What Happened to My Grade Book?: Curriculum-Based Instruction & Standards-Based Education - 2 views

  •  
    What do you think??
  •  
    Wow--interesting perspective on standards, particularly common core. I'd like to see someone take on the author's logic in an article. I agree with many of the author's points, but wonder what someone who has the opposite viewpoint might say to the idea that standards encourage minimum proficiency, therefore minimum effort.

Shift to the Future: The Technology Adoption Challenge - 4 views

  •  
    Interesting blog entry on the challenges of technology adoption by staff. Towards the end the author points out successful adoption techiques. How many times do we forget to remember these things??
  •  
    Liked this, and found that the prior blogs he linked to in the article gave good examples, particularly the one on SMARTboards back in 2010. I'm hoping the "action research team" example is something we can start to work on with the PLC concept.
