Really happy that I spotted this information. The only problem I have with reading on the internet is the distraction
Texts are mostly informational.
I actually think the informality of text online can be beneficial for students because it helps eliminate the fear of being wrong or right it is more about your own personal perception.
Every English class starts with a moment of quiet after which students are asked to share their energy and stress levels.
I like the idea of having students share something about themselves in the beginning of class. I always enjoyed working together in math because I often struggled and it was easier for me to ask a student for help rather than a teacher. I think collaborative learning is a great way to make sure everyone is understanding the content and not just hiding behind their peers.
Starting with a good toolkit is essential for designing learning experiences that reach the Modification and Transformation level of the SAMAR model.
I think it is important that the technology you decide to use is actually providing the students with and advantage and is a useful tool. I have seen technology be extremely beneficial but when it is not well thought through it can feel out of place and confusing.
Young people learn best when actively engaged, creating, and solving problems they care about, and supported by peers who appreciate and recognize their accomplishments.
Watching children learn through creating and solving problems is really fun to see because they are capable of more than we expect also it sticks with them better so they can come back to the information later when it comes up
lStudents will understand their own eating patterns and ways in which these patterns may be improved.Using these standards as the starting point, I need to decide what enduring understanding I want my students to take away from the unit. Although I've never deliberately thought about enduring knowledge, per se, I like the concept and think that it will help me focus my teaching and limited class time on the truly important aspects of this unit.
I like the idea of developing an end goal at the beginning of the unit that way you can revolve the whole lesson and all assessments around that goal in order to ensure it is reached.

I really enjoyed this interview because it shows that we have a lot to gain from students in terms of technology. The children who I babysit are 7 and 9 and they are often assisting me with technology. It just goes to show you that they have a huge capacity to learn especially when it is something they are interested in.
