    A friend has recommended the use of this add-on in Firefox in order to document URLs and other online research. I will install it on my systems, use it for a bit, and get back to the rest of you according to how successful I think it is. BTW, this is a tool that would only be needed for those doing research that needs to be documented in this (and other/later) courses (so probably only relevant to students in the 060 course, for now).

    I hope this picture displays properly on students' computers. What do you think of it? What does it seem to be "describing"? How does it make you feel? What would you like to say about it? Does it remind you of anything that has ever happened to you?

TeachPaperless: Paperless High School Newspapers! - 0 views

  • Our kids here at school have just gone to an online edition. And immediately, the buzz around here has been about the RSS feed, subscriptions beyond the immediate school community, and the future of editorial and opinion blogs.
  • And in an age when the pro newspapers are still trying to figure out what's going on, it's great to see kids who already get it.

    Does anyone want to champion the idea of a TRU student paper online?

Lesson Plans: Writing - Combining Ideas to Write Paragraphs - How to Write in English - 0 views

  • This lesson focuses on helping students develop a strategy for combining various ideas into well formed sentences which then combine to produce effective descriptive paragraphs.
  •  
    As I followed Daryl's bookmark (Thanks, Daryl!) to this site, I found this page offering help for people who are having trouble getting the hang of what to include and what to leave out when they write a paragraph. This material (notice the exercises) may also help when students are considering whether or not to begin a new paragraph (in essay writing) or to continue without a paragraph break.

TeachPaperless: Fountain of Youth: Reflections on Teaching Uses of Social Tech to Young... - 1 views

  • Because we need our teachers to understand that it's not about 'using tech', but rather is about fully engaging in the reality of the 21st century. And we need them to understand that -- if anything -- social tech is a fountain of youth when it comes to learning and ideas.
    • J.Randolph Radney
       
      The claim implied here is that the new Web 2.0 technology like social media, social bookmarking, blogs, and the like are not going to go away. Rather, they are going to become the paradigm for social interaction at a distance. How may the development of such technology and its use in classes encourage greater interest among students in what is taught? How can such technology make it easier for students to complete coursework?

TeachPaperless: What to Do When Students Abuse Social Technology - 0 views

  • The parents need to understand that social technology is not going away. And they need to understand that it is in their own best interest that their kids understand both how to use it and how to be responsible digital citizens.
  •  
    Sometimes people worry that social media increases our ability to bully one another. In this website, the author seems to advocate responsible use and the teaching of proper social accountability as a remedy for this possibility, rather than an attempt to keep students away from online blogging and similar things.

TeachPaperless: Tales of a Third Grade Blogger (or, The Year Social Tech Broke) - 0 views

  • Turns out their teachers (same ones I wrote this letter to) are crazy about the idea of their students blogging. And so, they've given my boys permission to do their weekly home/school connections via their blogs.
  •  
    It's time to catch up to these Grade 3 students. :) radney
  •  
    If Grade 3 students blog regularly, why can't we learn it?
