+ Thanks Dave! I like this website. It appears they have a ton of material and articles useful for teaching. I like the fact you can search by grade level relevancy too. This is a link to an article I read about STEM education and a really cool concept called "making". It is just like it sounds, it's having students make things as they learn material, like legos, wood projects, paper projects, etc. The only thing I didn't like about the article was the mention of soft circuitry and how it was appropriate for young women because of the sewing component. I felt that was a little stereotyped but since it's just one article, the website can't be judged solely on it!
+ Loved this! I think that the "schools that work" videos are a great way to demonstrate tips. I also liked the concept of project-based learning. We learn more through doing than observing. It is so important to let students explore the material on their own or in small groups rather than simply divulging all of the secrets. The students should let the material work for them rather than you making the student fit the material.
+ I like the tips.There is one that I believe is a bit controvesial. Soem things you can "keep real" or tell the truth about.:) Otherwise, I liked the site adding it to my symbaloo now.
This is a terrific website. There is SO much information on it! I do think it's funny though that it's a George Lucas website. Wasn't he the guy that did Star Wars? I didn't know he was involved in education. The pdf on classroom management gave some great tips. I especially liked the one about allowing the students to take part in creating classroom rules. I think that would make students want to follow them more consistently.
