      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).

  • Modern video games are an experience, a way to interact with real people, and many have educational value.

      great point. already looking forward to reading the rest of this post!
  • Students go nuts trying to verify this: they measure parts of the room, they estimate the size of the gun, all to get accurate physical numbers to quantify the game's physics.

  • They are able to experience these laws of science on a real level and through trial and error can master these concepts

      Plus, since kids play games in real life, it draws on their interests and passions. Great way to engage

      I'd be interested to hear why you believe this statement.
  • He claims this is like reading and writing.  When you learn to read and write, it opens the door for to learn other things.  When you learn to read, you can read to learn.

      Very nice connection to literacy!
  • Boys need more interaction with male role models, especially in the classroom.
  • Many educational games are basically digital flash cards.

      Jeremy Brueck on 01 Oct 13
       
      Why do you think this is? I'd say most likely because edu game developers usually are not educators?
  • Educators need to set aside the old paradigms of education and focus more on what students are doing in the virtual space.

      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.

      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!

  • Geo-learning is a learning experience where students interact with the real world
  • Higher socioeconomic areas will have more of an advantage then lower areas
    • Jeremy Brueck
      Jeremy Brueck on 21 Sep 13
       
      This is a good point and one that is easy to overlook. How can we make Geo-Learning equitable for all students?
  • I feel that Geo-Learning has endless possiblities, so many wonderful opportunities to explore and learn about our world!

      Can you talk a little about what type of possibilities you are imagining here?
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • With Geo-Learning you can bring destinations, once hard to imagine into your classroom
  • For example, when I taught in St. Croix the children in my classroom had never seen a squirrel.  With limited technologies, I goggled pictures and facts.  Children need to visualize!  I used www.youtube.com so that they could see a squirrel in its natural habitat.

  • the Seamless Learning approach pushes the focus away from a teacher-centered environment to student-centered
    • Jeremy Brueck
      Jeremy Brueck on 21 Sep 13
       
      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

  • gaming plays a major role in many of our students’ lives
    • Jeremy Brueck
      Jeremy Brueck on 01 Oct 13
       
      So true, especially at the MS age.
  • we need to develop ways of integrating gaming and learning
    • Jeremy Brueck
      Jeremy Brueck on 01 Oct 13
       
      I agree. How can we make gaming in the classroom more legitimate? Do you think parents think that you are wasting valuable instruction time?
  • Most educators will agree with that there is a similarity between the skills you need to succeed in schools and needed for games.  These include problem solving skills, attention to detail, creativity, and persistence

  • “game environments enable players to construct understanding actively, and at individual paces, and that well-designed games enable players to advance on different paths at different rates in response to each player’s interests and abilities, while also fostering collaboration and learning”
  • parents and teachers have many concerns including aligning games with content standards, an unfamiliarity with the games, designing assessment tools, lack of research-based methods, and the cost of equipment and other resources

  • While many states and districts devote a great deal of time and resources to developing SLOs, few think about creating a technology infrastructure or managing the tasks that must be accomplished to implement thousands of SLOs with fidelity.
  • districts must manage, analyze and report on hundreds or thousands of unique assessments.

      I agree with you that this goal seems like such a stretch for a district to accomplish. It would be nice to see what the plan is for achieving this goal.
  • To ensure pre- and post-assessments are compatible and aligned for growth, an SLO technology platform should allow educators to easily view assessments and their attributes side by side, match items based on content and rigor, and apply or customize growth algorithms.

      On 10/21 I have an inservice day in my district where we will be talking about SLOs.  This has made me think of some good questions to ask about how exactly data will be collected, measured, and reported to administrators compared to the methods that we already use for these purposes.

    Great resource! I'm interested to see how the new teacher evaluations play out in the upcoming years. Seems like the majority of superintendents are in favor of changing evaluations but find it difficult to actually implement the more stringent evaluations.

    This is the source that The Ohio Department of Education would like parents and teachers to use. They have two really great resources. It includes phonics, and a variety of fiction stories, and using highlighting to focus on reading left to right. On the other hand, does every student learn the same way? What other resources can families and teachers use?
