Iowa's students deserve an education that helps them succeed in today's technology rich, global economy. The Iowa Core (formerly known as the Iowa Core Curriculum and the Model Core Curriculum) provides academic expectations for all Iowa's K-12 students.
Using the concept of "Students as authentic Contributors", Mrs. Yollis' third grade students have specific job responsibilities during a Skype call to collaboratively figure out the location of their connection partner.
Lisbon is one of 44 school districts in Iowa participating in a 1:1 computer initiative.
Central City launched its 1:1 initiative in August 2008. At the time, it was touted as erasing the lines between the haves and the have-nots.
Today’s generation of students are comfortable with technology. It’s how they learn, how they play, how they live. Bringing that to school provides a relevancy that wasn’t there before.

ClassDojo lets teachers track students' behaviors with an easy +1 or -1 system - you can reward students for good behavior (participation, helping others, creativity, insight) or you can make note of negative behaviors (disruption, disrespect, tardiness).
Will my present attitude promote a positive learning atmosphere?Are all my thoughts focused on creating an educational experience throughout the class?Do I exemplify the standards of excellence I expect from my students?Am I properly prepared to make the best use of time by highlighting the growth of every student?Have I dismissed my own agenda of personal considerations so that this class will be directed toward serving students in a disciplined format of meaningful learning?
The title implies digital texts are more expensive, but the article states their functional cost is about the same. A digital version offers far more functionality for the about the same money, not to mention all the other learning resources provided by the iPad it runs on. I received the same infographic the article cites, and the same organization sent me this one two weeks earlier: http://www.onlineeducation.net/can-tech-save-education
Yes, the digital books themselves have the same overall cost overtime as a traditional textbook, however the point the author is trying to make is that with the overhead cost of purchasing an iPad for each student, it costs significantly more per student to have iPad textbooks, than it would with traditional "book" textbooks. The title may be somewhat misleading, however for already cash-strapped districts it is an important question to ponder.
Including the cost of an iPad in the cost of a digital textbook is like including the cost of the classroom desk on which a traditional textbook would sit. Most schools would not (and should not) invest in iPads solely or even primarily to facilitate digital textbooks. They invest in 1:1 environments for more important reasons (personalized learning, increased engagement, ubiquitous access to information, etc), and many schools are abandoning textbooks altogether. Waverly-Shell Rock middle school diverted its textbook dollars to the purchase of mobile apps for their students. Rapidly changing content results in open content options such as http://www.ck12.org

There seems to be some confusion in several places on the net about whether you have to “cite” (the way some students say acknowledge) clip art or not in a paper. This question has arisen because the writer cannot find a rule in their style guide about it, or because they see many others using clip art without noting the source.
