  • f you want to know if your students grasp enough of a particular concept before you move on, you can use tools such as Poll Everywhere, Socrative, or Mentimeter to get a quick snapshot of the class.
  • In addition, Evernote is a powerful note-taking tool that can be accessed through any Internet-enabled device through a web browser or the mobile app. It allows users to record audio notes, and it can be a great way to provide personalized feedback to students.
  • Our students are constantly immersed in technology, yet that does not mean that they know how to use it for learning. We also cannot assume that they know how to use it responsibly either.
  • we must take the time to explicitly teach about cyberbullying, copyright, plagiarism, digital footprint, and proper conduct online.
  • It is worth your time to spend some time early in the year setting expectations for online conduct, use of information found online, and staying safe when using digital tools. For more on teaching digital citizenship, you can visit BrainPOP, Common Sense Media, or Edutopia's Digital Citizenship Resource Roundup.

  • Teacher: We Are Pawns in Someone Else’s Game
  • Schools market a product. It’s called education. It’s called reading and writing and math and social studies and science. It is called college and career readiness. But most importantly, it’s called hope and dreams. It is the future we market.
  • Or at least we used to. Nowadays, we’re forced to market high test scores and low suspension rates.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • At the end of the day, public schools can be the saviors of a nation. As the only institution in America that routinely sees 50 million young people a day, we have a chance to redefine our future. But instead of leading the way, we have lost our way and our mission, once clear as a bright sunny day, has become muddied and incoherent. Business and politics have so polluted our ranks that it has become increasingly difficult to distinguish among educational, political and business leaders
  • We give lip service to what is best for kids, but operationally, we don’t follow through. We are not allowed to. If we did what was best for kids, we would enforce behavioral codes uniformly, restructure our secondary schools to create a relationship rich culture, reform funding structures to ensure equality in opportunity, build strong home school partnerships and reestablish the teaching profession as the expert in all matters educational.
  • Until we regain our leadership role, public education will continue to be bullied and dragged into the mud. Teachers’ unions at all levels must reinvent themselves as leaders in best practices, and until that occurs, they will continue to loose footing with both the public and legal infrastructures of our country. Education leaders have embraced the conversation about single data point testing, instead of fighting against the flawed logic driving it. In backroom conversations, we all talk about the absurdity of it, but in public view, we refuse to take the lead, instead ignoring common sense and the legions of evidence that undermine its credibility.

Educational Leadership:Giving Students Meaningful Work:Seven Essentials for Project-Bas... - 1 views

pbl Projectbasedlearning EDCI325 Change-Project

shared by Nathan Gingras on 12 Jul 14 - Cached
  • A project is meaningful if it fulfills two criteria. First, students must perceive the work as personally meaningful, as a task that matters and that they want to do well. Second, a meaningful project fulfills an educational purpose. Well-designed and well-implemented project-based learning is meaningful in both ways.
  • Teachers can powerfully activate students' need to know content by launching a project with an "entry event" that engages interest and initiates questioning. An entry event can be almost anything: a video, a lively discussion, a guest speaker, a field trip, or a piece of mock correspondence that sets up a scenario.
  • A good driving question captures the heart of the project in clear, compelling language, which gives students a sense of purpose and challenge.
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • In terms of making a project feel meaningful to students, the more voice and choice, the better.
  • A project should give students opportunities to build such 21st century skills as collaboration, communication, critical thinking, and the use of technology, which will serve them well in the workplace and life. This exposure to authentic skills meets the second criterion for meaningful work—an important purpose. A teacher in a project-based learning environment explicitly teaches and assesses these skills and provides frequent opportunities for students to assess themselves.
  • Formalizing a process for feedback and revision during a project makes learning meaningful because it emphasizes that creating high-quality products and performances is an important purpose of the endeavor. Students need to learn that most people's first attempts don't result in high quality and that revision is a frequent feature of real-world work.
  • In addition to providing direct feedback, the teacher should coach students in using rubrics or other sets of criteria to critique one another's work. Teachers can arrange for experts or adult mentors to provide feedback, which is especially meaningful to students because of the source.
  • When students present their work to a real audience, they care more about its quality. Once again, it's "the more, the better" when it comes to authenticity. Students might replicate the kinds of tasks done by professionals—but even better, they might create real products that people outside school use.

