Mr. Salsich's Class - Third Grade Explorations in Learning Blogg- ett redskap för lärande Under flera år funderade jag på att använda mig av en blogg. Många gjorde det och jag var lite nyfiken men tyvärr helt okunnig om hur man gjorde. Det var en av de bidragande orsakerna till att jag inte startade någon blogg. Den andra anledningen var att jag inte ville använda bloggen som en informationskanal, det var det enda jag var helt klar över. Jag ville använda en blogg som en mötesplats, till ett redskap för lärande där man också kunde lära tillsammans. Bloggen Att lära tillsammans startade jag som helt novis tillsammans med en klass i år 6. Det som är så spännande att jobba med bloggen som ett lärande redskap är att det efter hand växer fram nya möjligheter. I veckan har vi återigen använt den till att avsluta ett tema. Nu har jag hittat ännu ett sätt att använda bloggen. Ett lärande redskap, ett lärande redskap som vi använder på många olika sätt; Skriva text till verkliga mottagare och då anpassa text efter syfte och mottagareInspirera varandra om hur man kan skriva text.
Using E-Portfolios in the Classroom For decades, students have been completing assignments in school. Often, these were seen only by the teacher, graded and returned to the student. Sometimes, the work was posted on a classroom wall or in a school hallway. With more and more schools going paperless or migrating to the "cloud" (storing files on the Internet), student work has become more easily shareable, accessible by many, and more easily organized. However, with so many options for collecting and sharing student work, it's hard to know which method or tool to use. Defining Your Needs Here are some guiding questions to consider before you commit to a tool or platform: Can student work be made public or is it housed inside a "walled garden?" While some of these questions may not apply to your situation, it is important to do your research before committing to a tool. Some Options Below is a list of tools that can be used to collect, organize and share student work. Project Foundry Google Sites* Wikispaces and PBwiki* Dropbox*

Tools for Educators - free worksheet templates, printable game templates, 100% customizable worksheet makers with images! The power of digital student portfolios SmartBlogs This past spring, I was asked to substitute teach in one of our first-grade classrooms. There were no guest teachers available that day so, as the elementary principal, I was it. Being a former fifth- and sixth-grade teacher, I was a bit out of my comfort zone. During the literacy block, I found moments to capture learning with my iPad. Why digital portfolios are important for students With the spreading use of computers and mobile technology in schools, going digital with student portfolios has become more popular. Students and teachers can use digital tools to document current understandings, make revisions as thinking changes, share student products both locally and globally and celebrate successes with peers and parents. Become a digital citizen The access that technology provides gives learners a lot of freedom.
