How To Make Students Better Online Researchers - EdTechReview - 0 views

  • Well as much as the internet is the easiest and quickest way to acquire abundance of knowledge, it comes with some cons too. For one the task of finding the exact and right place is hard, and then it’s not only collecting the right data but also organizing it in an orderly manner.
  • So the first and foremost step towards it is asking the right questions to get the right answers
  • Without a plan a person is just a clueless wanderer

Common Core State Standards Initiative | Home - 1 views

  • 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.

      Nice listing of some applications that can be used in a school setting.  Ipads will connect to Smartboards, which is useful (if you have Smartboards), and they have by far the better listing of educational software (compared to android devices)

10 Resources For Implementing The Common Core - 0 views

    • Brian Udell
       
      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.

How To Capture Ideas Visually With The iPad - - 0 views

  • By lacking a keyboard, input and production aren’t quite as natural. That isn’t necessarily because the iPad can’t accommodate such input, but rather that the software–and our habits as users–haven’t completely caught up with the not-insignificant shift in interface.
    • Brian Udell
       
      Some interesting ideas for freehand use of the iPad.  An assumption might exist here that everyone has one, but we know that is not so.  What about network limitations, and students who can't afford to BYOD?
  •  
    what a great idea!

23 Ways To Use The iPad In The 21st Century PBL Classroom By Workflow - 0 views

    • Brian Udell
       
      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.
    • Brian Udell
       
      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.

      If there is a shift in pricing at Apple (doubtful) or a move to the android platform (likely), where hardware is much cheaper, I can see this happening, maybe even sooner than 2019
  • One interesting prediction? By 2014, 50% of all post-secondary learners will take a class online.
