<p>I am a first grade teacher and a graduate student working on a paper for a globalization class. With the addition of the Common Core standards, most states will be working toward students obtaining the same set of skills. As a teacher I find when a student moves into the classroom from a different district, because our curriculum maps do not match, I may have already covered a topic he/she has not yet been taught or vise-versa.

As a teacher I find when a student moves into the classroom from a different district, because our curriculum maps do not match, I may have already covered a topic he/she has not yet been taught or vise-versa. I'm wondering your thoughts on having a standard curriculum map to accompany the Common Core standards so that students moving from state to state and school to school would have an easier transition.</p> Any good Online Collaboration and Mind Mapping sites for my 5th Graders to use?tag:www.classroom20.com,2011-01-04:649749:Topic:5792982011-01-04T02:38:06.191ZIrishjedihttps://www.classroom20.com/profile/JonathanEddy
<p>I have found a few, but would like to get the opinions of the Classroom 2.0 educators. I liked PBWorks and Mindmeister. I also want sites in which I am the administrator and can create logins for my students. Thanks for any input.</p>

Does anyone know of a site that will map out your network on Twitter (the people you're following and the ones who are following you)? I keep connecting with people from around the country and world and I just think it'd be neat to see a visual representation of it.<br />
<br />
<b>EDIT</b>: It looks like I finally figured it out on my own! For those interested, check out <a href="http://www.mmmeeja.com/blog/social-networking/twitter-followers-map.html" target="_blank">the page where I found it</a>.

Announcing our Spring conference:<br />
Learning in a Participatory Culture<br />
<br />
At NML's May 2nd conference, we will share our new web-based learning environment, the Learning Library, and host a series of conversations and workshops about the integration and implementation of the new media literacies across disciplines. Workshops include "The Complexities of Copyright: Shepard Fairey v. the AP," "Mapping in Participatory Culture: Boundaries," "Using Wikipedia in the Classroom" and many others. Henry Jenkins' closing remarks will address the future of NML and participatory democracy.<br />
<br />
Panelists at this conference will include members of the NML team, educators who have been working with NML materials in the field, and educational researchers. The conference is designed to engage anyone with an interest in the future of education, especially high school teachers and after school coordinators. The format itself will be participatory - we hope that attendees will join the conversation, and leave the conference equipped with new ideas and strategies.<br />
<br />
Learning in a Participatory Culture will take place at MIT, Cambridge MA, from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm.<br />
Registration for this one-day conference is $35.00, breakfast and lunch included.<br />
<br />
Registration is now open. Please complete the <a href="http://www.acteva.com/booking.cfm?bevaid=180243">Online Registration</a> to pay.

I am looking for some ideas...I want to make up Learning Progression maps for each of the benchmarks for my state standards for planning purposes, working on adding in more formative assessments and utilizing more of the resources I have available by having one working document per benchmark.

I am looking for some ideas...I want to make up Learning Progression maps for each of the benchmarks for my state standards for planning purposes, working on adding in more formative assessments and utilizing more of the resources I have available by having one working document per benchmark. The idea I am working toward is something like what is attached.<br />
<br />
My dream map would be built in layers so that I could publish or show only the layers that I want for different purposes (like turn off the assessments to share with kids, etc) BUT, I would still have one working document where everything is in one place and easy to access and make changes to. A long time ago, I worked with some drafting programs that worked with different layers, and it was so easy! I am pretty sure it must exist and that someone in this network will be able to help me out!

We have created a free applicattion on line to allow students creating thematic maps of any country in the world on GoogleMaps<br />
<a href="http://www.up2maps.net">www.up2maps.net</a>.<br />
It has been launched this december. If any of you check it and think of something to improve it that would be nice.<br />
All we want is to create the best tool possible.<br />
Thank you

I work extensively in the area of curriculum reform and most particularly in curriculum mapping. Presently I am doing research on an upcoming book with ASCD on new directions for curriculum and would appreciate your thoughts on radical views- ("radical" in the mathematical sense of "root"). It seems to me that we to shed dated curriculum content, skills, and assessments with more timely choices in each discipline. We need to find meaningful interdisciplinary connections when possible and natural. Most importantly, the very structures of our schools..the schedules, grouping patterns, calendar, use of space need to be altered substantially. Our cybertools can provide new virtual directions as we are all seeing. Please send any of your reflections or recommendations.

I am interested to networking with teachers who are currently using or wanting to get into using GIS software such as ArcView or Arc Explorer.<br />
<br />
I am using ArcExplorer on Macs and ArcView on PC's (since it only is available for PC's).<br />
<br />
I am an advanced beginner, meaning I have ton quite a few tutorials, taught a few lessons, and created a couple of my own lessons.<br />
<br />
I would love to chat with anybody who has an interest or some experience. I want to make GIS friends.<br />

<br />
I'd actually prefer a no-activation code option (makes it a lot faster to set up)
