The Next Generation Science Standards | Next Generation Science Standards - 0 views

  •  
    Quality science education is based on standards that are rich in content and practice, with aligned curricula, pedagogy, assessment, and teacher preparation and development. It has been nearly 15 years since the National Research Council and the American Association for Advancement in Science produced the seminal documents on which most state standards are based. Since that time, major advances in science and our understanding of how students learn science have taken place and need to be reflected in state standards. The time is right to forge Next Generation Science Standards.

Cursive handwriting no longer stressed at Eastern Iowa schools | TheGazette - 2 views

  • “It doesn’t seem like there’s the emphasis on cursive handwriting today that there was when I was in school,” said Lisa Donohoe, Shelby’s mom.
  • “We do have a curriculum for cursive handwriting as part of our SLEs (Student Learning Expectations),” said Mary Ellen Maske, executive administrator for elementary education for the Cedar Rapids school district.The district uses the Zaner-Bloser Handwriting curriculum, which introduces cursive handwriting in third grade, and practice in fourth and fifth grades.The goal is 10 to 15 minutes of cursive handwriting instruction each day
  • Iowa is among 42 states and the District of Columbia, to have adopted the Common Core State Standards for English, which omits cursive handwriting from the required curriculum.

  • A 2009 study by the Thomas B. Fordham Institute in Washington, D.C., cites cursive as important for cognitive development because it “requires fluid movement, eye-hand coordination and fine motor skill development.
    • Robin Galloway
       
      Aren't there better ways to develop eye-hand coordination and fine motor skills? Note taking? Seriously? 
  • “We tell our students ‘We’re teaching you this style, but as you get older, you’ll develop your own style,’” said Thea Thies, a fourth-grade teacher at East Elementary School in Waukon. “That’s the fun part.”
  • Thies said she cites historical documents and handwriting analysis as examples of cursive handwriting in effort to increase her students’ enthusiasm of the subject.
    • Robin Galloway
       
      Yep, that should inspire them!
  •  
    Why should cursive be taught at all in this century?

Using Smart Boards in the Classroom - 0 views

    • studern
       
      In my high school the teachers would use the smart boards very interactively. Such as in physics and math, the teacher would have lessons prepared and saved on the smart board and then have questions through out the lesson for students to come up and do. This way the teacher could see if we were understanding the lesson throughout it. It was kind of like immediate feedback for a teacher and student because the student would also get to see the correct answer immediately after they did the problem.

      Satisficing~ that also sounds like me!  I need to work on making the most of my college experience!
  • The ability to find, use, and communicate information effectively and ethically is commonly known as information literacy
  • Students should develop information literacy as a "habit of mind" that enables them to be sophisticated information finders and users by the time they reach college and then the working world.

  • Information literacy is essential for lifelong learning and empowers individuals and societies
  • College students think of information seeking as a rote process and tend to use the same small set of information resources no matter their question.

  • The results of the study suggest that many college students view their educational experience as one of "satisficing" — finding just enough information that is "good enough" to complete course assignments. They miss opportunities that college education provides for exploration, discovery, and deep learning.
