Rock Hudson commented on the post, Rude < Mean < Bully, on the site Digital Bytes 2 weeks, 1 day ago

I agree that students, […] -

Gary
I like your points to consider as teachers, about having a positive digital foot print. As an adult I have been around a while and am very aware of my foot print making a good impression in the sand.

Rock Hudson commented on the post, Flip vs Mini Lesson, on the site Chewing Over 5 months, 1 week ago
Hi There,
I hear your points. Like you I work on the workshop model, mini lesson 10 mins. I would hate to do away with that and have the kids looking at a screen for their mini lesson. I think there is something […] -
Rock Hudson commented on the post, Nothin’ But Net(S), on the site James Couch 5 months, 1 week ago
James this is a great reflection. I agree it has to be a joint effort of parents, teachers and IT teachers, when it comes to teaching the NETS. I also think you have hit the nail on the head with your two steps! […]

Michelle, I like your idea of videoing the students and then letting them view the video to analyze their skill development. In any professional sport today, games, practices, drills etc. are taped, and then […]

My grade 4 class is not a 1 to 1 class. We have a cart of 12 net-books for 24 students. When I need more I borrow another cart from a team mate.

Rock Hudson wrote a new post, Technology Learning Theories and the Future of Learning, on the site Movin' Forward 5 months, 4 weeks ago
I think I would be a brave and perhaps a foolish person to say that education will not change because of technology. Yes I do believe it will change.
Where and how will it change? If I had a crystal ball I […]

Before today I did not have any idea what a flipped classroom was. After completing several readings and watching videos I think I have some understanding of it.
If I were to tell my grade 4 students that our […]
