Jen's Ed Psych Blog: November 2008
http://jenedpsych.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Jen's Ed Psych Blog. Wednesday, November 12, 2008. On Monday night we had three parents from the community come and talk to us. All of the parents agreed that a second language should be taught at a young age. One of the parents said that they took a second language when they were in second grade. They think that knowing that language helped them when they took another language later in high school. They agreed that the language should be started at the second or third grade level. He gave us some of the...

Jen's Ed Psych Blog: No Child Left Behind
http://jenedpsych.blogspot.com/2010/03/no-child-left-behind.html
Jen's Ed Psych Blog. Friday, March 5, 2010. No Child Left Behind. Today in lecture we talked about No Child Left Behind. We addressed some of the background information. I feel that this is a touchy subject to talk about. Not everyone has the same views. The general goal of NCLB. For everyone to be proficient, is good. The way that they are going about this goal is not the best. I feel that there is too much testing taking place. I have heard teachers say that because of NCLB. I agree with you. I als...

Jen's Ed Psych Blog: Chocolate Milk: better than no milk?
http://jenedpsych.blogspot.com/2010/04/chocolate-milk-better-than-no-milk.html
Jen's Ed Psych Blog. Tuesday, April 6, 2010. Chocolate Milk: better than no milk? Last week in class we talked about chocolate milk and the sugar content. Is all of this sugar really needed? We discussed what would happen if only white milk was served. Many thought that students would not drink it since it was plain. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Jen's Ed Psych Blog: Learning to Change-Changing to Learn

Jen's Ed Psych Blog. Sunday, February 28, 2010. Learning to Change-Changing to Learn. Http:/ www.youtube.com/watch? This is a great video! I think that setting up connections between teachers from different areas of the world could help improve teaching for everyone. Technology is such an important part of the world today, and schools need to catch up, like the video suggests. March 4, 2010 at 6:34 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Jen's Ed Psych Blog: International Students
http://jenedpsych.blogspot.com/2010/03/international-students.html
Jen's Ed Psych Blog. Friday, March 12, 2010. Today we had two international students come in and talk about their school experiences where they live and their experiences at Luther. It was really interesting how their school experiences compared to my experiences. We have had way different experiences but we all ended up at Luther. I think this is interesting how they were way more disciplined than I was but were are at the same place. Is all the discipline really necessary? No Child Left Behind.

Jen's Ed Psych Blog. Friday, March 19, 2010. This week we talked about citizenship and what it means to be a good citizen. According to Brighouse. A model citizen has three criteria. They will follow the law, political participation (voting), and political participation (dialogue). We got into groups to discuss if we agree with this criteria. We thought that there should be another one added. We thought that respect was another criteria to being a good citizen. Friday, March 12, 2010. Both students talke...

http://jenedpsych.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Jen's Ed Psych Blog. Wednesday, December 3, 2008. My study group and I read the book, The Freedom Writers Diary. I was a great book to read and I recommend it to others. Erin Gruwell was a very unique teacher and she had a big impact on the lives of her students. Click on the link above to watch the video we made about the book. Education Today and Tomorrow. Http:/ www.youtube.com/watch? Monday, December 1, 2008. I liked the movie and would recommend it to other students thinking about teaching.

Jen's Ed Psych Blog: September 2008
http://jenedpsych.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Jen's Ed Psych Blog. Saturday, September 27, 2008. The lecture on Monday night was helpful and confusing. We had a lot of information given to us at one time. It will take awhile for it all to make sense. The chalk and wire presentation that Erin gave was informative. I think that it will be nice to have our portfolios on-line. It will make it easier to show future employers. It will be nice not having to carry around a bunch of papers. Saturday, September 20, 2008. For Joe Biden 74% said he is prepared ...
