With schools closed for in-person learning and many children being educated at home, parents are scrambling for quality alternatives that work in a home environment. One of our Ask a Tech Teacher contributors has some ideas you may not have thought of: How to Make Remote Learning Work For Your Children. Many parents are choosing to opt-out of traditional schooling, but the question of how to create a well-rounded curriculum or who to hire for this task is often the barrier that prevents at-home

Chris Lehmann, the amazing principal of Science Leadership Academy in Philadelphia, says “If you assign a project and get back 30 of the same thing, that’s not a project, that is a recipe.” Now recipes have their place for sure. They often make a good start. I see programming as a creative thing (art/craft/skill/science/what ever) and I want to see creativity from my students.

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.

If you are not on Twitter you may be missing a lot of good things. For example, the other day Kelly Lougheed ( @kellylougheed ) tweeted out a bunch of simple labs that only require user input and mathematical operations. I have copied them below because I want to be able to find them again later. I’ve used unit conversion for years but it gets old. Fahrenheit to Celsius, miles to kilometers, grams to tons, you get the idea.

Eric Iversen. Nice to (re-)meet you Nobody would call this new school year a return to normal. But it does mark a return to more widespread in-school learning than last year, at least insofar as local COVID infection rates will allow. As a result, students and teachers and administrators are all getting reacquainted with each other after an 18-month disruption to familiar school routines.

Labor Day is annually held on the first Monday of September (this year, September 6th). It was originally organized to celebrate various labor associations’ strengths of and contributions to the United States economy. It is largely a day of rest in modern times. Many people mark Labor Day as the end of the summer season and a last chance to make trips or hold outdoor events.

Equitable STEM and computer science opportunities are something that elementary educators have struggled to implement, myself included. We are so focused on our core content areas like math and language arts, that finding the time and energy to implement a computer science program (an area that I do not have expertise in) can seem daunting. BUT it does not have to be!

I don’t get to teach Media Computation 1 since I moved to the University of Michigan, so I haven’t done as much development on the curriculum and infrastructure as I might like if I were teaching it today. I did get a new version of JES (Jython Environment for Students) released in March 2020 ( blog post here ), but have rarely even started JES since then.

Can I be honest? Teaching macromolecules could very well be one of the most boring topics in Biology! Well… it was for me… until last year, when I decided to re-vamp my lesson plan to include more engaging activities. Today, on the blog, I am sharing some ideas for Teaching Macromolecules in Biology. Introduction. One of my most effective teaching strategies is to expose students to content BEFORE it’s taught.

Another week packed with fantastic student effort! This week Ms. Hernandez, Ms. Brown, Ms. Giron, Ms. Mallona, Ms. White, and Mr. Cruz's classes were in the lab. The K-2 settled into their Code.org courses while 3rd-5th were introduced to Scratch. All classes participated in this rotation's sun themed activities - making sun prints and a solar clock. 4th and 5th graders also visited Nasa Space Place to investigate the solar system and created images of their favorite planets for our mini reused

The Path to a New Paradigm. One might have thought it was already exciting enough for our Physics Project to be showing a path to a fundamental theory of physics and a fundamental description of how our physical universe works. But what I’ve increasingly been realizing is that actually it’s showing us something even bigger and deeper: a whole fundamentally new paradigm for making models and in general for doing theoretical science.
