    This site is an example of the value of being a social aggregation space for the topic. I can see how MyBlend would bring the added value of being Michigan centric.

'Flexible' Classrooms: Blended Learning 2.0? - Education Week - 4 views

  •  
    There is no specific technology tools discussed in this article beyond "computers", but I think it is a good example of the writing style that our blogs could take on in that it gives a snapshot of what this classroom "looks" like. In our blogs we can go into specifics about how "flexibility" and customization can be brought to the F2F environment via teacher's workbench interventions.

      There has been so much coverage of Greg Green that I think we should do some sort of post here that talks about the coverage and the questions that still exist as it relates to how they are customizing and personalizing learning for their students in the classroom.
  • I’m in charge of doing my best to make sure that Clintondale students get the best education possible when they walk through our doors.
  • Almost 75% of our students receive free or reduced-price lunch because of today’s economic climate

  • Every year, our failure rates have been through the roof.
  • In English, the failure rate went from 52% to 19%; in math, 44% to 13%; in science, 41% to 19%; and in social studies, 28% to 9%. In September of 2011, the entire school began using the flipped instruction model, and already the impact is significant. During the first semester of the year, the overall failure rate at the school dropped to 10%. We’ve also seen notable improvement on statewide test scores, proving that students’ understanding of the material is better under this model.

Simple technique that helps your students to remember more | The Edynco blog - 0 views

  • The educator’s role has changed – that’s the fact. Students don’t need educators to produce/present new information – they can find them everywhere. And they are good in browsing, searching and collecting different information sources. The problem is that they don’t know how to connect them in a meaningful way.
  • The challenge I’ve faced was how to incorporate everything I read about cognitive overload in today’s fast changing digital environment.
  • Bite – sized information in a relation with curation

  • Use everything you already have, filter out irrelevant information, include your own thoughts and connect everything in a new and coherent whole that is digestible and meaningful.
  • 5 benefits of this technique: Students take control of learning pace and maintain interest. This kind of a structure facilitates reusability and easier updating. Presenting from general to specific helps students to use, store and recall information much easier. In spite of different learning resource types, Learning Map gives students a consistent graphic outlook. Supports changing of reading behaviour – 4.4 seconds for every 100 words, non-linear reading.
