Seamless Learning - 0 views

  • Seamless Learning is a newly developed approach that "connects learning across settings, technologies, and activities" (Innovating Pedagogy Report 2013).
    • Jeremy Brueck
       
      Thank you for citing your source when using a direct quote!
  • sees the classroom as a place for reflection and discussion
    • Jeremy Brueck
       
      Do our current iterations of the classroom reflect this view? How can/do they need to change or adapt?
  • students then further their learning at home and across various settings while connecting and interacting with mobile devices

  • The article states specific projects that teachers and students have completed while following the Seamless Learning Approach
    • Jeremy Brueck
       
      Sounds like a great resource for teachers looking to get started with Seemless Learning.
  • the Seamless Learning approach pushes the focus away from a teacher-centered environment to student-centered
    • Jeremy Brueck
       
      This seems pretty important. As a teacher, are you ready/prepared to do this? Why or why not?
  • this approach forces students to take ownership in their own learning and encourages students to explore the many uses of mobile technology as an avenue for further learning

      The various links below are great resources! You can find everything about SLO's you are looking for.  I especially like the examples.  These would be useful when actually writing the SLOs.  
  • SLOs are now required, recommended, or identified as an example of student in growth in nearly half of U.S. states" (Lachlan-Haché, Cushing, & Bivona, 2012, p. 1).

Crowd Learning | klj45 - 0 views

  • a type of learning that occurs through technology
    • Jeremy Brueck
       
      How does it occur through technology? What types of things happen with technology that enable learning to occur?
  • First, I could use it in a small crowd form just using my students.
    • Jeremy Brueck
       
      Seems like preschool and kindergarten "centers" are really where crowd learning originated!
  • I could ask each student to draw a picture to share
    • Jeremy Brueck
       
      How about incorporating technology here? Maybe the create their apple pic using an iPad app like DoodleBuddy or on the computer using something like KidsPix. You could then post those digital pictures on your class blog to share with students and even with parents!

  • Finally, I found a small resource on TED

      TED talks are great. Very engaging. I really like this one about collaboration by Howard Rheingold. http://www.ted.com/talks/howard_rheingold_on_collaboration.html

Crowd Learning - 0 views

  • I believe that “crowd learning” is an important part of our educational society today.
    • Jeremy Brueck
       
      Why do you believe this? Explain your thinking here.
    • Rebecca Rhoads
       
      I believe that we learn by solving life's puzzles and we can do that by communicating and learning from our peers. Students would be able to grow at their own pace.
  • This would allow the students to be more independent by learning more information and taking charge of their own life.
  • They would be more intrinsic learners.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • As a teacher, I would give students the resources to look up information this could be a web, different sites to look at, or just ways to organize their information.
    • Jeremy Brueck
       
      This is a good start to thinking about how you might apply crowd learning to your classroom. What other ways could you incorporate it?
    • Rebecca Rhoads
       
      I could also incorporate a real world problem and have the students create different solutions to solve it. This would allow for them to research the problem and think of diff ways to solve it. Then they could apply it to a challenge they might be facing to get more info before making a decision.
  • Gregory Freund created an interactive program called Versal-interactive-online-courses.
    • Jeremy Brueck
       
      Interesting. I have never heard of this. I will have to check it out.
  • While it incorporates a different learning style which is more student centered, there is still a role for the instructor as a guide. Teachers can still help facilitate and guide learners to better outcomes.
    • Jeremy Brueck
       
      This is a key point here and a big shift for teachers to make. Now a guide on the side rather than a sage on the stage.

If Ohio gets serious, the third-grade reading guarantee will help kids | The Thomas B. ... - 1 views

  • Students entering third grade a year from now will be allowed to advance to fourth grade only if they achieve a minimum score on Ohio’s third-grade reading assessment.
    • Kelsey Johnson
       
      Wasn't this how it was with the 4th grade proficiency test? Student's could only move on if they passed a certain reading level?
  • Districts must take seriously the law’s requirement that they offer additional reading support to K-3 students who are identified as reading below grade level. High-quality, student-centered, intensive intervention—especially for first and second graders—should help more students read on grade level by the end of third grade and prevent mandatory retentions. Similarly, districts should consider retaining students earlier than third grade if they cannot read.  
    • Kelsey Johnson
       
      What about the school distracts that do not have money to offer extra support? Will the state end up helping these schools get the extra support they need?
