SCIENCE TEACHERS: WATCH THIS VIDEO! This is a great video that explains what students gain from watching videos dealing with science concepts. Watch this and use the information to choose great videos. Or add components to the videos you already watch to help make sure your students will learn.

Aquest vídeo et pot sorprendre amb el que els estudiants aprenen (o no aprèn) quan miran vídeos. Si eres mestre, si estàs creant vídeos per a estudiants o tal vegada utilitzes els d'altres, agafeu temps per mirar aixo.

Really states clearly and understandably so many of the benefits of speaking a second language - how much more does the culture of Hebrew bring into the mix?

This blog hits the nail on the head...reasearch papers must be inquiry based. In order to be college and career ready students must know how to draw inferences and make conclusions using evidence to back up their argument. They must also know how to identify credible sources. Using this inquiry driven research approach teaches them "how to fish", which is a lifelong survival skill students will need To function in today's society.m

Knowing 9th grade year is so pivotal and important and getting 9th graders to know it are two different things. Attendance, behavior, and grades. Attendance in first 30 days.

I plan to share this at the School Accountability meeting I am chairing next week. We have a standing agenda item - the middle school student. This is a great resource and in a great format to start conversations at school and home.

Re-framing the stages of research to help students manage the volume of information on databases and the internet. PLAN – Identify what the problem is and the questions that you are going to ask. STRATEGIZE – The route that you are going to take to search the web for information about your questions. EVALUATE – The sources of data that you are using for credibility, accuracy and currentness. TRIANGULATE – Compare your sources of data against one other.

B Possibly not just for teachers, but if it works so well then maybe the authors might need to think again, 'brevity the soul of wit'

This looks surprisingly effective (in my test of one article) ... and could be a useful first order tool for scanning large amounts of work. Students might learn to summarise/paraphrase by looking carefully at how the results relate to the original text (if they can resist just cutting and pasting the new words).

I love these kinds of advances. For those of us who know of people who've struggled with language learning challenges this is a great discovery. Language leaning problems create way too many other personal and social problems for children who then grow to be adults with problems unless they are diagnosed and helped. Way to go Smithsonian researchers!

In experience creativity seems to be volitional not physiological, now there is some science to counteract this socially accepted point of view.

Sorry again for the delay.thankx for your comments. I add that it seems coherent to agree with both of you Kathy and Louise , inclueing the possibility to care about the individual self-consciousness and empathy as a specific human condition to be eternally unsatisfied WITHOUT SPIRITUALITY?....IT'S BEYOND! i guess
