What types of organic compounds are contained in the foods we eat? Sometimes an old idea is still the best way to teach a concept. That is how I feel about this lab, " Testing Foods for Organic Compounds." I have been doing this lab for over 30 years, and I never tire of doing it. Granted, it is a bit messy and the observed results are sometimes a little subjective, but my students always love these two days in the lab.

The instructor’s PPT slides are brilliant. You’ve splurged on the expensive interactive courseware. Student engagement is stellar. So… why are half of your students still forgetting everything they learned in just a matter of weeks? It's likely a matter of cognitive science! With so much material to "teach" these days, we often forget to incorporate key proven principles into our curricula — namely active recall, metacognition, spaced repetition, and interleaving practice.

Providing authentic learning experiences to all learners should be the highest prior for all administrators, curriculum developers, and teachers. Authentic learning is learning designed to connect what students are taught in school to real-world issues, problems, and applications; learning experiences should mirror the complexities and ambiguities of real life.

By Lauren Anderson Nov 19, 2019, updated March 17, 2020. Dulce Martinez didn’t initially think coding was for her. A seventh-grade student at Roger Street Academy in Milwaukee, Martinez thought it seemed kind of boring. But after a two-week coding camp, she’s changed her mind. “I like it a lot more than I did when I first got into it,” she said. “I see myself doing this in the future because it’s really interesting and fun.”.

If you missed this article over at ReadiLearn , here are my thoughts about teaching technology in kindergarten: Why Kindergartners Must Learn Technology. When I started teaching technology almost twenty years ago, I taught K-8, three classes in each grade every week. I was buried under lesson plans, grades, and parent meetings. I remember suggesting to my principal that he ease my schedule by eliminating tech for kindergartners.

There are times when innovative educators use print documents such as when displaying posters, student work, or infographics on a wall or bulletin board. Another common reason for print is when information is handed out, mailed, or back packed home to families. Usually this material is not accessible to all people with disabilities or who speak languages other than English, but it doesn't have to be that way.

Artificial intelligence is here to stay. It’s having a profound impact on education, and that impact will almost certainly expand over time. Is this a positive direction for students and teachers, or is it a slippery slope away from engaged, thoughtful learning? Different stakeholders have very different points of view on this subject, and for good reason.
