  1. Mooresville High in NC. Great Senior Project program! If only more HS's had the gumption to expect more from their kids than AP test scores!
  2. Great day of planning with co-hosts of 'How to better leverage Project Foundry conference' Signup through Friday. http://tinyurl.com/mr98vw
  3. Summerfest '09 with the Schabel crew http://yfrog.com/17syaj
  4. #necc09 I wonder how many folks have the tenacity to setup & support the practice of what Lehman suggests? I hope a lot more than I suspect.
  5. #necc09 Lehman: enlightening me on designing a unit with traditional teachers serves as a comfy way to get them to see possibilites w/ PBL
  6. #necc09 if you give a test at the end of the unit, you are not a pbl teacher. Please stop faking it, you're only fooling yourself!
  7. #necc09 Lehman: Should kids invest their time figuring out teacher style or figure out solutions for real problems.
  8. #necc09 Lehman: 'Tools don't teach, but they change the way we teach.'
  9. #necc09 Lehman: 'We now have the tools for Dewey's vision.'
  10. #necc09 Lehmann: 'Make kids more metacognitive' Amen!'
  11. #necc09 Lehman: ''What if school was real life? What if the students day was more integrated?' great questions!
  12. #necc09 Lehman: Student-centered, teacher-mentoring should be key. Can you do this with traditional structures?
  13. #necc09 Hope Chris Lehman's wiki references http://www.projectfoundry.org
  14. #necc09 Is the reason why there are not more student portfolios the fear of access or the lack of accommodating practice? I say the latter.
  15. #necc09 Student Portfolios are more meaningful when students have more than just piles of worksheets and quizzes. projectfoundry.org
  16. #necc09 Good to see more projects happening in k12, but I get the feeling I'm seeing better horse & buggys rather than the car of the future
  17. #necc09 Good conversation w/ Nelinda about Tech4Learning tools and projectfoundry.org Check 'em out!
  18. #necc09 essential design element for student friendly apps... anticipate interruptability.
  19. #necc09 edutopia session 'More than higher order thinking skills... Higher living thinking skills'
  20. Edutopia session #necc09 'teachers dont need to know everything'... Get out of a student's way!
