• Make Your Images Interactive - ThingLink

  A teacher favorite. Thinglink allows any image be interactive by attaching live links to it. Students studying the Industrial Revolution can select an appropriate image and attach links that illustrate early inventions, pioneers, the working class, maps, documents, and more. These might be self-created documents, resources, other images, etc. It’s very easy to use, and saves the created work as an embeddable link or jpeg. The picture frame on the Thinglink home page shows many ways how it can be used in education.

• Glean — Find the best videos in education for you

  Glean is a new, free resource that aims to organize and catalogue the best video video lessons on the web. Currently they have an enormous collection of math and science lessons, organized by standards and indicators. In addition to making videos easier to find, Glean has a ton of other useful features as well. Long time readers are probably expecting an introductory video about Glean, but not this time! We're just going to jump right in! And, in reality, Glean is so simple and easy to use, an introductory video isn't even necessary. Glean, which just went public a few weeks ago, is a wonderful resource for math and science educators (and in the future, the team aims to expand their collection to include the humanities and ESL lessons as well). Teachers who are looking for videos to incorporate into their lessons, who want to create a blended or flipped classroom environment, or who are trying to discover a different approach to a particular topic will find Glean incredibly useful. Picture The Glean Home Screen As you can see, when you arrive at Glean, the setup is simple. Just type in the topic you're looking for, or scroll down and you can click on a particular area of math or science to browse by standard. Picture Pick a Subject to Start Searching Picture Browse by Specific Standard and Topic (Click Image for Larger Size) After you search, you'll be presented with the best videos that match your query. Glean's algorithm is constantly learning which video lessons are the most useful, which are the least useful, and which styles of videos each individual likes best. Because of this, Glean will customize your search results towards what it thinks you will like the best. Picture The Best Videos for Each Learner Each video is also organized by specific traits, and Glean uses these to determine what types of video each individual user likes. For example, some videos include critical thinking skills, or a sense of humor, or short and simple explanations. Picture Organizing Each Video by Specific Traits The final, and perhaps best feature of Glean, is the Q&A discussion forums that are linked to each video. While a student is watching a video they can ask a question to their digital peers (and to the teachers and staff members who work with Glean) if there is anything they are confused about. Imagine assigning a video as homework for students, and while they're watching it they can have a discussion with the other students in the class about anything they're uncertain about. It's a great way to keep students involved with the lesson. Picture Ask Your Question! Finally, in the next 2-3 weeks Glean will be rolling out some major updates. The team will be adding the ability for teachers to create classes and push out video assignments to students they have enrolled. On top of that, teachers will be able to monitor and track how much of each video assignment a student actually watched. And, as I mentioned earlier, eventually Glean plans to include ESL and humanities courses in addition to math and science. They've got a great team working on the site and I have no doubt that the future updates will make the site even more of a valuable educational resource.

• 10 Commandments of Innovative Teaching – A.J. Juliani

  • Innovative teachers must offer choice
  • Students were inspired and motivated to learn by themselves…and by each other
  • Choice gives students the ability to go above and beyond our curricular limitations…try to give as much choice as possible and watch your students innovate.
  • Innovative teaching allows for failure
  • “provide growth opportunities”
  • you should start promoting epic failures in your classroom
  • a round of applause when students fail because now the learning can really begin.
  • create a culture where failure is not only accepted, but embraced…your students will not be afraid to challenge themselves.
  • Mentorship comes in all forms
  • we have to model to our students where to find the “right answers” to their questions
  • These sites and platforms can connect our learners to better information than we ever had, it would be a shame for us not to show them how to best use it!
  • Google, Siri, YouTube, Udemy, Quora
  • Technology with a purpose
  • understand which tool (technology) is right for which job (assignment or project).
  • Don’t waste your time, or your students time by using techn for tech’s sake.
  • Build something together
  • Students collaborative together to build something that matters…to them…and the world
  • they work through problems together and come up with solutions, and test those solutions, and then debate whether or not they can improve upon that solution… Give them a chance to build something together, and they’ll learn much more than they could learn by themselves.
  • . From local to global
  • they also learned that students all around the world were just like them
  • you can’t forget to have a focus on your local community.
  • Teachers need to tie “innovation” with both local and global experiences, because both allow students to interact with the real world.
  • Standards are guidelines, you are the architect
  • Don’t let new standards get in the way of innovative teaching.
  • use standards as a starting “code” for creative lessons and projects that promote design thinking and innovative learning experiences.
  • Be a learner first and model it
  • He never stopped learning.
  • He was never satisfied
  • demonstrated what a growth mindset looks like
  • he was relentless in learning
  • because of his modeling
  • it is what you do…not what you say…that speaks volumes to your students.
  • Flexible with high expectations
  • I have high expectations for myself, our team, our students, and our school.
  • Have high expectations for your students and they will rise to meet a challenge
  • also to have the flexibility to go with what is working and change paths if need be
  • keep an open mind about what is possible, and anything really can happen.
  • . A challenge that is fun
  • Learning needs to be fun.
  • it should have moments of pure fun and enjoyment
  • Let your students work hard and have fun in their learning experiences.

