Teaching with"APP"-itude! □ - Blog #2 This is the SECRET to my success...Seriously, it has changed my WHOLE classroom. I download all my products from Teachers Pay Teachers on my iPad.

10 Teacher Resources For Lesson Planning Templates & Tools 10 Teacher Resources For Lesson Planning Templates & Tools by Mike Acedo It has been a long known fact that teachers have one of the hardest and most time-consuming jobs in the world. There is very little free time for teachers even outside of the classroom, leaving educators constantly on the lookout for useful ways to make their job more convenient and effective. Lesson plans can play a vital role in simplifying a teacher’s job, and also can ensure that classes are conducted in a seamless and efficient manner. However, a quality lesson requires time, commitment, and creativity to create. Thankfully, in addition to popular sites such as teacherspayteachers (which focus mainly on purchasing pre-made materials), there are a number of resources and pre-constructed lesson templates that teachers can utilize to help create organized, innovative, and effective lesson plans. 10 Teacher Resources For Lesson Planning Templates & Tools Learnboost Universal Design for Learning Lesson Builder

Opmaakprofielen Iedereen maakt ze wel eens: een rapport, een offerte, een handleiding, kortom: grote documenten, die hoge eisen stellen aan layout en overzichtelijkheid. Hoofdstuktitels moeten duidelijk onderscheiden kunnen worden van de gewone tekst, net als paragraaftitels. Worden de hoofdstuktitels in zo'n document in een groot lettertype (bijvoorbeeld 16 punten) en vetgedrukt gezet, dan kunnen paragraaftitels in een 14-punts lettergrootte en cursief worden weergegeven. Nu is het veel werk om stuk voor stuk aan alle titels dit soort opmaakkenmerken toe te kennen. Met de functie Opmaakprofielen van Microsoft® Word 97 en 2000 kan dat veel sneller. Wanneer u een opmaakprofiel toepast op geselecteerde tekst, worden alle bijbehorende opmaakkenmerken met één opdracht toegepast. In dit artikel leert u stap voor stap hoe opmaakprofielen worden toegepast, hoe u ze maakt en later kunt wijzigen. Wat is een opmaakprofiel?

7 Best USB Encryption Software for 2016 | Beebom When it comes to carrying digital data on the go, or even transferring files between computers, there’s hardly a storage medium more popular than USB flash drives. And why shouldn’t that be the case. After all, USB flash drives are pretty reliable, extremely convenient, and of course, portable. However, this portability also means that they can (and do, more often than not) easily get lost, or damaged. And that’s not a good thing, especially if you use them to store important and confidential information, which can land into the wrong hands. Fret not, as there are numerous encryption tools available out there, geared at securing USB flash drives (and the data stored on them). 1.

7 Game Changer EdTech Tools to Personalize Your Classroom By Stephanie Shaw I was immersed in the “digital conversion” almost 10 years ago and it was extremely overwhelming for me. I suddenly taught fourth grade to 30 students who all had a laptop. I felt like I had 72 subscriptions and passwords, but I wasn’t sure where to start. I needed technology to make my life easier, not more difficult! Even after many years, it is still easy to feel engulfed by the ever changing technology tools. Educreations: Simply put, this tool allows you to make a video and share it with a link. Personalized Learning Tip: I have a video for almost all of the skills I teach. Edpuzzle/Playposit: Similarly to Educreations, both of these sites allow the teacher to assign a video for their class to watch. Personalized Learning Tip: I use these tools to personalize learning in several ways. Kahoot/Quizizz: Both of these sites are amazing interactive games that add a competitive edge to your lesson. Google Forms: This is quickly becoming one of my favorite tools.
