Robert J. Samuelson - School reform's meager results - 0 views

  • few subjects inspire more intellectual dishonesty and political puffery than "school reform." Since the 1960s, waves of "reform" haven't produced meaningful achievement gains.
  • no one has yet discovered transformative changes in curriculum or pedagogy, especially for inner-city schools, that are (in business lingo) "scalable" -- easily transferable to other schools, where they would predictably produce achievement gains.
  • The larger cause of failure is almost unmentionable: shrunken student motivation. Students, after all, have to do the work. If they aren't motivated, even capable teachers may fail.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • Motivation is weak because more students (of all races and economic classes, let it be added) don't like school, don't work hard and don't do well.
  • Against these realities, school "reform" rhetoric is blissfully evasive. It is often an exercise in extravagant expectations.

New Media Literacies - what is transmedia storytelling? - 0 views

  • Transmedia storytelling is about telling a story in different forms, across different media. The prefix "trans" means across, and "media" refers to tools (or forms of communication) one can use to convey information, so trans-media storytelling involves telling a story that unfolds across various forms.Different media let you tell stories in different ways. A comic book can have spectacular action effects that would be expensive to make on a TV show but are easy to draw. A written story might have more time to devote to a character's personal history than a 30 or 60 minute television show. Websites can allow fans to learn about characters they love while easily skipping information about characters they find less interesting. Other media include songs, paintings, novels, commercials, newspapers, and blogs.
