the most important video might be this one...
What to do when students DON'T watch the assigned videos.
In the video Katie points out:
a) ask the students to do something to participate in the work that is presented the video. This includes writing definitions and examples in a notebook, taking notes in however form the students want to.
b) Students who take minimum notes and miss the main points of the lecture
Let the students collaborate with their peers
Lazy students can pick up much of the information from tehir peers.
Peer teaching works.

c) Let students choose when to watch the videos (and give them additional opportunities) Because it is a social experience, many students WANT to be part of the process. Katie tells about how some students will come to her and say, "I didn't watch the video last night. Can I come in during lunch or before school to watch the video?"
This works when you have computers in the classroom that are set up to allow students to watch the videos with headphones or earbuds.
Go ahead, sent this video to parents and students.

Joe's blog has a question: Do we REALLY need to put objectives on the board? Do you see objectives when you read a newspaper?
Let's celebrate the diversity of voices in education. Here's a post by Alfie Kahn
I heard about this post from a blogger named Joe
I like his post. Why not click and subscribe to Joe's blog?
Let's start the conversation with students by listening to their answers to these six questions

Let's use the words of Neil Postman from Teaching as a Subversive Activity and listen to our students.
(thank you, Oregon State, for posting the pdf)
See chapter 12: 3. Try listening to your students for a day or two. We do not mean reacting
to what they say. We mean listening.

Thanks to Dennis Yuzenas for recommending this book.
"Teachers don't earn enough...." Oh? let's see....
I've often wondered about the assumption that "teachers are not paid enough for the work they do."
We get to work with people who have college degrees
We get to work with people who have inquiring minds (often)
We get to work with people who
We get the psychic income (delayed by ten or twenty years) from having our clients tell us, "You changed my life." Wow.
We are usually in air-conditioned spaces.
We don't have to haul garbage.
We usually don't have to sweep or clean windows or lift heavy objects.
And in Florida, the typical teacher earns more than the median income. So... where is the inequity?

Oh, no...not again... another excellent and timely quote is exposed as a fabrication... Oh, I really wanted to believe that Einstein thought about fish and tree climbing....
We will do well to take time to look at the "investigation" about the source of the "Einstein quote."
