Why More Schools Aren't Teaching Web Literacy-and How They Can Start | November Learning - 2 views

  •  
    "Fourteen years after writing Teaching Zack to Think, there is still no Internet skill more critical than Web literacy. However, simply teaching students to be able to search for and validate information is not enough. The ever-growing amount of information on the Web and the immediate access to experts and peers from around the world create great opportunities for thoughtfully organizing and expanding upon learning. Alan November and Brian Mull have recently written an article titled Why More Schools Aren't Teaching Web Literacy-and How They Can Start, which now appears on the eSchool News site and discusses a three-part framework for making sure students are Internet savvy."

Five Best Practices for the Flipped Classroom | Edutopia - 2 views

  •  
    " It doesn't solve anything. It is a great first step in reframing the role of the teacher in the classroom. It fosters the "guide on the side" mentality and role, rather than that of the "sage of the stage." It helps move a classroom culture towards student construction of knowledge rather than the teacher having to tell the knowledge to students."

He shows the power of interactive exercises, and calls for teachers to consider flipping the traditional classroom script -- give students video lectures to watch at home, and do "homework" in the classroom with the teacher available to help."

Study: It's not teacher, but method that matters | Teaching and Learning Excellence - 1 views

  •  
    ""It's really what's going on in the students' minds rather than who is instructing them," said lead researcher Carl Wieman of the University of British Columbia, who shared a Nobel physics prize in 2001. "This is clearly more effective learning. Everybody should be doing this. ... You're practicing bad teaching if you are not doing this." The study compared just two sections of physics classes for just one week, but Wieman said the technique would work for other sciences as well, and even for history."
