Free Technology for Teachers Technology Generating Work Flow in 1:1 iPad Classroom <img src=" class="headimg wp-post-image" alt="bmcldrev" title="" /> I’m finishing this first full quarter with the 1:1 iPad classroom but apps do not hold attention spans this time of year. With April, love springs to life in all of its awkward forms. Attention spans are diverted towards prom invitations and long looks out windows; lacrosse, melting snows on the softball diamond hold great appeal. <img src="
ThomsonScience | Ramblings about my life as a chemistry teacher Math Teacher Mambo CamStudio - Free Screen Recording Software Mrs. Hester's Classroom : Interactive Notebook Well, my students and I have been in quadratic functions for quite a while now! Especially since our EOC testing fell in the middle of it all. I also feel like I did much better job this year with letting them explore/figure out the intricacies before we formalized in their notebooks. So, for example on the "factoring" pages, we spent a day just using algebra tiles to understand what was truly happening and the relationships between the numbers. All that to say, quadratic functions took a long time! So... here are my notebook pages. Man, as I'm uploading, most are blurry. Our Learning Goals/SBG page. I plan to implement SBG more next year and these pages are allowing me to dabble in the idea without fully committing yet. Investigating a quadratic function for the first time... Focus and Directrix pages from Sarah. The same properties of quadratic functions pages that I did last year. Angry birds and vertex form. Standard Form and a summary page from here. Original idea and post HERE.

The Flipped Classroom Model: A Full Picture Due to Khan Academy’s popularity, the idea of the flipped classroom has gained press and credibility within education circles. Briefly, the Flipped Classroom as described by Jonathan Martin is: Flip your instruction so that students watch and listen to your lectures… for homework, and then use your precious class-time for what previously, often, was done in homework: tackling difficult problems, working in groups, researching, collaborating, crafting and creating. Classrooms become laboratories or studios, and yet content delivery is preserved. A compiled resource page of the Flipped Classroom (with videos and links) can be found at The advantage of the flipped classroom is that the content, often the theoretical/lecture-based component of the lesson, becomes more easily accessed and controlled by the learner. It is important, though, not to be seduced by the messenger. The Flipped Classroom Model Experiential Engagement: The Activity Summary
