Ask a Tech Teacher is Traveling

Ask a Tech Teacher

April 25th-30th. My wonderful sister is visiting from Marion, Indiana. She is uncomfortable flying, hasn’t been back here since my mother’s funeral. I can’t overstate how excited I am to see her. As a result, I won’t be around much the next week–a bit, but mostly, we’ll be talking, visiting, exploring, walking… See you-all in a week!

STEM Everyday Podcast

We live in a digital age which gives us many benefits. However, many kids have lost a connection to working with their hands. When kids create, they take pride in what they’ve made, break down complex ideas, collaborate with others, and learn skills that can save or earn them money. Mike Schloff created Maplewoodshop in 2016 to help all children develop life skills through woodworking in any classroom.

Can Brain Science Actually Help Make Your Training & Teaching Stick?

Speaker: Andrew Cohen, Founder & CEO of Brainscape

The instructor’s PPT slides are brilliant. You’ve splurged on the expensive interactive courseware. Student engagement is stellar. So… why are half of your students still forgetting everything they learned in just a matter of weeks? It's likely a matter of cognitive science! With so much material to "teach" these days, we often forget to incorporate key proven principles into our curricula — namely active recall, metacognition, spaced repetition, and interleaving practice.

AP Physics C in April - don't worry about math!

Jacobs Physics

I'm working on the final set of test corrections with my Physics C - mechanics independent study student. This person did well on the test - earned a 4 on a typical AP scale. But that's only 50-65% of the available points, so there are plenty of items to correct. This student had AP Physics 1 with me two years ago. He is in AP Calculus BC. In the first part of the year, I had him focus on the mathematics that overlay the concepts he learned in Physics 1.

Easy 4th Grade Science Test Prep with Task Cards

Love Learning STEM

Need 4th grade science test prep activities? Science is becoming more and more rigorous for our elementary students over the past few years. They are expected to learn all of the complex academic vocabulary, perform hands-on labs and stem challenges, and be able to connect ideas to one another. Anytime I explain to one of my mom friends what type of work I do, they get so shocked at how much the students are learning at such young ages.
