Howard Gardner: 'Multiple intelligences' are not 'learning styles' - 9 views

  •  
    A discussion of the difference between Multiple Intelligences & Learning Styles, as well as three tips for teachers: 1. Individualize your teaching as much as possible. Instead of "one size fits all," learn as much as you can about each student, and teach each person in ways that they find comfortable and learn effectively 2. Pluralize your teaching. Teach important materials in several ways, not just one 3. Drop the term "styles." It will confuse others and it won't help either you or your students."

Why good teachers leave teaching - 9 views

    "Why good teachers leave teaching"
  •  
    Interesting article. I have over thirty-five years' continuous experience as a teacher and librarian and am unemployable - I am simply "too expensive" to hire. Why spend $80,000+ on me when you can hire a graduate for tens of thousands less? I have knowledge, experience and skills that would be needed and valued by any school, but the Almighty Dollar rules nowadays. So this "good teacher" has left teaching, even though I still think I have much to offer. I am now studying in a field well away from education and planning a career in my new field. It's a shame that I have left education in this negative fashion, but I'm moving on, hopefully to bigger and better things.

A Model to Transform your use of ICT | Teaching and Learning in the 21stC - 0 views

  • The SAMR model has been around for a while, but I think it is time for a revisit. Most of us have been working with some element or other of 1 to 1 access, but has our pedagogy – the way we use the technology to teach in our classes – changed or shifted in that time? I would like you to take some time to reflect on how you are using ICT in your classroom. Think about which level of SAMR you are at, and what steps you can take to get to the next level.
