained and go on to bless the world in future centuries as a result of who I was to a student (or to you, my readers for that matter) is something I hang on to.

      WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well said! If we don't feel this way, maybe we need to find another profession!

      I agree. You should NEVER gt to the point where you're a poor teacher and yet very accepting of that fact. Good teachers do great good, but poor teachers can do just as much harm.
  • If you're a good teacher, you've got your professionalism as a teacher as part of who you are.  It is in you, around you, and exudes from every pore... if you are a good teacher.  You are rich.  Your calling is noble and you will remain rich as long as you rise above, and keep your treasure.

      This made me think of Raif Esquith, author of, "Teach like your hair's on fire." He has no children of his own, but he claims to have had hundreds in his lifetime. He describes himself as being very 'rich.'

  • Chris Sherman, president of Searchwise, said Google, Yahoo, Microsoft's Bing, and newcomer WolframAlpha are the four main search engines that benefit researchers.
  • Social media, I think it's a fad. I think it will not have lasting value as a search medium. I think that there's a lot of focus on searching Facebook and searching Twitter and things like that. I just don't see it. I see lots and lots of problems with that," he said.
