    This is an article about the use of games in education - it's VERY LONG, but in section 8 there is a summary of the best points. Lisa, David and I are taking LTMS603 about gaming in education and I think this article makes a lot of good arguments for why we should try to use it!

    An example of a non-linear story. The open source application called Twine allows students to make these. Don't you think the younger students, especially, would enjoy making these?

    I wonder if this idea of 60 second lectures could take hold in an English or Social Studies class, for example. Watch Charles Bernstein's "What Makes a Poem" clip. Clever. Would this be a good hook with your students?

Indiana high school students required to rent netbooks - 0 views

  • the schools will rent netbooks to students for $70 per year on top of their existing annual textbook fee.
    • anonymous
       
      I wonder if THIS is a way to get computers into schools wihout breaking the budgets each year? What do you think?
  •  
    Interesting! A textbook fee too! Hmmmm..they may have something there. I think this is a good idea. Would like to see it in place for elementary too. It might get a bit dicey for families who have more than 2 children.
  •  
    I was talking about the computers, but mentioned textbooks because that was unusual to me.

    If this isn't a classic site to define Web 2.0 (Read-Write web) then nothing is. Self organized. Folks just submitted content. (Surprising how few can actually moon walk)

    A must-watch! We should talk about this!

    Doesn't sound like the feds plan to do anything too soon to advance digital learning in the near future. SAD! What about having grants BEFORE kids drop out of school. Be proactive instead of reactive!

Collier school district working to reduce absences among its top students : Education :... - 0 views

  • While the attendance rate for the district is very good, Stockman said, 26.6 percent of the Top 50 students in the district’s seven high schools have missed between 10 and 19 days of school and 6.3 percent missed 20 days or more.
  • “We have students who miss 50 days of school and graduate in the Top 50 of their class. And we know the reasons. A lot of them are working on Florida Virtual School to get (Advanced Placement) and honors credits.”

      What does this say about what goges on in school? What does it say about the hybrid model of Brick and Mortar schools and cyber schools?
  • students who have accrued 10 or more absences in a semester to the intervention team to be considered for denial of credit. Credit denial results in an “L” being placed next tot he semester grade on the student’s report card and in the student’s grade history. The grade will not be figured into the student’s grade point average.

      Fair?
  • ...1 more annotation...
  • Stockman said the consequences reflect the School Board’s philosophy that “the classroom experience is of unique value and it cannot be duplicated by make-up work. Student interaction and the development of ideas through discussion are lost when a student is absent.”
    • anonymous
       
      Is this board simply resisting the inevitable change? Or, do you agree that the classroom experience cannot be duplicated and is essential to the education of the student? Or, is it just that the quality of the makeup work is poor?
  •  
    Is this a sign of things to come? What do YOU think of the idea of punishing the kids who don't come to school yet get good grades?
  •  
    I responded about this in a message to you. You are free to share that message (comment) with the group. Didn't realize this was here until just now.OOPS! LOL
