UConn professor demonstrates the difference between presentations with text and multimedia. A nice example of why multimedia is a better tool and creates less cognitive distraction when learning from a slideshow.

"Resources and Annotations from UW-Stout's E-Learning and Online Teaching Graduate Certificate Program. Contributors are mainly from the E-Learning for Educators Course & the E-Learning Practicum Course."

6 models of blended learning, from Michael Horn: "Face-to-Face driver, Rotation, Flex, Online lab, Self-blend, Online driver."

Good thoughts on setting goals for technology use in a school, rather than allowing the technology to define the school's goals. "In the end, our advice is: be sure your school defines clear goals for what it seeks to achieve by having computing devices in the hands of its students."

"suggestions for keeping students engaged in a project and accountable for their time with computers"

"Questioning enables teachers to check learners' understanding.... These questions are often arranged according to their level of complexity; this is called taxonomy. Bloom's Taxonomy is one approach that can be used to help plan and formulate higher order questions."

"Bloom's Taxonomy and a Praying Mantis" -- a reflection on the original taxonomy through the lens of a third grade class.

Very smart writing on the distinctions between a hierarchy of thinking vs. scaffolded learning. "the notion that students have to be immersed in 'lower-level' factual and procedural knowledge BEFORE they can do 'higher-level' thinking work doesn't comport with what we know from cognitive research."

Ideas on how to assess art projects, from an art teacher. Lots of his own opinions here, but many are valid. Just take them with grains of salt.

Bloom's Digital taxonomy wheel and knowlledge dimension

Lots more rubric examples out there... just go find 'em...

Lots of examples of rubrics for web, collaborative, and digital projects from the University of Wisconsin.

Lots of examples of rubrics, both holistic and analytic.

Huge list of rubrics, but some are out of date. Don't let that spoil you on the list, though. Just keep clicking.

Grant Wiggins' website on all aspects of UbD, great and small. 

Prezi on the original (Bloom) and revised (Anderson/Krathwohl) taxonomies.

Many Diigo resources on taxonomies.

Many Diigo resources for UbD.

A synthesis of Bloom's revised taxonomy with digital tools. Bloom would love it!
