"In a digitally-charged learning environment, the key is to turn up the H.E.A.T. on student learning. H.E.A.T. is an acronym that is synonymous with digital-age learning (i.e., 21st Century Skills) and represents Student Output in terms of student: Higher order thinking, Engaged learning, Authentic connections, and Technology use."

The Center for Teaching History with Technology is a great tool that uses resources that we have worked with in this course including Google Docs, Wikis, blogs, and more. The Social Studies resources include games, activities, plans, and mores. While I am not an educator, I think it is important to implement these types of tools in the classroom.

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

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!

there is no actual evidence to support the view that this generation is distracted, performing poorly or otherwise less capable than previous generations. In fact the evidence suggests that on the whole, this is the smartest generation ever. IQ is up year over year for many years, university entrance exam scores are at an all time high and it has never been tougher to get into the best universities.  This is a generation about which we can be enormously hopeful.

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.

Thanks Michelle! I saw you post this, and put it on a post it note on my wall. Finally got a chance to take the post-it down, and this is amazing, no more time being taken to remember which cloud system I saved something to. Even sent this link on in my school to other teachers who were highly impressed as well.

Thanks for the article Neil. It was a great read. I noticed the biggest issue at the school for me was accessibility due to cost. I never thought of a lot of the others, but looking back, I know that there are many devices in the school that are blocked from being used because of the network capacities.

Shout'Em is platform on which you can easily start co-branded microbloging social networking service. Something simple as Twitter or with more features like attachments, photos, links... It is up to you :) Networks on Shout'Em are "lightweight social networks". They have small set of features: microblogging, links and photo sharing, geo location sharing and mobile browser support. We belive that microblogging concept is more suitable for small comunities loking for simple service to comunicate than existing social networks with tons of features.
