Teaching Design to K-12

The Ethics and Responsibilities of the 21st Century Classroom:  A Collaborative Guide to Best Digital Learning Practices for K-12 Teachers and Administrators

There are many lists going around about what the next decade will bring in K-12 education, especially focusing on those things that will become obsolete. Well, I decided to create my own list of 5 things that should be obsolete in K-12 education by 2020.

more than 2,000 pre-K-12 resources, including: * math, ELA, science and social studies for grades pre-K-8; * resources designed to promote middle school literacy; * Regents-aligned resources in Global History and Geography, U.S. History, Living Environment, Earth Science, Physics and Chemistry; * tools that let you save and organize resources to share with students and colleagues.

resources for K-3 classes, work on interactive white boards. Includes about 10 audio books.

Great articles and videos on Response to Intervention for Pre-K, K-5, Middle School, and High School.

"Digital games have the potential to transform K-12 education as we know it. But what has been the real experience among teachers who use games in the classroom?  In 2013, the Games and Learning Publishing Council conducted a national survey among nearly 700 K-8 teachers."

Tablet computing and mobile devices promise to have a dramatic impact on education. A growing number of schools across the world are jumping on the digital bus and embracing  iPads (less often, other tablet products) as the latest tool to teach literature in multimedia, history through games and simulations, and math with step-by-step animation of problems. Not surprisingly, student scores improve when they use iPads and their interest in school soars. I say not surprisingly because students love digital toys and in my experience work harder and longer if given the opportunity to do so with any of the digital offerings (ipods, laptops included).
