Let Students Submit Work in Progress. 6 POWERFUL LEARNING STRATEGIES YOU MUST SHARE WITH Teachers can apply this strategy by using concrete examples when teaching abstract concepts, then asking students to come up with their own, correcting any examples (or parts of examples) that aren’t quite right, and looking for more. Encourage students to continue this practice when they study. 6. Dual Coding.

TEACHING STUDENTS TO LEGALLY USE IMAGES ONLINE Handmade: Students can draw or paint an image on paper, create a paper collage, or even build something in 3D like a sculpture, then take a picture of it and use that photo for whatever digital product they are creating. Digital: Using simple programs like MS Paint for Windows, Paper by 53 for iOS devices, or web-based tools like Google LET'S MAKE BETTER SLIDESHOWS Much better. Do this.

Suppose you’re studying the systems of the human body—skeletal, muscular, circulatory, and so on. You could do retrieval practice by attempting to name those systems without looking at the list. A FEW IDEAS FOR DEALING WITH LATE WORK Most of my 9-week grading periods ended the same way: Me and one or two students, sitting in my quiet, empty classroom together, with me sitting at the computer, the students nearby in desks, methodically working through piles of make-up assignments. They would be focused, more focused than I’d seen them in months, and the speed with which they got through the piles was stunning.JESSICA CLAERHOUT

A FEW IDEAS FOR DEALING WITH LATE WORK Another variation on this approach is to assign a batch of work for a whole week and ask students to get it in by Friday. This way, students get to manage when they get it done. Other names mentioned for this strategy were flexible deadlines, soft deadlines, and due windows. 6. Let Students Submit Work in Progress. FIND YOUR MARIGOLD: THE ONE ESSENTIAL RULE FOR NEW Marigolds exist in our schools as well – encouraging, supporting and nurturing growing teachers on their way to maturity. If you can find at least one marigold in your school and stay close to them, you will grow. Find more than one and you will positively thrive. Few teachers will be lucky enough to be planted close to a marigold – being NOTHING SAYS OVER 40 LIKE TWO SPACES AFTER A PERIOD Here it is: Unless you are typing on an actual typewriter, you no longer have to put two spaces after a period. Or a question mark. Or an exclamation point. The rule applies to all end punctuation. Just one space. Really. Yes, really. Here’s why: Back when we used typewriters, every character was given the exact same amount of spaceon the page.
TEACHING STUDENTS TO LEGALLY USE IMAGES ONLINE Handmade: Students can draw or paint an image on paper, create a paper collage, or even build something in 3D like a sculpture, then take a picture of it and use that photo for whatever digital product they are creating. Digital: Using simple programs like MS Paint for Windows, Paper by 53 for iOS devices, or web-based tools like Google LET'S MAKE BETTER SLIDESHOWS Much better. Do this. To find presentation mode in PowerPoint, click Slide Show on the top menu, then choose From Beginning or From Current Slide. In Google Slides, go to the top right and look for the Present button. From there, you’ll have several options for 6 POWERFUL LEARNING STRATEGIES YOU MUST SHARE WITH Teachers can apply this strategy by using concrete examples when teaching abstract concepts, then asking students to come up with their own, correcting any examples (or parts of examples) that aren’t quite right, and looking for more. Encourage students to continue this practice when they study. 6. Dual Coding.

Having these kinds of conversations—embracing the gray area—isn’t easy. It requirespatience.
A FEW IDEAS FOR DEALING WITH LATE WORK Most of my 9-week grading periods ended the same way: Me and one or two students, sitting in my quiet, empty classroom together, with me sitting at the computer, the students nearby in desks, methodically working through piles of make-up assignments. They would be focused, more focused than I’d seen them in months, and the speed with which they got through the piles was stunning. 6 ED TECH TOOLS TO TRY IN 2020 The Tools. 1. Floop. floopedu.com. Feedback is arguably one of the most effective tools for learning. The sooner students get it and the more specific it is, the better it works. Floop was built by teachers to make feedback faster and more specific. Here’s how it works: Students send pictures of their work in progress to the teacher, alongIMAGE CAPTIONS
I was playing with adding image captions to my posts but I can't figure out how to center the caption under the picture. For some reason it always shows as centered in the editing page but becomes left justified when I publish it. Can anyone offer a tip on how to address this? I'm sure RETRIEVAL PRACTICE: THE MOST POWERFUL LEARNING STRATEGY Retrieval practice is the act of trying to recall information without having it in front of you. Suppose you’re studying the systems of the human body—skeletal, muscular, circulatory, and so on. You could do retrieval practice by attempting to name those systems without looking at the list.

THE COMPLIMENTS PROJECT I’m posting this at a time when most of you are just starting your school year, so I think it’s important to mention that I feel this is a project that would be best done later in the school year, when students know each other pretty well. WHAT SHOULD YOUR TEACHER BOOK CLUB READ? When people talk about teachers having summers off, most teachers laugh. You know that although summer gives you more unscheduled time to travel, rest, and spend time with family, you also use a big chunk of that time preparing for the next school year. HEXAGONAL THINKING: A COLORFUL TOOL FOR DISCUSSION While hexagonal thinking is not new in the world of business and innovation, it’s just making its way into the classroom.
