Holiday Reading - Christmas 2019 - The Learner's Way - 1 views

  •  
    With the Christmas Holiday's finally here this is the perfect opportunity to catch up on some of that reading which has been delayed while more pressing matters are dealt with. Here are the top items on my holiday reading list. With a project underway that explores a conceptual based approach to teaching mathematics there is a bias in that direction.

Five reads for September - The Learner's Way - 1 views

  •  
    For teachers in Australia, the long Term Three is drawing rapidly to a close. Indeed as I write this just ten days remain before a two-week break. This is the perfect time to consider a holiday reading list. Just enough time to raid the school library or place an order with your favourite book store. Here is what's currently occupying space on my nightstand.

Essential Reading for Teachers Interested in Thinking - The Learner's Way - 2 views

  •  
    If you are interested in building a classroom culture where thinking is noticed, named and celebrated, there are three books which make essential reading. They provide clear evidence for why teachers should focus their efforts on encouraging and normalising thinking and offer research-backed strategies to support this. The books are the result of ongoing research by Harvard's Project Zero and their lead author Ron Ritchhart.

6 Ways Students Can Collaborate With iPads - Edudemic - 0 views

  • Added by Greg Kulowiec on 2013-01-23 The following post is written by Greg Kulowiec of EdTechTeacher.  Join EdTechTeacher at the iPad Summit in Atlanta on April 10-12. The app store is loaded with options that allow students to create content on their iPads.  From comic strip creators to mind maps, video editing and publishing, screencasting & digital books, the options for individual student creation are expanding. However, collaboration between students is often a critical component of any classroom activity or project and increasingly there are options available that allow for collaborative efforts across iPads. Below are six ways to support collaboration between student iPads that cover the spectrum of creation options that range from text to digital storytelling to video creation. Explain Everything ($2.99)
  • A flexible and powerful screen casting option, students and teachers can collaborate on screencasts by exporting Explain Everything project files from an iPad.
  • Google Drive (Free)
  • ...1 more annotation...
  • BookCreator ($4.99

    There are plenty of content creation apps, but this blog outlines apps that support collaboration between students. Diigo has long been a favourite of mine, but I think Subtext (free) could be a real winner for Academics looking for a collaborative reading tool.

Active Learning | CRLT - 3 views

  •  
    Active learning is a process whereby students engage in activities, such as reading, writing, discussion, or problem solving that promote analysis, synthesis, and evaluation of class content. Cooperative learning, problem-based learning, and the use of case methods and simulations are some approaches that promote active learning. This section provides links to bibliographies, research summaries, articles, and other resources about active learning.
