The Chapter 18 Project | Thomas L. Friedman - 0 views

  • As I put it in the book: “In some ways, the subprime mortgage mess and housing crisis are metaphors for what has come over America in recent years: A certain connection between hard work, achievement, and accountability has been broken. We’ve become a subprime nation that thinks it can just borrow its way to prosperity..."

      You see evidence of this all the times - just watch TV commercials. Companies always offer interest free, until ... or no down payments ... this is encouraging to "buy" things they have not worked hard for. For something like a house, borrowing money is reasonable, as long as your taste in homes matches what you can pay off. It is not economically responsible to buy thousands of dollars of new furniture just because you don't have to pay until 2012, knowing that you will not be able to pay it off in time.

    The author of "Flat, hot, and crowded" continues his discussion with the readers in what is titled 'Chapter 18.' In true web 2.0 fashion he encourages the readers to become the writers with frequent posts requesting response. He plans on using the best posts to create the real Chapter 18 for the second edition of his book.

ISTE | NETS for Teachers 2008 - 0 views

  • Teachers exhibit knowledge, skills, and work processes representative of an innovative professional in a global and digital society. Teachers: a. demonstrate fluency in technology systems and the transfer of current knowledge to new technologies and situations. b. collaborate with students, peers, parents, and community members using digital tools and resources to support student success and innovation. c. communicate relevant information and ideas effectively to students, parents, and peers using a variety of digital-age media and formats. d. model and facilitate effective use of current and emerging digital tools to locate, analyze, evaluate, and use information resources to support research and learning.

      How many of your teachers are capable of doing this? Do you honestly feel that it's important that they do this, or is it sufficient to focus on NCLB?
    • Mrs Huber
       
      I am hoping I become proficient enough in some of these "new" technology ideas that I can host after school learning sessions for teachers who want to also explore these items. Of course, there will be no pay for it. LOL
    • Vicki Barr
       
      Some of our teachers are capable of this. I think it is important that teachers try - the teachers that are willing to make mistakes in front of the students - learn more - and the students help (and they enjoy helping!)
    • Scott Brewer
       
      My question is how does this fit into NCLB? Can we legislatively work to blend the two?!
    • Emma Clouser
       
      We really can't ignore NCLB at this point, so I think the question is how do teachers mesh the two together?

      Communication with parents via e-mail is so much easier than trying to connect on the phone, but it can become overwhelming sometimes. I spend a great deal of time composing and revising e-mails to parents, careful of what I put in writing.

      TIME - we need time to do this!
    • anonymous
       
      Probably not all the teachers; however, to prepare our children for the world we should all be putting our efforts toward these goals.
    • Mrs Huber
       
      @Beth- I totally agree!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    • Amy Soule
       
      I tried to get a teacher to collaborate on having the students write persuasive book reviews to be posted online (either or Moodle, or Destiny, or whatever), and was told we could certainly do that, AFTER the PSSA tests were over. That's where the focus is! We need to use the techology to teach the basics!
    • Mrs Huber
       
      @Amy- I agree..the question is HOW to do it?
  • develop and model cultural understanding and global awareness by engaging with colleagues and students of other cultures using digital-age communication and collaboration tools.
    • L Butler
       
      This is a powerful tool ... but as a teacher you have to be able to give up some of the control. The spontanous learning opportunities involving technology are enriching. My 6th graders especially ask lots of cultural questions, and we look them up online together or we find an expert to ask.

    I love this site! I could see kids getting into this as grammar practice instead of taking notes and doing a worksheet. Thanks, Lisa!
