A specific software, in itself, is rarely the solution to developing skills your students are lacking. The reason and rationale behind using a specific software is key and should be something that is written down and shared across staff and students so everyone is on the same path.

British Columbia has gotten rid of letter grades for students in Kindergarten up to grade 9: “Proficiency scale assessment regards learning as ongoing, whereas the letter grade and percentages system viewed learning as an event with a definite end.”

I am working on my own #education website for #college students, especially those who are writing their first college-level #essays. I am going to include things like #formatting and #grammar with an emphasis on making them college-appropriate.

What I'd like to know is what sort of questions or anxieties you had #writing for college classes when you first started out? This is a little research on my part for guides and topics.

Please share this if you can.

What's the most productive part of a class? When do students learn the most?

I've often heard "the research shows" that the first and last five minutes have the greatest effect.

I looked into that research.

Preview: not a persuasive claim.

(I think ALL minutes can be equally productive if we plan correctly.)

The right mask makes it easy to teach, perform, or speak in public.

A little musical reminder of why he was kicked off Twitter in the first place.

¿En qué consiste la enseñanza de las ciencias mediante conflictos cognitivos?

Does movement help students learn?

Specifically, do students learn more when THEY manipulate triangles than when their TEACHERS do so?

The field of #EmbodiedCognition is beginning to explore such questions.

Here's one example:

Is it true that "students switch their #screens every 19 seconds?"

a) Yes: ONE study with TEN people reached that conclusion

b) To quote Dan Willinhgam: "One study is just one study folks."

c) So, let's dig deeper...

Open tunings make it easy to play guitar with just one finger, like I am here - it helps if you change the song a bit!

Apparently Joni Mitchell used lots of open tunings to compensate for weakness in her hand due to polio.

@tabitasurge

Hello Tabita -- we've interacted very occasionally over on Twitter.

One quick thought: Mastodon is VERY hashtag focused. If you write "#edumastodon" instead of "edumastodon," you'll get looped into MANY more conversations.

Hope that's helpful.

Hi everyone, here is my #Introduction! 
I am a head of #science at an international school in #Singapore. I mostly teach #physics, and I also teach science to EAL/BML learners.

I love #reading, going to the #gym, and I love to #travel around #Asia!

Really looking forward to meeting like-minded people here!
