Creative Educator - The Role of the Librarian & Computer Teacher in 21st Century Schools - 0 views

  • Library and computer lab times still exist in many districts as thirty minute specials each week. This library and technology instruction period also allows teachers an additional planning period. With classroom teachers now responsible for assessing crucial communication skills and technology literacies, such skills must be integrated into daily classroom work and curriculum. Working with all of this information and technology must be a collaborative effort. Teachers need to be involved in order to meet students’ daily classroom needs. Redefining the roles of the librarian and computer teacher as information and technology coaches supports and propagates best practices so teachers can create a powerful learning environment for students.

      The article notes that computer teachers have new roles as coaches. This concept connects well with ISTE NETs for Technology Coaches.

Helping Diverse Struggling Readers Through Reflective Teaching and Coaching - 6 views

  •  
    This article shows that through reflective teaching and coaching, diverse struggling readers can beneficiate from different strategies and will help to close instructional gaps.
  •  
    I like the ideas presented here, they elaborate on the need for ELL students to have word association and phonetic instruction to further their understanding of content. This is particularly stressed in the elementary grades, however having a teaching coach for ELL learners in the higher grades could assist students that did not have phonetic instruction in the lower grades. One particular item of interest was the comment made that data results from assessment is not analyzed until later in the year and as a result does not benefit the students that took the assessment. Due to this the author stresses the need for collaboration of the teaching team to identify skills and strategies needed and subsequently develop ways to address the skill or strategy needed that will enhance learning.

Adobe Youth Voices Awards Finalist: Hutong: Lost in the City - 0 views

  •  
    This documentary focuses on Hutong, the cultural symbol of traditional life in Beijing. Though well-known around the world, many Hutongs are actually facing the problem of arbitrary and incomplete demolition, and the shortage of governmental administration and public cleaning. This is a website that youth can post their created digital media as wel as express their own idea and opinion to have their own voices and collaborate regarding issues they care and concern about. Urbanization, gender equality, racial justice, environmental protection for everyone are among the issues that global youth care about. Teachers need to provide students a safe environment on line or in person to express themselves.

A Focus on Attendance Is Key to Success - 6 views

  •  
    This article describes how attendance effects students, their grades, and schools. Students who miss 10% of classes throughout the school year are considered chronically absent. The article looks at reasons why students do not attend school and offers suggestions on how to address that problem. It also outlines how a middle school cut its absenteeism in half in a short period of time.
  •  
    One of the most interesting aspects of this article is that attendance issues faced by elementary schools directly correlate with reading levels and the subsequent chronic absenteeism in secondary schools. Three categoriesare identified to describe absences -barriers, discretion and aversion- or rather lack of access to public supports, parents and students do not understand importance of attendance, and a child struggling with academics, anxiety or bullying. Principals are utilizing attendance data to identify chronic absentee students and subsequently implementing strategies in their schools to incorporate interventions that will break down the barriers affecting school attendance rates. The article further discusses the positive effects that principals can have by reaching out to the community as well as the elementary feeder schools to collaboratively effect change that will increase attendance.

ShowDocument - EDTC 610 - 1 views

  •  
    This website is an amazing tool. You can share files, documents, and even your screen with your group partner. ShowDocument allows teams to complete co-edits, use a whiteboard for brainstorming, view video clips, search web pages, and even utilize google maps. ShowDocument has a lot of collaborative web tools in once place. You have to pay for a membership to use chat translators and screen captures, but the basic tools are ideal for most group projects. Best, Denee

    Debategraph is a fantastic tool for individual and group study. It is perfect for organizing thoughts, ideas and facts. You can create bullet points and subcategories of information. On Debategraph you can map your ideas and collaborate with team members. I used Debate graph on my website in 605 as a language arts tool. Its a an ideal tool for brainstorming and organizing a persuasive or informative argument. Students can also present information using the debategraph as a visual. Best, Denee Devenish

    This a great tool where you can post questions or comments on a wall that is interactive. We used it during a school wide staff meeting and it worked really well. It served as a "parking lot" for questions so it didn't disrupt the flow of the meeting. We also had other teachers and administrators responding to the questions/comments in real time. See the description below.. Brainstorm with students from your own school or from other schools. This program allows you to post stickers with your ideas onto a virtual wall. You can embed your wall on a website or blog.

    Brandon, This is a great tool. I have been in staff meeting where it has taken much longer than it should have, but this allows for questions to be answered while information is being presented. This tool was very easy to use and like that it can be embeded into a website or blog. Thank you for sharing. Rich

      Edmodo is a great tool - I have used it to help to flatten my classroom this year and have two different grade levels work together. I use it to post my lesson agenda with links to the resources as well as homework, assignments etc. It links to Google, you can upload files, you can conduct polls, have a schedule - it is safe, it promotes collaboration and self-support - it is brilliant.
  •  
    Edmodo is also a great site to use for a class homepage. It's a good resources for students and teachers. We have Edline in our county but I think the personalization of this is better.

    A teacher could use this in his or her classroom to help students brainstorm ideas in the writing process. I have used googledocs to insert a pre-writing template for students to complete prior to some writing assignments which fulfills a similar purpose. The resource could also be useful in helping you keep your agenda or priorities organized especially when working in a group.

Kidblog - 1 views

  •  
    As a goal for the next school year, I have decided to include a blog that would accompany my teaching and assignments my students would complete throughout the year. Through my searching, I discovered Kidblog. According to the site, "Kidblog is designed for K-12 teachers who want to provide each student with an individual blog. Students publish posts and participate in academic discussions within a secure classroom blogging community." For my language arts students, they would use this tool by completing and discussing discussion questions relating to a novel study (we complete at least 4 throughout the year). In regards to writing, their personal blog would be a great place to stay organized with their process of writing. I also like how this platform allows students to start an e-portfolio, especially for their writing and composition samples.
