Presenter: Peter Skillen Title: Students Helping Students Learn Through Journal ZoneIf you like journals - you will love Journal Zone! This
online journaling environment integrates three common practices
of exemplary teaching - journal writing, collaboration, and
cognitive scaffolding. Journals help students to plan, monitor
and reflect during projects. However, students not only write in
their own journals. They help other students do better work by
reading and responding to their journals. Presenter: Peter Skillen Title: To Question IS the Answer: Learning, Technology and StandardsJust how powerful is the role of one's own question in
learning? Passion-the emotional force of a driving
question-raises's one's motivation, increases energy and focus,
carries one through uncertainty and difficulty, and heightens
one's own expectations. Use outliners, idea processors, and
collaborative communications software to teach and support
students to formulate and resolve 'driving questions'. |