      Learning is active, requires doing, could learn a lot in a PD session where teachers just CREATE or DO things with tech they could actually do in their classroom.
  • Second, professional development must be developmentally appropriate. No two teachers are the same in their knowledge of content, instruction, and students, or in their experience in applying that knowledge to the classroom. Teachers must be supported at their current position on the journey from novice to expert. Professional development must start with the teacher and build on her/his current concept of teaching and learning and his/her goals and needs.
    • jessvanorman
      jessvanorman on 24 Mar 19
       
      Knowing this- how could we differentiate professional learning for teachers? How could we create tech PD that'd be meaningful to all- google surveys?
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • Finally, professional development must allow teachers to take charge of their own professional growth. Teachers are professionals, not skilled laborers. Like all learners, teachers will only be impacted by those ideas in which they deliberately chooseto engage. Teachers must be afforded the respect to set their own course of development and be encouraged to actively monitor their own progress.

      jessvanorman on 24 Mar 19
       
      Give choice- a menu of tools so people can choose what they are learning? A menu of skill levels to choose from too?
  • Of particular importance is the role of collaboration in professional development. In nearly all studies of professional growth and change in classroom teaching, the presence of other colleagues who are attempting to do the same is the most consistent predictor of success
    • jessvanorman
      jessvanorman on 24 Mar 19
       
      People learn together and grow together, but also learn from each other. This needs to be implemented in our tech PD.
  • Third, professional development takes time. The advantage of thinking of teaching as a skill is that training can happen quickly, often in the matter of weeks.
    • jessvanorman
      jessvanorman on 24 Mar 19
       
      It'd be great to have sessions that we can learn something... go try it... then come back and practice/reflect to keep learning with the tech/new tools.
  • Perhaps the best way to take advantage of the opportunities available through technology-mediated professional learning is to integrate e-learning into a balanced professional development program that combines formal face-to-face learning experiences optimally followed by online and one-on-one support, “just in time” training and development, and collaborative work on those tasks that most directly influence the quality of teaching and learning
    • jessvanorman
      jessvanorman on 24 Mar 19
       
      In face learning, with tech tools- could possible set up a Google Classroom "Forum" for teachers to ask questions and get further help when they are using the tools after PD. A please to drop questions and get support from "expert teachers."

    I feel these traits carry over from IT Leader to being the technology coordinator. The traits that actually stand out to me include "Continue to Learn and Grow", very important with technology and in education in general. And having great problem-solving skills when it comes to "fixing" technology and finding a solution for a teacher struggling to integrate technology.

8 Characteristics of the Innovative Leader - The Principal of Change - 3 views

shared by cwjohnstone on 09 Mar 19 - No Cached
  • As we continue to look at teachers, students, and learning becoming more “innovative”, it is important that leadership changes.  As administrators often set the tone for their district or their building, if they are saying the same, it is not likely that things are going to change in the classroom.  Leadership needs to not only “think” different, but they need to “act” different.
    • jessvanorman
      jessvanorman on 09 Mar 19
       
      Innovation requires change from the leadership... this seems basic, but it's something I see lacking in a lot of areas of education. The leadership needs to inspire innovation in their building, they need to set the tone!
  •  Innovative leaders help people continuously grow with small steps that build both confidence and competence, so they are more willing to become more innovative themselves.

      Need diversity of people and ideas.
  • Spending time with people and building solid relationships with them often leads to them going miles beyond what is expected and move away from “what has always been done”.  When people know they are valued and safe in trying new things, they are more likely to do something better.  This is at the core of an innovative school.
