The question was "how might we incorporate writing as a tool to ensure student motivation and publication in a long term project?".The 4th grade students are doing a project called What Floats Your Boat? Eventually they will build a boat that can hold a 4th grader. Great project and I received so many ideas and bits of inspiration.It was the largest online protocol, I think 26 people. There were attendees from Australia, India, Canada, and the US. It was exciting to…See More

Creativity and Design

I have been reading and thinking about how significant creativity is in education. I stumbled upon Ewan McIntosh’s blog on March 12th, Design Thinking: not just for Design and Technology class. http://edu.blogs.com/I thought the video had some excellent points. I love the thought of more design in the classroom and would like to see more students come up with original works of art rather than go the easy way with canned graphics or Google images.

Grant Possibility - Next Generation Learning Challenge

Here is an interesting grant possibility to design a module for middle school students to improve their ability to successfully learn core content standards. Information about the script is here: http://nextgenlearning.org/

they do give two examples of the kind of projects they are looking for:
 A modularized online course of study that may be composed and sequenced with a variety of other materials and deployed in a variety of learning environments. Note: there is not an expectation that an entire year-long course of study be completed.
 An online, collaborative environment in which students are asked to practice and show mastery of literacy Common Core Standards within the context of solving biology problems.
