How the Common Core Standards Tackle Problem Solving When the word creativity is used, the left side of my head begins to hurt. Now why would that happen? Let's see, could be the years of exposure to right and left brain mumbo jumbo? If you want to see some interesting things about the brain, there is a course on iTunes U from the University of Arizona, called Visualizing Human Thought. The thread of literacy found in the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) suggests a way to get to the heart of problem solving. A problem solved must be compelling enough to need a solution. An Example My lawnmower quit working. How did I solve it? The problem needed to be solved, the grass was too high, the fix was dubious but doable, and the results were irrefutable. How do you get your students to solve problems?
Anti-Saloon League Museum | Westerville Public Library What was the Anti-Saloon League? From 1893 to 1933, the Anti-Saloon League was a major force in American politics. Influencing the United States through lobbying and the printed word, it turned a moral crusade against the manufacture, sale and consumption of alcohol into the Prohibition Amendment to the United States Constitution. Under the motto "The Saloon Must Go," the organization worked to unify public anti-alcohol sentiment, enforce existing temperance laws and enact further anti-alcohol legislation. At first, the League appealed to local churches to carry its message to the people. The League was able to promote the temperance cause by publishing thousands of fliers, pamphlets, songs, stories, cartoons, dramas, magazines and newspapers. How can I find more information? This website was created based on a large collection of Anti-Saloon League documents and artifacts, bequeathed to the Westerville Public Library.

Sarcasm « Grammarsaurus Rex What Alanis Morissette did with her song “Ironic” to confuse a generation of neon-fanny-pack-wearing, Legends of the Hidden Temple-watching, Surge-chugging, Third Eye Blind-listening, Topanga-crushing, Beanie Babies-hoarding, Duck Hunt gun-wielding ’90s kids, hipsters have done with their commitment to faux-irony to confuse a generation of … I don’t know, what defines us now? … people who miss living in the ’90s. What a mantra. … oh, really? [But dude, weren't Tamagotchis totally awesome?] Let me also say that I’m not really a fan of anti-hipster humor for this reason: it’s not funny or original. One very real problem hipsters have created, though, is a resurgence of a confusing use of the word “irony.” And hipsters, hear me: I do not ever want to re-visit Opposite Day. Opposite Day caused me my second true existential crisis at the age of eight. Let’s talk about irony. There are quite a few different types of irony: verbal irony, dramatic irony, socratic irony, historical irony, etc.
What is Historical Thinking? Jan 10 2011 We here at Teachinghistory.org use the term a lot and you have probably heard it bandied about lately. But what does it mean? In this first of a series of blogs about historical thinking, we identify resources that introduce and frame this complex set of processes. Instructional Frameworks We recommend starting with our seven-minute "What is Historical Thinking?"