• Design Your Class Like A Video Game

  • how to best establish what a learner understands isn’t simple
  • Gamification and game-based learning
  • is one response.
  • By embedding diverse achievements into activities and assessments,
  • instead of one carrot stick, there are hundreds. And not just carrots, but every fruit and vegetable imaginable.

  • video games have even more to offer formal learning systems. Lots more. While what actually constitutes a video game is changing with emerging technologies, in these digital playgrounds progress is usually iterative and requires players to demonstrate proficiency in certain areas.

     

    To be able to do this before moving on to that.

  • They’ve also evolved unlocking. By performing tasks — as minor as opening a treasure chest, or as significant as completing a level — new “things” are unlocked: new areas, new weapons, new characters, new abilities and so on.

  • These mechanics serve to encourage the player, because to move forward, items need to be checked off — in a manner that is not only visible, but that rewards play, experimentation, and curiosity. And in contrast to the aforementioned mandatory training session, they are incremental, intermittent, often voluntary and reward players immediately.

     

    Climb a mountain or slay a robot enemy? Bam. Shiny new item as reward, proceeding level unlocked, game completion percentage blinks on screen. Immediate feedback and visible progress.

  • So what’s this have to do with school? A lot, actually.
  • Getting Out Of The Way
  • the matter at hand here is personalized learning.
  • Learning is very much a game. It has rules, rewards, and should be amendable to suit the goals and natural gifts of the learner.
  • they must at least match this kind of evolution by putting students first, and adapting the game to them.
  • offering diverse pathways through content to unlock, and offering equally diverse rewards for said unlocking.

  • 10 Strategies To Design Your Classroom Like A Video Game

     

    1. Realize self-directed learning not by merely suggesting it, but making it necessary to get anything done.

     

    2. Design learning experiences so that students see visible progress on a daily basis.

     

    3. Make objectives clear, and offer students multiple ways to accomplish them.

     

    4. Give students the tools to design and build what you hadn’t thought of.

     

    5. Design with iteration in mind: one skill builds on the next, and students need it all to succeed.

     

    6. Use project-based learning where students design the entire process from brainstorming to publishing.

     

    7. Give students malleable learning tools and resources that they can customize, or “upgrade” to fit their approach to learning.

     

    8. Make learning both collaborative and competitive.

     

    9. Consider challenge-based learning and place-based education, where students solve problems important to them, in communities that are watching.

     

    10. Gamify your classroom in a way that focuses not on standards, data, or “proficiency,” but personal progress meaningful to the student.

  • leading with our “ears” instead of our “mouths.”
  • listen to the interests, hopes, and dreams of our students and work at figuring out ways to make our lessons relevant to them.
  • everybody is interested in something—it just might not be exactly what we want them to be interested in
  • we need to build some bridges to help get them there.
  • being flexible while keeping your “eyes on the prize” of learning.
  • Assessing: At the start of the year
  • “assessment” comes from the Latin “assidere,” which means “to sit beside.
  • Keeping students moving forward:
  • emphasizing small wins.
  • Differentiating assignments:
  • students practice using similar reading strategies while reading different books.
  • Praising effort and learning from mistakes:
  • praise effort and not intelligence
  • “growth mindset” (the belief that intelligence can be developed through effort and practice)
  • encourage them to risk making (and learning from) mistakes.
  • students are afraid of making mistakes and being ridiculed for it.
  • “celebrate mistakes.”
  • Using flexible grouping:
  • it is also important that students have the opportunity to participate in interest-based groups, mixed-ability groups, student-choice groups, and other variations.
  • students get to see how they can contribute in a variety of contexts.”

• Rita Fernández Padilla: “Valledupar es el paraíso de mi alma”

  "Originaria de Santa Marta, Rita descubrió en la ciudad de Valledupar algo que no tenía el resto de la costa. La fogosidad y el apasionamiento de sus gentes.  “Aquí encontré mucho calor humano, un calor que brota por todos lados. Me gusta mucho la fuerza del orgullo vallenato”. También descubrió un lugar más cercano de la naturaleza, donde se puede observar con calma la Sierra Nevada y donde el verdor se inmiscuye por las calles con una naturalidad indiscutible.  “Me fascina contemplar la naturaleza, es mi vida, es mi razón de ser, vivo constantemente en abrazo con la naturaleza”, manifiesta Rita. En medio de este Valle, la compositora comenzó a sentir el efecto de los elementos que la rodeaban y a desarrollar todo su potencial creativo. “Navegaba en el mar de la inspiración –expresa Rita Fernández–. Esa brisa fresca del Guatapurí, todo llegaba a mí con ese esplendor. Valledupar es el paraíso de mi alma”. Preguntada sobre su himno, el himno que ya es de todos los valduparenses, Rita no puede negar el sentimiento de realización y satisfacción. “Siento que consagré mi alma y mi espíritu a esta tierra y a esta gente –explica con una sonrisa y luego agrega–: lo canto con amor y le doy gracias a Dios. Me fascina ver cómo un pueblo entero lo vive y lo ama”. "

    It initiated work with 47 high school and 17 elementary school students. It obtained official approval of all the courses, with very high scores, in 1978, year in which the first group of high schoolers graduated. The general development of the school continued in harmony, with the decisive support of the parents, teachers, workers and students.
