Exactly What The Common Core Standards Say About Technology
The Common Core Standards, the national academic standards for K-12 schools in the United States, have now been adopted by 47 of the 50 states in the U.S. This makes them the pre-eminent source of what is being taught in the vast majority of public schools in America. Much has been made in the blogosphere and across social media of the changes compared to former academic standards that were dictated at a state level. TeachThought’s focus is on the intersection of education and technology, and the Common Core certainly takes aim at in-depth student technology use. Common Core Standards Note: The first letter represents the strand (or “area”—reading, writing, etc.), the following number the grade level, and the last number the standard number. W= Writing RI= Reading: Informational SL= Speaking and Listening W.4.6. RI.8.7. SL.11-12.2. SL.11-12.5.

Gaston county among unhealthiest counties in NC
GASTON COUNTY, N.C. -- New rankings show Gaston County is among the unhealthiest counties in the state. According to the rankings from the University of Wisconsin Population Health Institute and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, Gaston County slipped five spots in a statewide ranking of county health outcomes, from seventy-sixth to eighty-first out of 100 counties. Health outcomes are the quantification of illness and early death in a community. However, in a ranking of health factors, which measures the infrastructure and resources necessary for communities to be healthy, Gaston climbed four spots, from sixty-fifth to sixty-first. The health department is leading a team of agencies trying to come up with new ways to fight obesity in the county; Girls on the Run is a character building program that tries to teach kids about fitness early in life. Kathleen Boyce, the director of the program for Gaston County says she was not surprised by the county health rankings.
Skilled, LIterate & Fluent in the Digital World
I have been intrigued with the relationship of being skilled, literate and fluent in the Digital World for a while. We are focusing at school to look through the lens of fluency using technology as tools (e.g. using the iPad as the device and apps as the tool to achieve fluency), not as the end. I am wondering if the word “fluency” in the digital world, sparks the same thoughts or activates the background definition in other educators? Workflow is defined by Wikipedia as: The sequence of industrial, administrative, or other processes through which a piece of work passes from initiation to completion. The word “workflow” c-o-u-l-d work, but still does not sound right. fluency- workflow? Looking back at my train of thought, I started by looking at the flow between the skills needed to become literate in order to move on to become fluent. Then I moved along the lines of remembering what it felt like to NOT be fluent in a language. Like this: Like Loading...
