NOVA | A Walk to Beautiful | Two Worlds | PBS - 0 views

  • Yet for women in developing nations—far more so than in wealthy countries like those in North America and Europe—there is also reason to be fearful. One in five African women, for instance, will lose a baby during labor or soon after. And each year, hundreds of thousands of women in Africa will themselves die or suffer debilitating injuries during pregnancy and childbirth. In this quiz, get a sense of the stark disparities in maternal health for women in rich and poor countries.

      This is super sad! Great statistic however, to use in a child development or health class.

    Compares two women on opposite sides of the world and their pregnancy. This would be really good for a Child Development class or even a World Geography Class.

Stimulating Critical Thinking through a Technological Lens - 0 views

  •  
    Stimulating critical thinking using technology has the potential to create more in depth understanding of science and math content by students when engaged in learning activities which integrate in-class and on-line technology resources. Technology tools support stimulation of both inquiry-based and critical thinking skills by engaging students in exploring, thinking, reading, writing, researching, inventing, problem-solving, and experiencing the world outside their classroom. This is accomplished through learning content through the lens of video to multimedia to the internet (Using Technology to Improve Student Achievement, NCREL, 2005).

LDS.org - Ensign Article - Questions, the Heart of Learning and Teaching - 0 views

  • “Some questions invite inspiration. Great teachers ask those. That may take just a small change of words, an inflection of the voice. Here is a question that might not invite inspiration: ‘How is a true prophet recognized?’ That question invites an answer which is a list, drawn from memory, of the scriptures and the words of living prophets. … “But we could ask the question this way, with just a small difference: ‘When have you felt you were in the presence of a prophet?’ That will invite individuals to search their memories for feelings. After asking, we might wait for a moment before calling on someone to respond. Even those who do not speak will be thinking of spiritual experiences. That will invite the Holy Ghost.”1
  • “The major role of a teacher is to prepare the way so that the [students] will have a spiritual experience with the Lord. … All true gospel teaching is done by the Holy Ghost. … We must be careful not to get in the way. … The most important thing a teacher can do is to help the student feel the Spirit of the Lord.”

YouTube - Valentine for Perfect Strangers - 0 views

shared by dana hallstrom on 03 Dec 09 - Cached
  •  
    I first came accross this in the BYU Museum of Art. The plaque described the artist as "is a video and electronic media artist who critiques popular media genres by humorously subverting their intended messages and exposing our engagement with their often juvenile content...The artist presents us with a voyeuristic world in which alternative personas can be digitally appropriated. His work poses the question: Can one find meaningful relationships in a virtual world?" Besides being an example of using technology to create art, I like the questions it raises. Do you think that technology can replace meaningful interactions?
