Big Ideas - Exploring the Essential Questions of Education - 5 views

  • but don’t just yet think about it like a teacher; consider the question as a thoughtful adult.

      This is a good point. We need to consider the standards thoughtfully first.

The Great Question Press - 9 views

      I really like this question. It allows the student to really think about what they are researching and who they know that they would recommed a specific place to.
  • How are we going to fund Social Security?
  • This questioning identifies the prime arguments on behalf of a proposal of some kind.

      I can see how this type of questioning would really help prepare students for the real world.

  • Why are people so easily seduced by speculative bubbles and what can we do to reduce their power to entrance and harm investors? How can we avoid endangering pensions in the future?
    • Tracie King
       
      Very powerful question for students in high school civics/business class. Something for them to really think about for their own future.
  • What is going wrong on the job front?
  • Could I find joy and well being as an artist? as an engineer? as a teacher? as a politician? How could I protect myself from the risks and make the most of such a life?
  • Could something like the Great Depression ever happen again?
  • The Great Question Press gives students the practice they need to make sense of a confusing world and find meaning when nonsense is the main song playing on the radio.

      The younger we start the better the students will be able to answer the really tough questions when they are in high school.

Cyber Safety in the Classroom: Avoid Online Predators, Cyberbullies, and Inappropriate ... - 2 views

  • teachers who use the Internet in the classroom or who assign Internet research have the added responsibility of teaching their students to use common sense in order to avoid online predators, cyberbullies, and pornography in the virtual world.
  • kids should be armed with common sense guidelines to stay safe in the increasingly social technological world.
  • Be Kind: Never use email, IM's or online forums to bully, intimidate or ridicule another student. No student photographs should ever be posted to even a school website without that student's approval.

  • Discuss and post classroom Internet use guidelines before asking students to use computers for research or other purposes:
  • At home, allow Internet connected computers only in a family area. Monitor your child's computer use.
  • Talk to your teacher if are uncertain about whether specific online content is appropriate.
  • Since research projects may be completed outside of home, it is important to arm students and parents with safety information that will protect them outside of the classroom where Internet filters may not be available
  • Know How to "Escape": If an Internet search unwittingly takes you to an offensive website, let the teacher know so that the site can be reported or avoided in the future. Hit control-alt-delete if an offensive site will not allow you to exit.
  • In the hands of a good classroom manager, technology can give learning a whole new dimension.

      We have to remember to set very clear guidelines with our students on the use of computers in the classroom as well as other places in the school and we need to enforce the guidelines.

      I feel it is very important to have a solid cyber saftey program and to open a dialogue with the students so they have a solid plan and know how to keep themselves safe.
  • Discuss and post classroom Internet use guidelines before asking students to use computers for research or other purposes:

      I don't have internet guidlines posted in the library but I am going to do this before next school year. I will also make sure I talk to the students before they are allowed to use the computers instead of waiting until we have the saftey units.
  • At home, allow Internet connected computers only in a family area. Monitor your child's computer use.

      I think parents really need to understand the importance of children not having access to the internet in their bedrooms.
  • it is important to arm students and parents with safety information that will protect them outside of the classroom where Internet filters may not be available
    • Tracie King
       
      I think we should make sure we get information about Cyber Safety out to the parents each year and maybe host a Cyber Saftey Night at the school for parents to attend.

ISTE | NETS for Students 2007 - 1 views

      I feel it is really important to work with students from an early age on how to trouble shoot not only the equipment but the applications they are using instead of always having someone right there to do it for them. I always try to help the student help themselves. This promotes not only self-coinfidence but also builds a village of capable students.
