Editor's Notes
- I’m not going to show you any new technologies, but I am going to show you strategic ways to use them
- Do you remember when you were in school? You would visit your locker, carry a stack of books and place all of your papers in your binder. Some teachers may have made you organize.
- Mrs. Beat
- Fast-forward to the future and think… does this sound like you? You go to a professional development workshop and get cringe because they give you another binder to place in your vast collection!
- You begin class on Monday morning by asking everyone to take out their binders to produce their homework from over the weekend and file away the newest worksheets. You see Alana’s organized and decorative binder with décor that could rival Matha Stewart. Paul’s binder looks like it has been through World War 3. And you are amazed that Tyler’s binder seems to swallow every single assignment that you have ever given him. You see 30 different binders and 30 different learning styles sitting in your classroom.
- Oh yes binders! Either you hate them or love them. Or you love to hate them because of how much space they take. But what if there was an easier way to organize and manage information for your students?
- Easy way to share all of your classroom resources in 1 place
- Websites can be overwhelming and are often filled with more than we need
- Many people are using Livebinders as a way of social bookmarking. Instead of using Diigo and Delicious, they are using Livebinders.
- Share some recipes that have worked for me in my position.
- Traditional Curriculum are often designed with one type of learner in mind: goals, methods, materials, and assessments. Students are not reading, they are bored, electronic media, etc.
- Omri – needed PDF copy of text Jamary = get in trouble and listen
- According to research from Marzano, “The achievement gap is largely a vocabulary gap.” Many of our students don’t read because they don’t understand certain vocabulary terms. Providing a dictionary may help students understand words better. It comes down to the “Matthew Effect,” which is a term that was coined by psychologist Keith Stanovich. Extensive research on reading and language disabilities The "Matthew Effect" refers to the idea that in reading (as in other areas of life), the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. If a student has negative experiences with reading early on in their career, they are more likely to experience difficulty and avoid reading altogether
- Marzano states that students need 6 meaningful actions with vocabulary terms to understand them. Let’s say that I am using specific vocabulary with very specific definitions. Then I will create a customized set of flashcards with Quizlet. Quizlet can even give you a chance to add images to flashcards, depending on your subject matter.
- Visuwords is a great site to use for your visual learners and hands on learners, who need to manipulate and move around text and different definitions. I found that this tool was a little too confusing or cluttered for my younger learners.
- Visuwords is a great site to use for your visual learners and hands on learners, who need to manipulate and move around text and different definitions. I found that this tool was a little too confusing or cluttered for my younger learners.
- For example, I had my students read an article called the “Tale of Two Cultures” This article described the difference between the company culture at Enron versus Zappos. I had my students read the article and use Read-Write-Think’s Venn Diagram tool to label the differences and similarities (if any) between the two cultures. We used this as a discussion tool for the next day.
- At the very end, express their opinion and thoughts.
- To activate background knowledge and make connections
- PDF Outline Audio Version of the text
- Revisiting grammar lessons in the LA or Foreign Language Classroom Diagramming Scientific Processes Solving Math Problems
- To help support something and gradually take it a way. Same with learning, sometimes our students need something said again, need another way of seeing information, or need a different way of interacting with materials.
- My students recently completed a project on Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. We discussed it and now it was time for my students to demonstrate their knowledge through creating a Prezi Presentation.
- Blackhole lost for ever
- PDF Directions allow for the flexibility for students to zoom in and zoom out, but most importantly they can’t lose them!
- Each day at the beginning of class, I communicate announcements and goals once. Have you ever felt like a broken record? If we said that to our kids, they may give us funny looks. The point is…do you feel like you are repeating yourself over and over again?
- I communicate announcements and expectations once. When you have a student who straggles in, all they have to do is listen to my Voki Avatar. If they have further questions, they can ask me. But the point is, I can give my kids basic due date and handing in instructions. Sometimes this works better!
- Then I started putting supports in place to reach all learners in my classroom. Many of my students needed some extra resources to understand Maslow’s Hierarchy, so I provided a link to a website that would give more information about Maslow. You could also add your own customized Google Search engine, which could be used where you can customize the sites that will appear in your search. http://www.google.com/cse
- In any assignment I give, I tend to have 3 different types of students. The experts, the clueless, and those who need a little direction.
- I created small 1 – 2 minute video clips on my most frequently asked questions about using Prezi. This gave me the opportunity to help ALL students at the same time. The experts had resources they could turn to. The amateurs had their FAQ’s answered, and my overwhelmed students had my undivided attention. How do you create small “how to videos” to answer those FAQ’s? I use a program called Screencast-o-Matic, which will allow you to create video clips up to 15 minutes long and either save them as a video file on your computer, upload to YouTube, or save in your own personal library on Screencast-o-Matic.

- In 2010, I was given a really unique opportunity. I would co teach a course called Honors Business Management with the Hershey Company. For 34 weeks, my students learned about every single aspect of the Hershey Company from Marketing to Packaging. What textbook exists for that? Therefore, we had to be creative and make our own.
- We used LiveBinders to compile a wealth of resources for students to use.
- It was a living and breathing textbook that students could use as a college textbook.
