Welcome to Debatepedia! - Debatepedia, Debatepedia the Wikipedia of Debates - 0 views

  •  
    Debatepedia is "the Wikipedia of pros and cons". Its mission is to "clarify public debates and improve decision-making globally". Debatepedia is a project of the International Debate Education Association (IDEA), a 501c3 non-profit. It utilizes the same wiki technology powering Wikipedia to engage you and other citizen-editors in clarifying public debates by centralizing them into a single pro/con encyclopedia. This helps you, other citizens, and leaders better weigh ALL the pros and cons, develop positions, and make more informed decisions, votes, etc... And this significantly improves democracy and people's lives.

Poetry 180 - Home Page - 0 views

  •  
    Photo of Billy Collins Welcome to Poetry 180. Poetry can and should be an important part of our daily lives. Poems can inspire and make us think about what it means to be a member of the human race. By just spending a few minutes reading a poem each day, new worlds can be revealed. Poetry 180 is designed to make it easy for students to hear or read a poem on each of the 180 days of the school year. I have selected the poems you will find here with high school students in mind. They are intended to be listened to, and I suggest that all members of the school community be included as readers. A great time for the readings would be following the end of daily announcements over the public address system.

AASA :: Harnessing Kids' Tech Fascination - 0 views

  • Executive Perspective Harnessing Kids’ Tech Fascinationby DANIEL A. DOMENECH I am intimidated by people like Alan November whose fingers glide over their computer keys and in the process go to websites that offer the answers to all the questions that would otherwise go unanswered. I do e-mail and an occasional PowerPoint presentation. I am proud of the fact I now can do e-mail on my BlackBerry as well. That’s the extent of my prowess in technology. Daniel A. Domenech Jillian, my 17-year-old high school senior, is another story. She sleeps with her iPhone under her pillow. If it were waterproof, I am sure that she would bathe with it. She does incredible things with her MacBook, from videos to post on YouTube to the content of her Facebook pages. Getting her to do her homework is a challenge, but getting her to turn off her tech tools and go to sleep is an even bigger challenge.This is the message that November, Keith Krueger and other presenters at our AASA Seattle Summit in midsummer conveyed: Education is missing the boat by not taking advantage of the love affair between our kids and technology.Personal PanicI was a young superintendent

Personal Panic I was a young superintendent on Long Island, N.Y., when, in 1978, I bought the first set of Commodore PET computers for our schools. You could play Space Invaders on it, but mostly you had to learn to program the darn thing to get it to do anything. High school courses focused primarily on learning programming language. Few could afford to buy a Commodore for home use and the power of the Internet had yet to be unleashed.
