Just how effective are filters at protecting children? Not very, according to this article. So, why are they in place again?????
-
It just goes to show that the technology has prevailed once again! If these types of filters are not working, an alternative would be to teach "Safe Surfing" to students and educate them on how to use the internet ethically, responsibly, and safely.
The Stock Market for the Rest of Us - WeSeed - 0 views

This is a good web site that students can play the stock market. Students can research companies, trade, etc. and it allows them to build a portfolio. It also has videos to use for teaching the stock market and some fun games. It also allows for blogging with others who are playing the game. I used this with my General Business class while studying stocks. I did have to get special permission from Tech. to allow students to set up a gmail account.

Interesting glossary/translator of teen texting phrases.
-
I was actually discussing this topic with the Chair of the Business Division at HACC. This abbreviated language that has developed out of texting and instant messaging reminded her of how Court Reporters use similar abbreviations for words and phrases. They're thinking of referencing the similarities to encourage high school graduates to consider court reporting for a career and a major at HACC.

Information overload is not a new concept, believe it or not. As far back as the sixteenth century people were complaining about the wide range of information they had to consume in order to contribute to society.

Graduation exam compromise earning mixed grades - 0 views
-
The latest version of Keystone Exams calls for the state to provide 10 end-of-course exams, beginning with English literature, Algebra 1 and biology in 2010-11, with other subjects being phased in through 2016-17. The state would ask the federal government to permit the first three to be used to satisfy the No Child Left Behind Act beginning in 2012-13, thus enabling the state to discontinue the Pennsylvania System of School Assessment exams in 11th grade.
-
For graduation purposes, school districts would need to count the exams for at least one-third of a student's final grade or districts could use validated local assessments or Advanced Placement or International Baccalaureate exams instead.

In defending this exam idea, one person said that she felt it was BETTER to give these tests than one PSSA test every three years. "Wouldn't you rather take the test when you can still remember the material?" Hmmm.... Does she know what she just said?

There’s much more here, obviously, in terms of even bigger questions about the roles of schools and teachers and classrooms in a networked learning world. But I agree that here is where we have to start. What is it we most want our kids to know about what it means to be a person of this world, and how do we best convey it in ways that make sense for the times we live in? Everything else flows from that. What do you think?
-
Maybe she's had enough of the term "21st Century" this or that, but I think it's an important concept to hold onto for a while, yet. We may be tired of it, but there are FAR too many others who haven't heard it or who don't truly understand what it looks like. So, let's not rush into the idea of abandoning it just yet. I DO think it's important that leaders answer the question, "What do we want our kids to know about what it means to be a person of this world?" Without a CLEAR statement about that you can't begin to set your goals and curriculum.

The millions of stimulus dollars to be spent on modernizing classrooms won't transform learning if students can't participate in the online forums that are reshaping the economy, journalism, government and society. If government has any helpful role to play in making school Web surfing safer, it should fund the development of online safety curricula and research into effective supervision software and strategies. Requiring more filtering would throw more resources at a failed approach. Another emerging and misguided strategy is requiring certain Web sites, such as social networks, to use age verification software; evading these new obstacles won't be much harder than evading filters.

Great article about school filters. Read it and pass it along to your administration, maybe. But certainly, discuss it with them.
