Why would I start educational blogging with my students ? what is its benefits on their overall learning ? These are two legitimate questions you need to ponder on before embarking on a blogging journey with your class. In fact asking critical questions should not only be limited to your tech practices with your students but should cover all your teaching practice. Through questions we discover our weak points to work on and through inquiry we unearth new inspiring fountains of knowledge.

Administrators often ask how to best utilize their staff meeting time to promote best instructional practices and improve professional development.
It has been said that once teachers start teaching, we become the most uneducated of professionals about our own profession, failing to research and implement the cutting-edge best practices that make the difference in student engagement and learning. We can’t use 20th century practices with our 21st century students.
In order to encourage and even demand curiosity, creativity, learning, sharing and growing in our students, we must model those traits within our own profession; a staff meeting is the perfect time to cultivate these skills within and among our colleagues.

This article i am going to talk about today is about teaching and education in the 21st century. First of all, I agree with the writer that 20th century practices cannot be used with 21st century students, because they are the one who will benefit from it and support the future, and this plan is only foolproof if the students comply.

Wikipedia describes Digital curation as ...the selection, preservation, maintenance, collection and archiving of digital assets. Digital curation establishes, maintains and adds value to repositories of digital data for present and future use. This is often accomplished by archivists, librarians, scientists, historians, and scholars. The term curation in the past commonly referred to museum and library professionals. It has since been applied to interaction with social media including compiling digital images, web links and movie files.
Curation as a teacher is vital. Curation as a administrator is vital. Curation as a leader is vital. Curation as a life-long learner is vital. Curation helps us interact with the resources available; it helps us categorize, organize, and share resources with others. In curating resources we learn, grow, and contribute to our professional and personal learning networks in a hugely beneficial capacity that is only outmatched by the reciprocity it produces if done using social media like Diigo, Twitter, blogs, etc. Via Tom D'Amico (@TDOttawa)

What I learned from this article is how a good coach on the field, can help a student's performance in the classroom. Strong and successful sports programs create atmospheres on campuses that help success in the classroom. Principles should take this into mind when hiring a coach. They can't just hire somebody with a good playbook but rather role models and well respected individuals that will create young men and women who challenge themselves outside of sports.
In this particular article, what I found most educational is when the author said "Coaching is an essential component of an effective professional development program. Coaching can build will, skill, knowledge, and capacity because it can go where no other professional development has gone before: into the intellect, behaviors, practices, beliefs, values, and feelings of an educator. " This is such a powerful statement. I have for years personally seen how coaching affects an individual. I had a football coach in high school that demanded the best from us not just on the field but in the classroom and as a person. This coach meant a lot to me, he was very knowledgeable, successful, and well respected that I treated his word like gospel. During the season I actually saw an increase in grades and personally happiness. Coaches can have a personal relationship with their players that no teacher, principle, or other faculty member can imitate. Sports is a powerful tool and when used correctly can change lives; not only of that individual but his peers too. I selected because the title really grabbed my attention. Often times we hear how sports can really help a student or employee in their respective environments so I thought it was really interesting to see an article on how teachers can also benefit from sports. A good sports program directly translate into a good academic program at an institution. This article gave me even more of an understanding on exactly how much sports affect all aspects of life. Sports go way beyond the playing field, they carry over into relationships and even occupations. Everything in life you do that isn't individual, needs teamwork. Whether that be wife and husband or employee and employer, sports have and continue to prove that teamwork gets things done the best. Sacrificing personal agendas to achieve greater goals is a must and sports have taught us this over the years.

The result was a dynamic sytem where relationships live at the core and the technology helps facilitate the more powerful shifts. This infographic does help illustrate some of the shifts.

I find that students should learn alot more about things that are relevant in the real world, In highnschool and middle school I learned alot of information that I will never again use in my life. For example; I have not used algebra since I learned it in middle school.My point is I havent used these things since I was young and it seems to be useless knowledge. I would have prefered to learn more about money and how to budget it.

For David Preston, the term “open source learning” -- a variation on inquiry learning or passion-based learning -- is about helping students choosetheir own learning path, an approach that already has some well-known champions among educators. The association’s purpose, he says, would be “inviting people to the policymaking table that don’t normally have a direct voice. And I’m not just talking about learners and tech-savvy teachers and administrators. I am also talking about neurologists, leaders in the Internet culture,” and people across other contemporary professions.

This appears to be a development on the ideas of project based learning, a way of tapping into childrens own interest and field of knowledge in order offer rich, authentic learning opportunities. Watching that spark of interest in children, when they are offered the opportunity to immerse themslves in something of sincere and personal interest, seems to alleviate many behaviour management issues that arise from a sense of boredom with the standard material offered to a class.

Internet has definitely marked a revolution in the way human knowledge is being generated, shared, communicated, and stored. The answer to almost any question is available within seconds, courtesy of the invention that has altered how we discover knowledge – the search engine. With this abundance of online information comes the question of credibility. Some critics argue that a tsunami of hogwash has already rendered the Web useless. I disagree. We are indeed inundated by online noise pollution, but the problem is soluble.
