Exactly What The Common Core Standards Say About Technology - 0 views

  • The Common Core standards don’t just suggest novel technology use as a way to “engage students,” but rather requires learners to make complex decisions about how, when, and why to use technology–something educators must do as well.
  • With the Common Core, such use is now a matter of law.

Five awesome QR code tricks | How To - CNET - 1 views

  • Share Wi-Fi access. I wrote this up a while back, but it's pretty great: Wifi Joiner lets you create and post a QR code that embeds access info for your wireless network. This is great for home networks, coffee shops, and plenty of other places. For the moment, though, it's Android-only.
  • Get reminders as you leave the house. If you use an online task manager like Google Tasks or Remember The Milk, it's easy to create a tag called "Leaving the House," "Leaving Work," etc., then create a QR code directing to that page. Post it at the door, or anywhere else you'll be sure to see it when leaving, then scan it for reminders of things you need to do before leaving. At the very least, you won't forget your phone anymore! Have you come up with some awesome uses for QR codes? Let us know.
  •  
    QR codes are everywhere, and for good reason. They're easy to make, easier to scan, and are terrific for delivering info quickly and broadly (or narrowly, if you like). It seems likely that they're evolving, but they're still superuseful right now, and smart folks are uncovering all sorts of cool ways to make the most of them.

Citing clip art : It's a professional issue first, and a legal issue second - 2 views

  • 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.

'War-weary' Obama says Syria chemical attack requires response - CNN.com - 0 views

      Russia and Syria are culturally connected.
  • "It's important for us to recognize that when over 1,000 people are killed, including hundreds of innocent children, through the use of a weapon that 98 or 99 percent of humanity says should not be used even in war, and there is no action, then we're sending a signal that that international norm doesn't mean much," Obama said. "And that is a danger to our national security."

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.

  • 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.
