This article shows that students are doing better academically in classes where laptops have been implemented. The article believes the using laptops during school helps increase concentration for students, as well as motivation. I know some classes even in college banned laptops, but I believe we all learn differently and should have the opportunity to use whatever resources we can if it will help improve our educational experience.

Today we're looking at GEteach [Google Earth PLUGIN required.] , a site developed by 9th-grade Geography teacher Josh Williams. The site uses the Google Earth Plug-in to give you quick access to a wide variety of information such as the CIA Factbook, population densities, and various other human and physical geographic overlays.

Museum 2.0: Engagement, Distraction, and the Puzzle of the Puzzle - 1 views

shared by Ryan Donnelly on 25 Jul 12 - No Cached

there's a fine line between something that is inviting versus something that is distracting,
- L Butler on 25 Jul 12
  
  The debate with engagement vs distraction extends beyond the classroom. We are in such a sensory overload environment that things like art museums are also trying to adapt to re-capture attention.

  I'm not sure that I find this picture to be a comment on distraction as much as how much kids like touching things rather than starring at what, quite frankly, doesn't look to be that interesting of an exhibit. If you want kids to be engaged in your museum, which is partially the point of this article/post, then you need to make it interactive. The same goes for the classroom. Making the classroom interactive whether through tech. or other means, is a necessity!

Teacher Vision provides free tools for educators, and the website is even divided by discipline. I looked over the Social Studies page as that is my interest. They have lesson plans, Power Pont's, and more.

This article covers three applications on smart phones that are great for mind mapping. The applications on the iPod, iPod, and Android are free, but the BlackBerry application costs $17. I have never used a mind mapping tool on my phone, but this article is very interesting which helps explain more Web 2.0 tools.

Is Algebra Necessary? Adam Hayes By ANDREW HACKER Published: July 28, 2012 475 Comments A TYPICAL American school day finds some six million high school students and two million college freshmen struggling with algebra. In both high school and college, all too many students are expected to fail. Why do we subject American students to this ordeal? I've found myself moving toward the strong view that we shouldn't.

Liked the way this site organizes 5 core tactical approaches for instruction. Can help one visualize and identify the approach that he/she may take to achieve learning objectives. Instructional methods are used by teachers to create learning environments and to specify the nature of the activity in which the teacher and learner will be involved during the lesson.
