I really found Dan Meyer’s Ted Talk to reverberate with me and my own teaching. For some time I watched the US education system teach to the test at an overall expense to learning. Now that I am teaching in Asia, […]

I really like that idea of an Oscar-like awards program for instructional videos. Maybe with non-teachers creating these, it would raise awareness of exactly how much work actually goes into making quality ones. […]

I agree with you. When looking towards secondary education, I believe that they are definitely not leading the way at all. I too agree that a top down systematic approach is ideal, but I also believe that it has […]

The other day my husband and I were talking, and he mentioned that he thought that we may see an actual decrease of laptops in the classroom within the next 50 years or so. Of course I thought he was […]

The dawn of a new era in the classroom is here. The world is more connected now than it ever has been before. So why hasn’t the educational system kept pace and changed alongside?
As a United States citizen, it […]

Being part of the COETAIL course has brought to my attention a new awareness of all of the technology actually used in the classroom today with our students. Before I started the course, I wasn’t reflecting and/or […]

I hate to think it, but honestly I have recently been imagining what my parents must have felt like when the first computer came out. I can hear the words now, “just what will they come up with next?” This makes […]

Obviously I am aware of what a copyright is. We see copyrighted material everyday: on books we use, products we consume, and in the media. Basically copyrights are all around us, but it wasn’t until recently that […] -

I have to admit that I was sold on the idea at first explanation. I even wondered why nobody had thought of this concept before? It is so simple. Instead of lecturing during class time and assigning […]

I actually had the same experience as Paige as far as when I actually began utilizing Twitter.
