Today, it is imperative that we make changes to our traditional school paradigms to meet the learning needs of our students for today and their futures. We need to reimagine how we structure our schools to promote ongoing daily collaboration opportunities for teachers for the purposes of planning, with the explicit goal of improving student learning. I think we can take steps toward this by restructuring and reimagining the spaces and roles of our Teacher-Librarians and Planning Time Teachers.

Check out the Article comments too, teachers have posted jokes and suggestions, too.

I believe that humour activates new parts of the brain and helps everyone to make unexpected connections, creates agile minds and makes learning fun! |

If students have a stake in planning their goals, does it work?

A useful resource on appropriate implementation of educational technology and its practical implications for students. This empirically-based study, indicates that addressing museum-based multiliteracies within a blended learning environment can be meaningful for ubiquitous learning.

In this article, a design-based research approach is presented, which utilizes multiliteracies pedagogy to support ubiquitous learning during the design of a student-generated virtual museum. The findings from implementing the museum-school synergy, indicate that there is potential for beneficial ubiquitous learning experiences for students when theory-based practice is undertaken.

An engaging read. While the majority of the topics this article discusses has been drilled into pre-service teachers' heads over and over, there is definitely nothing wrong with reading a synthesised refresher every once in awhile. Sometimes it can be all too easy to believe you know how to implement certain things, when instead you have unknowingly fallen into a pit of learning and teaching monotony.

Language teaching presents us with a lot of tools to deliver our lessons but we will always be wondering whichever is the most appropriate for an specific class or student. This article presents some meta in the topic of strategy selection when it comes to language teaching.

The strategies presented here allow students to become much more independent learners. Teachers should know when to apply each planned strategy and how to help students develop an understanding of that strategy. When teachers take into account the ability, willingness and emotion of students, learning strategies are effective.

Measure the wrong things and you'll get the wrong behaviors." This simple statement succinctly characterizes why the American education system continues beating its head against the wall. Throughout education, an increasingly rigid, closed loop of assessment is systematically making schools worse: Define things children should know or be able to do at a certain age; design a curriculum to instruct them in what you've decided they should know; set benchmarks; develop tests to see if they have learned what you initially defined; rinse and repeat. This narrow, mechanistic approach to education does not correspond to the reality of child development and brain science, but the metrics and assessment train charges down the track nevertheless. So what's wrong with that, you might ask? Isn't school about teaching kids stuff and then testing them to see what they've learned? In a word, "No." It simply doesn't work, especially with young children. As Boston College Professor Peter Gray wrote in a recent Psychology Today article: Perhaps more tragic than the lack of long-term academic advantage of early academic instruction is evidence that such instruction can produce long-term harm, especially in the realms of social and emotional development.
