Seven Online Classrooms Teachers Can Use to Augment Their Own Guest writer Samantha Peters brings us an excellent selection of educational video resources. Information is abundant online. The problem is sorting out the useful stuff from the overwhelming amount of junk that exists on the World Wide Web. Educators are all too familiar with the unreliable nature of information found on the web, and most of us are familiar with having to debunk a student’s insistence that a particular fact was true because a nameless website told him so. But the high volume of untrustworthy knowledge should never overshadow the fact that the Internet contains countless sources of invaluable useful information our students can use to learn about the world and improve their own lives. When it comes to incorporating this knowledge directly into the classroom, educators need look no farther than the following online “classrooms” that are free to use and highly informative. The information is out there. About Kelly Walsh Print This Post
An Animated Introduction to the Feminist Philosophy of Simone de Beauvoir How influential are the writings of Simone de Beauvoir? So influential that even the rushed, by all accounts shoddy first English translation (executed by a zoologist not especially acquainted with philosophy, and only somewhat more so with the French language) of her book Le deuxième sexe became, in 1953, The Second Sex. Though not properly translated until 2009, it nevertheless provided the foundation for modern feminist thought in the West. But what, if we can ask this question surely at least a couple of "waves" of feminism later, did de Beauvoir, born 109 years ago today, actually think? She thought, as the Harry Shearer-narrated History of Ideas animation from the BBC and Open University above puts it, that "a woman isn’t born a woman, rather she becomes one," meaning that "there is no way women have to be, no given femininity, no ideal to which all women should conform." A bold declaration, especially at the time. Related Content:
Dozens of Tips & Techniques for Creating High Quality Engaging Screencasts The creation of instructional videos is one of the many technology-enabled capabilities that the 21st century teacher has at their disposal. Instructional videos can be a wonderfully engaging element in teaching. Video content is also usually a fundamental element of the flipped classroom (which regular readers of EmergingEdTech know we’re a big fan of). The low cost of good quality web cams and the availability of free or relatively inexpensive screencasting applications helps to make the development of video learning content easier than ever. Yet all the free or low cost tools in the world do not inevitably yield good quality results. There is an essential element of technique to be considered. With the above in mind, I’ve searched the web and selected ideas from a handful of good web resources and articles on the subject. From “Making Quality Flipped Class Videos” by Jasper Fox: From “Beginning to Flip you Classroom with Screencasting” on 21things4teachers.net: About Kelly Walsh

Most Common Mistakes in Screencasting Chronic Absenteeism: An Old Problem in Search of New Answers A recent report by the U.S. Department of Education (USED) identifies “chronic absenteeism” as a hidden educational crisis. [1] In 2013-14, roughly 14 percent of students nationwide were chronically absent—defined as missing 10 percent or more of school days, excused or unexcused, which in most states would correspond to about 18 days of school missed each year. [2] In some cities, that rate is considerably higher, with Detroit topping the list at 57.3 percent of students chronically absent. [3] Absenteeism is not a new concern, however. Educators and local officials were focused on this issue as early as the late 19th century—a quarter of the juveniles jailed at the Chicago House of Correction in 1898 were there for truancy. [4] From Tom Sawyer to Ferris Bueller, truancy has been a staple of popular culture in the U.S. The consequences of chronic absenteeism Chronic absenteeism is associated with a host of adverse academic outcomes.

Leonardo da Vinci's Visionary Notebooks Now Online: Browse 570 Digitized Pages Quick, what do you know about Leonardo da Vinci? He painted the Mona Lisa! He wrote his notes backwards! Okay, I’m sure you know a bit more than that, but unless you’re a Renaissance scholar, you’re certain to find yourself amazed and surprised at how much you didn’t know about the quintessential Renaissance man when you encounter a compilation of his notebooks—Codex Arundel—which has been digitized by the British Library and made available to the public. The notebook, writes Jonathan Jones at The Guardian, represents “the living record of a universal mind.” For hundreds of years, the huge, secretive collection of manuscripts remained mostly unseen by all but the most rarified of collectors. The digitized notebooks debuted in 2007 as a joint project of the British Library and Microsoft called “Turning the Pages 2.0,” an interactive feature that allows viewers to “turn” the pages of the notebooks with animations.

Screencasting Tips and Best Practices For the past three years, I have been doing custom-made video screencasts for private consulting clients. These are moving captures of the images on a PC screen with my own voice-over narrations about IT-related products (you can see the entire collection here). And lately, more vendors have stepped up their own efforts to produce their videos as a way to explain what their products do, or as Mike Lee has said, what they might eventually do. There is also a growing awareness that these screencasts can be used as way of product documentation and support. Let's talk about what tools you need, some best practices that I have gleaned, and some other places to learn more about this craft. Tool time Here are the tools that I use. PiratePad for collaborative editing. Camtasia Studio for video editing and screen recording. Some tips and best practices Okay, so you have your toolkit. Keep the video simple. What about overall length? It isn't about going viral. Want to learn more?
Blade Runner : peut-on «répliquer» l’humain? Pour la sortie en salles de «Blade Runner 2049», Sandra Laugier nous propose une plongée philosophique dans l’univers du film original de Ridley Scott, sorti en 1982. À l’heure de l’intelligence artificielle et de la robotisation, quels sont les critères qui nous permettent de distinguer un humain ? Blade Runner1 (1982), réalisé par Ridley Scott, est un tel film culte qu’on en oublie qu’il a été froidement reçu par le public à sa sortie et méprisé par la critique. On se réjouit que le film de Denis Villeneuve, Blade Runner 2049, ne soit ni un remake, ni même un sequel (la suite d’une œuvre) au sens banal, mais d’abord un hommage à un film qui a influencé le cinéma mondial et notre vision du monde. Mêlant nouveau film noir et effets spéciaux, Blade Runner a inventé l’esthétique de la science-fiction terrestre du XXe siècle. The Ladd Company/Shaw Brothers/COLL CHRISTOPHEL Descartes et Deckard Blade Runner a été le premier à exprimer au cinéma le scepticisme philosophique. Présences humaines
The Flipped Class: Myths vs. Reality Editor's Note: On the heels of our viral posts in over 100 countries about the flipped classroom earlier this year (links below), we asked Jon Bergmann if he could share some of the feedback he was receiving in light of the notable interest about this topic. The timing couldn't have been more perfect since he was about to leave for a conference about you-guessed-it, the flipped class. Here is Part 1 of our three part series The Daily Riff. The Flipped Class: What it is and What it is Not by Jon Bergmann, Jerry Overmyer and Brett Wilie There has been a lot of interest in the flipped classroom. The traditional definition of a flipped class is: The Flipped Classroom is NOT: A synonym for online videos. Originally published The Daily Riff July 2011 Jon Bergmann is one of the first teachers to flip his classroom and has recently co-authored a book on the the Flipped Class which is to be published by ISTE press. Jerry Overmyer has teaching experience in secondary and college mathematics.
