How Twitter and Facebook Are Fueling Classroom Learning - 0 views

  •  
    It's no surprise that high school and college students spend a bulk of their time texting and tweeting.

Developing community Forget the "no cell phones rule" -- these days, laptops and iPhones are a mainstay of the classroom.

Alice Out Of Context: Respond - 2 views

  • Okay, why didn't you just say that?
    • Denise Caparula
       
      How true - How hard is it to say "I'm not sure - I'll get back to you?" This happens a lot at work when appointments are sent out for meetings. People don't accept, don't decline, don't comment, so you have no idea who is going to be at the meeting. Courtesy, people!
  • If I don't have time to respond with two sentences, what am I doing checking email?
    • Denise Caparula
       
      Terrific argument - if you don't have time for quick responses, you should be spending your time doing something else. Don't check your email with no intention of returning any communication. That's worthless.
  • Just respond.
    • Denise Caparula
       
      Amen!
  •  
    Great article about responding to email in a timely manner, even when you don't have any answers for the sender or are incredibly busy. Enjoy!

Trying Something New? Seven Things that Boost Success Rates - 1 views

  • Don’t just up and do it because you think it sounds like a cool idea.
    • Denise Caparula
       
      So common with tech! Rather than first considering the learning objectives and how best to accomplish them, many start with some cool thing they'd like to use and work in reverse.
  • aren’t done in isolation
    • Denise Caparula
       
      You don't have to teach in a silo! Running new ideas past a colleague and discussing them can help you to better anticipate potential pitfalls and develop preventive strategies. Also, others might get excited about your idea too and join in!
  • It’s essential that you receive feedback from students
    • Denise Caparula
       
      Some go out of their way to avoid student feedback, as if it makes them somehow weaker. Show your human side, model the learning process - that's one of the best things you can do for your students!

  • As with most everything else in teaching, the second time through is better
    • Denise Caparula
       
      It's really frustrating when an instructor tries something new, then automatically discards it because it wasn't perfect the first time. What is? Try it again with some tweaks, don't just give up.
  • Start planning what you’ll do differently
    • Denise Caparula
       
      One of the best "teaching tricks" out there is to keep a running log/journal/etc of changes you want to make the next time through. Put it in writing somewhere you won't lose it; you may think you'll remember it, but it's more likely that thought won't return to you until you encounter the same problem next time.

    This is a terrific article sharing tips about implementing new practices in your classes. Great primer on how to avoid common pitfalls, and help increase your chances for success. May the odds be ever in your favor!
