Dog Day Gems: Fingertip Knowledge, New Millennial,
and Art & Technology Resources for Summer PD
Illustration and Storyboarding to promote literacy learning,
"pinging" your blog, and using technology to ferret out those dead links in school websites.
This
week Mark and Kathy find themselves in a productive, late august, dog
day brain space - a place somewhere between hunkering down to real work
and sitting on the porch spitting watermelon seeds. With one foot still
firmly planted in summer vacation and the other in thoughts about the
coming school year, they take one last dip in the pool, kicking up
heady reflections on Ed Tech and sharing some their favorite, easiest
to use, and most significant, free resources. Catch the mood while it
lasts. Next stop will be a back-to-school rally of renewed energy and
new (school) year's resolutions. Items covered this week include:

MINING THE GAP
Mining the Gap: iTunes University (PFT vindicated), Learning Through Listening,
Grad Casts, Robots & Scratch, Tech Update on VISTA, Digital Divide
(articles),
Brain and a Book
This week Kathy and Mark continue probing the
teaching, learning, achievement, and Instructional Technology gaps
that block the highway to 21st Century learning. Sifting instructional
gems from mountains of "edu-junk", they observe
student robots hauling nuggets of learning to the surface, watch a fellow
traveler just beginning to"Scratch" the surface
as he excavates a well worn book for old/new tech news, and applaud accomplished
diggers busy mining deep veins
of ore for meaning.

- Teacher Prep School Reports by Arthur Levine
Report slams teacher-education programs
Education schools have 'not kept pace with changing ... technology,' group says
From eSchool News staff and wire service reports
Despite some examples of success, the majority of today's teacher-education programs are engaged in a "pursuit of irrelevance," having failed to keep pace with substantial changes in technology, student demographics, and global competition, according to a new report from the non-partisan Education Schools Project. The American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education said it welcomed the report and agreed with some, though not all, of its recommendations.
