6 Strategies for Smart Board Almost every teacher who has a smart board or interactive white board (IWB) in the classroom feels that the board has changed his teaching and student learning. Teachers found that this technological tool changes how students gain knowledge of material they are learning. Students are more focused, involved, and participate more when smart boards are being used. The primary advantage of smart boards or IWBs is their ability to integrate Web 2.0 tools and computer-based programs into any lesson. With these boards, teachers can present information via power point presentation with built in links to websites, videos, and podcasts in a lesson. Teachers can adjust their presentation on the fly to allow teachable moments or bring in additional supporting material, such as visual arts to support a lesson. Smart boards or IWBs appeal to visual and kinesthetic learners because of their interactive presentations. Smart Interactivity Tool Kit Double Tap Hide the Answer Use Pull Tabs Use Befuddlir
Symposium Magazine | Where Academia Meets Public Life Locust St. Le latin sur Twitter, langue bien vivante Oui, les réseaux sociaux ont aussi des vertus pédagogiques. Certains enseignants les utilisent avec profit dans leur classe. Après Jean-Roch Masson qui fait tweeter ses CP, Parents 3.0 a eu envie d’interviewer Delphine Regnard, professeur de lettres, de latin et de grec en lycée, qui utilise les blogs et Twitter avec ses élèves. Avec sa vision des choses et son utilisation du numérique, les langues dites mortes s’épanouissent en ligne. Entretien. Depuis quand et de quelle manière utilisez-vous les Tice (Technologies de l’information et de la communication pour l’enseignement) en classe, et en particulier les réseaux sociaux ? J’utilise les Tice depuis plus d’une dizaine d’années, car elles ont très vite montré leur utilité pour la classe. L’utilisation des réseaux sociaux est toute récente : j’ai d’abord créé des blogs pour mes classes (depuis 4 ans) sans forcément faire y participer les élèves. Après une première année d’utilisation, quel bilan tirez-vous de cet usage ? Ses blogs Lexique
National Affairs Long Views » Blog Archive » World’s Largest Audio-Visual Archive Long Now member John La Grou files this report: Will the music of Charlie Parker and Ella Fitzgerald be heard 100 generations from now? A major gift from David Packard has greatly increased the long odds on that. David’s $150M bequeath, the largest private gift ever to the U.S. legislative branch, launched the just-opened National Audio-Visual Conservation Center (NAVCC) of the National Library of Congress – the world’s largest and most comprehensive collection of films, television programs, radio broadcasts, sound recordings, and media collateral. With stunning architecture both inside and out, the NAVCC becomes the world’s most advanced A/V archiving and restoration facility – Alexandria for the information era. The new facility atop Mount Pony VA is built into a converted cold-war era bunker previously used to store billions of paper dollars for distribution after a national emergency. A photo set from my visit to the NAVCC facility is here.

SomaFM: Listener-Supported, Commercial-Free Internet Radio The Forgotten Twentieth-Century - Jan-Werner Mueller Exit from comment view mode. Click to hide this space BERLIN – It has been 20 years since the dissolution of the Soviet Union, which for many historians marked the real end of the “short twentieth century” – a century that, beginning in 1914, was characterized by protracted ideological conflicts among communism, fascism, and liberal democracy, until the latter seemed to have emerged fully victorious. But something strange happened on the way to the End of History: we seem desperate to learn from the recent past, but are very unsure about what the lessons are. Clearly, all history is contemporary history, and what Europeans, in particular, need to learn today from the twentieth century concerns the power of ideological extremes in dark times – and the peculiar nature of European democracy as it was constructed after World War II. Nevertheless, much more than most of us would care to admit, we remain enmeshed in the concepts and categories of the twentieth century’s ideological wars.
