    Online sites for creating videos so no software is needed. I have used WeVideo, which has gotten better apparently since I last tested it last month. Use Animoto regularly, but need to watch the pacing and slow down the videos. Zimmer Twins is fun site. Need to play with it more. Have used Screenr and other screencast tools, but Screenr is one I abandoned in favor of other options. More options for using online sites to create videos continue to pop up.

      Certainly, this is something we all need to get a handle on very quickly.  These resources are quite useful, as you will see.
  • The purpose of this post is to start a discussion on TeachThought about the online resources available to teachers as they learn how to align curriculum with the Common Core State Standards (CCSS).  Since nearly all of the 50 states have adopted the Common Core, the majority of our readers need access to high-quality resources they can use for professional development (
  • Before you go anywhere else, you should visit the Common Core website.  There, you can download the standards and read them for yourself.  Talk to the text, just as our students do when they are tackling something complex.  Write your questions and opinions out on the print out.  Now you know where you are cognitively in this process.

commoncore curriculum standards educ584

shared by Brian Udell on 19 Mar 13 - Cached
  • The Common Core State Standards provide a consistent, clear understanding of what students are expected to learn, so teachers and parents know what they need to do to help them. The standards are designed to be robust and relevant to the real world, reflecting the knowledge and skills that our young people need for success in college and careers.
  • It should be clear to every student, parent, and teacher what the standards of success are in every school.

      Very helpful to have this bookmarked for easy access.  I have a feeling I will be doing a bit of backward design in my future with these.

    Provides descriptions of ways schools are using social media for communication with and among students, with parents, and with the community, as well as a general learning tool. Starts with # 10 and counts down to # 1. Need to hit page buttons to get to all the screens, but it is worth the read and worth bookmarking for later reference. This article will help teachers and administrations proceed with plans for social media integration.

    This is informative site on flipped classroom. This is becoming more popular. Students do most of the work at home, learn what they need to at home and then apply the information in the classroom. This helps make more time for the formal assessments of the students rather then the "lecturing" time. Students who don't understand, teachers will have more time to spend with them.

      I recently purchased an Ipad, specifically as a tool that I would use in the classroom.  Although I consider myself an 'Android' person, I have to admit that when it comes to educational apps, the Ipad is a better tool.

      Good read.  Ipads and the like are not magic, they need our review and input!
  • The iPad is not magic, and as many educators have found integrating them meaningfully is by no means a just-add-water proposition.

  • hey're the fastest-growing ethnic group but the most poorly educated. Do we have what it takes to close the gap?
  • hey now constitute the largest minority group in the United States and the fastest growing segment of its school-age population.
  • he Latino public school population nearly doubled between 1987 and 2007,
  • ...18 more annotations...
  • n key states in the U.S. Southwest, such as Texas and California, the Latino school-age population is already approaching one-half of all students
  • Latinos are the least educated of all major ethnic groups
  • growth in college degrees for Latinos is almost flat.
  • ata from the 1998 Early Childhood Longitudinal Study show that only one-half as many Latino children as white children fall into the highest quartile of math and reading skills at the beginning of kindergarten, and more than twice as many fall into the lowest quartile
  • Many also go to school hungry
  • Young Latino children are more than twice as likely to be poor as white childre
  • ore than 40 percent of Latina mothers lack even a high school diploma
  • Many studies have shown that school benefits poor children more than middle-class children (Alexander, Entwisle, & Olsen, 1997; Coleman, 1966)
  • Under the right conditions, schools could conceivably close the gaps for Latino children, but the schools that serve most Latino students today have not met those conditions
  • Latinos are slightly more likely than black students
  • to attend hypersegregated schools
  • One key to successfully meeting Latino students' needs is to conceptualize our efforts as a continuum of interventions rather than discrete interventions;
  • he evidence suggests that a continuing net of support for disadvantaged students is likely to significantly improve their academic outcomes and reduce the wide gaps in achievement that now exist
  • n his study of Oklahoma's universal preschool program, Gormley (2008) documented that Latino students benefited more than any other category of student from attending preschool. In both reading and math readiness, the Latinos in the program performed approximately one year above those Latino students who did not attend preschool.
  • To sustain the effects of early interventions, it is crucial to strengthen the capacity of K–12 schools to monitor and support students once they arrive at school
  • rograms promoting bilingualism have been found to produce superior academic outcomes for both Latino students whose first language is Spanish and for non-Spanish speakers, while also developing a strong competence in a second language (see Genesee, Lindholm-Leary, Saunders, & Christian, 2006).
  • High school programs that focus on immediate issues such as dropout prevention and college-going tend to be more successful for Latino youth than those with less focused goals
  • Latino students' extraordinarily high dropout rate is related, in part, to their lack of attachment to school and a sense of not belonging
  • Brian Udell on 17 Apr 13
     
    Very important topic that anyone teaching Latino/a students should read.
