Interesting perspective on grading. February 26, 2015. I wanted to share this resource one of my professors passed on to me- a fellow blog, written by a physics teacher. This particular post is a description of her (pretty intriguing) grading system. If I had to sum it up in a few words, it would be…standards-based grading to demonstrate mastery through exams.

The roles of a science teacher. February 13, 2015. February 13, 2015. Is the pursuit of truth, and the truth has many forms. There are forms of the truth that society at large does not formally recognize as aspects of science (yet), including: art, literature, poetry, music, sculpture etc. These may be forms of truth that we are not ready to accept as aspects of science. We don’t. 2 thoughts on “ The roles of a science teacher. February 19, 2015 at 9:50 pm. Liked by 1 person. March 21, 2015 at 6:21 am.

March 8, 2015. This is yet another source from my placement last semester at Willard MS. The Hour of Code is an hour of introduction to computer science to show students that anybody can learn coding. I really enjoyed this because the idea of “logic” can be explored when students learn to code. Below are six websites provided by my CT. The * denotes websites I have some familiarity and used:.

Our survey surveyed people’s opinions on different types of questions. In particular, we addressed multiple choice, free response, Likert, and ranking questions. As you can see in the above graph, most people did not find multiple choice questions effective at assessing student knowledge. March 12, 2015 at 9:26 pm. Reblogged this on Teaching Machine.

9 truths that computer programmers know that most people don’t. April 2, 2015. I came across this blog from a computer programmer recently and it seemed very relevant to some of the topics that I’ve been thinking about for this class:. There’s obvious connections to Ben’s previous presentations and lessons. It would be great to hear Ben’s opinion about these “truths”. 8221; moment, then immediately jump on the computer start coding. Video Instructions for Counting Craters on the Moon Using Google Earth.
