    "Social signals are one of the factors that human beings use to gauge authority, trustworthiness, and importance. A web page that shows a lot of social shares appears more important or authoritative than a web page with very few social shares."

    A key factor for New Literacies. Students need to understand how the social connections they make in a digitally connected world matters. #newlit

      I like how the author gives a summary of what folktales incorporate.

      The moral of many of the tales is that the biggest and strongest are often done in by the quicker and tricker.

  • The folktale is a story, passed down verbally from generation to generation

      This is a second article that makes some really good, but scary points about what kindergarten is like these days.
  • research shown that young students are not reliable test takers
  • kids were given a test on a platform they were not able to properly manipulate
  • ...13 more annotations...
  • Kindergarten
  • is now academic, “the new first grade
  • forced to sit for hours
  • kids are considered failures if they
  • can’t read by the time they enter first grade
  • They aren’t developmentally ready
  • results
  • to lobby for more funding for
  • preschool
  • preschoo
  • preschools
  • turned into academic enterprises too
  • Standards can lead to teaching of skills in ways that are not effective or meaningful, to the narrowing of the curriculum, and to less time for play and hands-on learning experiences that are important foundations for later school success.
