Teacher’s Perspective: Training for the Future of Learning

It doesn’t matter if it’s an accounting application, a claymation program or assessment software –if it’s being used in Hillsborough County Public Schools , David Lopez and his colleagues in the professional development department can provide training on it. This team of eight trainers, plus a training supervisor, is focused on providing professional development solely on technology products for educators at this Tampa, Florida district — “ a set-up that is somewhat unique in North American school districts. David, who is also a SMART Exemplary Educator , says that professional development is really important at Hillsborough, and by having a technology training team with a broad scope of knowledge, the district can support the effective integration of technology, such as SMART products , in the classroom. We spoke with David about being a technology trainer, the master’s degree he’s currently pursuing in instructional design and how SMART products have impacted him as an educator.

Translating math problems into the real world (video) | Cutting Edge

Why do many students struggle in math when they enter middle school? SRI researcher Phil Vahey has been studying just that. He's found that by using visualization techniques and storytelling to translate complex math problems into the real world, kids can perform better. SmartPlanet visits the research organization and gets a tutorial on a more visual approach to learning math. This video originally appeared on SmartPlanet with the headline " How SRI aims to improve middle school math skills ." http://news.cnet.com/8301-11386_3-57441056-76/translating-math-problems-into-the-real-world-video/

I believe that this can translate into many of the tools that are used in SMART Notebook 11 and Math Tools. Visualization and manipulation of math tools being shown here to improve student engagement and understanding. by david.lopez Jul 5
