Free Technology for Teachers: Easier Copy & Paste With Google Docs Clipboard - 5 views

  •  
    Copy and pasting content within Google Docs just got easier and better. Yesterday, Google announced the launch of new clipboard feature for Google Docs. The clipboard allows you to copy content from a spreadsheet to a document or presentation. Likewise, you can copy from a document and paste to a presentation or a spreadsheet cell. Probably the most important element of the Google Docs clipboard is that you can save multiple selections to your clipboard and access them at any time from any internet-connected computer.

Don't Confuse Technology With Teaching - Commentary - The Chronicle of Higher Education - 5 views

  • Education is not the transmission of information or ideas. Education is the training needed to make use of information and ideas. As information breaks loose from bookstores and libraries and floods onto computers and mobile devices, that training becomes more important, not less.
  • Educators are coaches, personal trainers in intellectual fitness. The value we add to the media extravaganza is like the value the trainer adds to the gym or the coach adds to the equipment. We provide individualized instruction in how to evaluate and make use of information and ideas, teaching people how to think for themselves.
  • A set of podcasts is the 21st-century equivalent of a textbook, not the 21st-century equivalent of a teacher.

  • Technology can make education better. It will do so, in part, by forcing us to reflect on what education is, identify what only a person can do, and devote educators' time to that.

eSN Special Report: Small-group collaboration | eSchoolNews.com - 5 views

  • Sutton said collaboration is "a more positive way of teaching" and addresses the needs of students who learn best in different ways, such as those who are visual learners or auditory learners.
  • In a traditional classroom arrangement—with the teacher lecturing at the front of the class—"the group becomes homogenized," Silverman says. The teacher targets the instruction to the middle, ignoring the passive, inattentive students in the back and the more advanced students who might be bored because they already know the material. The teacher might ask two to four students to come to the front of the room to solve a problem, but the rest are "educational voyeurs," he says.
  • He suggests that each group have a student identified as a facilitator, recorder, and possibly, reflector, with those positions changing from project to project. After a group completes its work, the students can use the projector to share what they’ve learned with the whole class.

    The article reinforces readings for the course, as well as providing suggestions for activities that would be collaborative (actually, the way they describe it is more cooperative because they specify roles, but we can "scrub 'round that bit", I'm sure.
