15 no-prep games with just little scraps of paper One of the most flexible and useful resources in the classroom are bits of scrap paper. One thing that has really developed in my teaching over the years is my ability to react flexibly to things that happen in class, such as students knowing more or less about the language point than I expected, having wrong information about the class, students arriving late, or energy levels not being what I expected. One vital part of developing that ability to respond rather than just stick to the lesson plan has been to find and develop games that can be can be added to almost any class as and when needed. Most of these games use things that are already in the classroom or at least the school, such as the students’ fingers and textbooks- perfect for improvising and for the minimal resource situations I have often taught in. Games where you tell them exactly what to write 1. Give out two pieces of paper per student and ask them to write the two categories you will be looking at on them, e.g. 2. 3.

33 Digital Tools for Advancing Formative Assessment in the Classroom I came across a great blog post the other day – Formative Assessments Are Easier Than You Think – that told the firsthand account of a teacher, Steven Anderson, who implemented formative assessment in his classroom. He used a sticky-note version of an exit ticket to elicit evidence of student learning and in his words, “what a difference that made.” Formative assessment is ‘easier than you think’ and with all the digital tools and apps now available for mobile devices it’s even easier. We’ve shared some digital tools before and with the five tools that Steven shared combined with our earlier suggestions there are now 33 digital tools that we’ve uncovered that are free or inexpensive and help teachers implement formative assessment in their classrooms. Here they are: A few of Steven’s discoveries: Lino – A virtual corkboard of sticky-notes so students can provide questions or comments on their learning. Poll Everywhere – Teachers can create a feedback poll or ask questions. Pick Me!

La Photographie comme langage Depuis 1968, date de la publication du premier dossier, Photolangage est devenu un mot tellement courant du vocabulaire des formateurs, qu'il a pris un sens générique. Destiné à l'origine à des publics adolescents, pour qui la prise de parole n'est pas nécessairement chose aisée, Photolangage a vite montré quelles ressources il recelait aussi pour les publics d'adultes. De là son succès en France, notamment dans les actions de formation continue ; succès qui s'est particulièrement accru quand la Loi de 1971 a étendu l'Education Permanente à l'ensemble des populations de salariés. Photolangage fait maintenant partie de dispositifs éducatifs qui n'intéressent pas seulement la vie associative, mais encore les milieux professionnels des entreprises ou des administrations. Il s'agit donc d'une démarche qui a fait l'objet de nombreuses utilisations dans des conditions très différentes et dans des cultures très diversifiées. C'est donc à tous ces collègues ou confrères que s'adresse ce site.

What Is Your Learning Style? What Is Your Learning Style? This quiz asks 24 questions and will take less than five minutes to complete. Try not to think too hard -- just go with your first thought when describing your daily activities and interests. By the end, you may have some new insights into your learning preferences. Editor's Note (2013): There is no scientific evidence, as of yet, that shows that people have specific, fixed learning styles or discrete intelligences, nor that students benefit when teachers target instruction to a specific learning style or intelligence. Every Teacher’s Guide to Assessment It’s not a stretch to say that assessment is a hot button issue in education; however, you’d be hard pressed to find an educator who doesn’t see the value in measuring student progress. Assessments themselves have been vilified, when, in fact, it’s why assessments are given and how the data is used that is really the issue. The Glossary of Education Reform gives this great overview of what high-stakes testing is and how it impacts students, teachers, and schools. Basically, high-stakes testing has consequences for the test-takers and givers—sometimes in the form of a high school diploma, grade advancement, and even teachers’ salaries. But not all assessment is high-stakes, and when done thoughtfully, the right assessment can provide extremely useful information for all stakeholders—students, teachers, parents, schools, and policy-makers Let’s take a look at what assessment is, why it’s important, and how it can be delivered in the classroom in a useful manner. What is assessment? Scoring

Test d'hypothèse Un article de Wikipédia, l'encyclopédie libre. Des informations de cet article ou section devraient être mieux reliées aux sources mentionnées dans la bibliographie, sources ou liens externes. (14 novembre 2011). Améliorez sa vérifiabilité en les associant par des références. En statistiques, un test d'hypothèse est une démarche consistant à évaluer une hypothèse statistique en fonction d'un jeu de données (échantillon). Par exemple, ayant observé un certain nombre de tirages « pile ou face » produit par une pièce, on peut se demander si celle-ci est biaisée (c'est-à-dire possède une probabilité différente de 1/2 de tomber sur une face donnée). Dans cette situation, l'approche par test d'hypothèse consiste à supposer que la pièce est non biaisée (hypothèse nulle), et à calculer la probabilité d'observer des tirages au moins aussi extrêmes que celui effectivement observé (grâce à une loi binomiale).
