The problem with 'sext' ed - 1 views

  • Sexting is just the silent canary in the coal mine. It's the sign, not the cause, of the dangerously cavalier attitudes toward sex and sexuality that have been building up in teen culture for years now. The only surefire cure is a full-blown evacuation -- a complete retreat from the mainstream movies, videos, video games and songs of the day that sexualize kids before they've even reached puberty (or, in some cases, potty training).

IWB's Help or Hurt? « My Island View - 1 views

  • I believe that IWB’s are an asset to the classroom. They can seamlessly use web 2.0 applications to engage students in creative and constructive lessons for learning. The important element in this however is the training of the teacher using the IWB. Without training the user, the IWB becomes an expensive video projector or an expensive PowerPoint presentation tool or a very expensive hat rack.
  • with a pilot who had a 747 placed in his driveway as an incentive to fly a bigger plane without training?
  • Kids understand IWB’s and want to use them. It’s the adults who need to be brought along. Creativity should be the focus and remembering should be the support.
