This Week In Education: Thompson: How Houston's Test and Punish Policies Fail - 0 views
-
I often recall Houston's Apollo 20 experiment, designed to bring "No Excuses" charter school methods to neighborhood schools. Its output-driven, reward and punish policies failed. It was incredibly expensive, costing $52 million and it didn't increase reading scores. Intensive math tutoring produced test score gains in that subject. The only real success was due to the old-fashioned, win-win, input-driven method of hiring more counselors.

Michels finds no evidence that Grier's test-driven accountability has benefitted students, but he describes the great success of constructive programs that build on kids' strengths and provide them more opportunities.

With the help of local philanthropies, however, Houston has introduced a wide range of humane, holistic, and effective programs. Michels starts with Las Americas Newcomer School, which is "on paper a failing school." It offers group therapy and social workers who help immigrants "navigate bureaucratic barriers—like proof of residency or vaccination records." He then describes outstanding early education programs that are ready to be scaled up, such as the Gabriela Mistral Center for Early Childhood, and Project Grad which has provided counseling and helped more than 7,600 students go to college.

-
Data-driven instruction, advocates say, is scientific and consistent with how successful businesses have used data for decades to increase their productivity.
-
Of course, teachers had always assessed learning informally before state- and district-designed tests. Teachers accumulated information (oops! data) from pop quizzes, class discussions, observing students in pairs and small groups, and individual conferences.

THE NUMBERS PROJECT - 0 views

THE NUMBERS PROJECT IS A DAILY PROJECT TO ELEVATE MY MENTAL PROCESS OF CREATIVE THINKING, AS WELL AS SIMPLY TO CREATE DAILY. TECHNICALLY THE GOAL WAS TO KEEP IT CONCEPTUALLY SIMPLE, WHICH IS WHY NUMBERS BECAME THE SUBJECT MATTER. TO BE EXACT 0- 365 CONSECUTIVELY, 1 A DAY FOR 2013. THE GUIDELINES THAT I HAVE IMPOSED ON MYSELF ARE TO ONLY USE THE SINGLE COLOR OF BLACK, A NOD TO CLASSIC LOGO DESIGN AND I LIMIT MY TIME, 30 MINUTES SKETCHING, 30 MINUTES ON THE COMPUTER, SO AFTER AN HOUR IT GETS POSTED, DONE OR NOT. I'M SURE SOME WILL BE TERRIBLE..HA, BUT THE PURPOSE IS PROCESS NOT NECESSARILY THE OUTCOME.

There's an array of Twitter tools that make the rounds on the ol' edtech circle. We chat about Hootsuite, Paper.li, and Bit.ly quite a bit.

We're creating a series of helpful posts designed to turn you on to a few tools that you may not know about - but will be anxious to try once you learn about them.

Assessment Training Institute - Tools & Resources: Rubric Evaluations - 0 views

n Chapter 2 of the book Creating & Recognizing Quality Rubrics, we describe a "rubric for rubrics" designed to assist educators to be thoughtful consumers and developers of rubrics for instructional use in the classroom. The various quality levels described by the Rubric for Rubrics are illustrated with many sample classroom rubrics. All classroom rubrics discussed in the book have been evaluated using the Rubric for Rubrics; these evaluations are included on a CD that accompanies the book.
