7- tell stories about learning
Alexander Fryer
January 2012
http://learningsigns.speedofcreativity.org/2011/08/15/the-fire/
The Fire
There was a fire ban that yearBut the carless campers left
Leaving smoldering remains behindThe fire that ate the forest
Wind whispered wordlessly in the treesThe fire was given new lifeLike a new small heartbeatThe fire that ate the forest
...continued...
The fire lit the dry grassIt was gathering in strength
Like a lion preparing to strikeThe fire that ate the forest
The fire now reached the treesIt was a wild beast let free
Grey smoke billowed up to the skyThe fire that ate the forest

a proliferation of mobile computing devices
the menu for demonstrating
understanding & masteryin your classroom
has exploded
www.flickr.com/photos/familymwr/5322734002 www.flickr.com/photos/torres21/6048960035
...when assigning a project, teachers look for mastery of content and allow students to take ownership of how they present that content. A teacher may ask students to demonstrate their knowledge of photosynthesis, but rather than give them a specific means of doing so, will allow the students to use any available resources to do so. This not only gets the students innovating more as they navigate through this task, but more importantly makes each student’s experience unique and gives them ownership over the product they produce. Some students may make posters, some a voicethread, some a powerpoint or prezi, but this should be no problem for the educator as they are assessing on mastery learning objectives and not actual means of presenting them.
