Are we preparing students for life? « My Island View - 0 views

  • We cannot continue on the current path of education if we want to prepare our children for their future. Our children will not live in the world that we grew up in. We need to prepare them to be flexible, critical thinking, problem solvers.

Building a professional learning network on Twitter « My Island View - 0 views

  • Building a professional Learning Network consisting of quality educators, who responsibly share quality information and sources, takes time and requires a plan. It is my belief that the people you follow are far more important than those who follow you.
  • How do you find those quality educators to follow in order to add value to your PLN?

Why Change as an Educator? | My Island View - 0 views

  • As much as some people may yearn for the simpler times of the past, life will continue to move forward as the natural order of society requires.
  • If we do not take time to understand new information and how it interacts with what we do, we, as a profession, may go the way of typewriters, photographic film, super 8 film, 8 track cassettes, landline telephones, or block-ice refrigeration.
  • Staying up-to-date, relevant, on information in your own profession is a moral imperative. We can’t expect what we learned as college students to carry us through a 30 or 40-year career.

"Cellphones are a Distraction" « My Island View - 1 views

  • Note-passing is the bane of a teacher’s existence and this method is technological. Again, there are procedures in place for passing notes. The teacher needs only to now stipulate written or digital; problem solved.
  •  Smartphones are powerful, mobile, personal learning devices.  But of course, there is that damned control issue thing.
  • Why not teach them how to maximize their learning. We can’t expect them to use the technology appropriately if they “learn it on the streets”.
