Problem-free University Transfer to Continue Your Study Uninterruptedly

Sometimes, the more you study in the same university or college, the more fed up you get. Seeing the same faces and experiencing the same environment every day. Eventually, it just gets into you. Otherwise, you might already have an aim since high school to enter whichever university you want. Then you work towards your goal. Nevertheless, University Transfer is nothing like restarting the game of life.



Apart from all the fuss of getting your visa done, applying for a new passport,… Continue

Screen Recording in Computer Teaching and Training

In the production of multi-media courseware presentation, we often need to capture the computer screen actions of operating the application, such as tracking the movement of the mouse and the keystrokes from the keyboard, and so on. That is to make a multimedia animation presentation document from your onscreen activity. And they can be used for software training and self-learning. The research shows that screen recording applied to teaching and training receives a good… Continue

What will you do differently with students next year?

After attending NECC 09 in Washington D.C. I determined to consider my next year’s teaching. In the process, I realized there were some changes I wished to make in how I work with my students. Perhaps the most important of my changes is a desire to allow students to choose the most appropriate tool to use when doing an assignment. As I thought about it, I realized I wanted to see what others might consider important as well. I posted the following on Twitter:

Reflection on Learning Process and Integration of Technology

Taking this class online was quite a challenge for me but I survived. Logging on to the course was difficult for me at first. There were a few times I almost threw my lap top out. I'm glad I took the class though I learned a lot about digital camera, camcorder and other modern technologies that go with them to make videos. My lap top is my best friend now, it help me a lot through this class. I never bother with lap top before because I know what it takes to get on and clicking on all sorts of… Continue

Teaching Abroad

I have finished student teaching as well as a semester of substitute teaching. Now I am off to teach in Uganda for the year! Chemistry will always be my passion, but understanding that more subjects may be needed in Africa is fine by me. I am looking forward to teaching secondary school in an aids orphanage for a few months, then after a school holiday move up north around Gulu. Any help will be appreciated as I will have little to none internet and curriculum provided. Here goes all of my… Continue

" Providing Choices": A Reflective Teacher 6

As teachers, we provide the tools necessary to allow our students choices during their lives. One of our tasks is to help our students remove the limits that self-doubt promotes. We must not produce one-dimensional twits, that merle parrot-back the information we as teachers present. That is not teaching; that is presenting and it has no business in an effective teacher's classroom. There is no gain in this monologue. No teacher should feel remotely successful if that is the end result of their… Continue

Thoughts on Innovation Systems

In Complexity: A Guided Tour, Melanie Mitchell wrote about a series of questions that were being circulated among complexity scientists. I liked the questions very much and thought that they also applied to work on innovation systems. So, I’ve modified them for that application:



1. Why did you begin working with innovation systems?

2. How would you define an… Continue

What kind of Neanderthal schooling is being provided by you Philistines?

School budgets need to be cut! But you better not shortchange MY child's education. This is the schizophrenic mantra being shouted by policy-making parents today.



On one hand, when they put on their bean counter hats, they see the excess, the fluff, the areas which can "justifiably" be scaled back. On the other hand, when they wear the hat of a being a parent and they look at the education that their own flesh and blood are getting in our schools, suddenly it's a whole… Continue

A Reflective Classroom Teacher 5

Teaching is so much more than an occupation. It cannot be defined in the traditional sense. How does one describe what teachers accomplish in thousands of classrooms each day. To say that our work is just teaching is too simplistic and lacks the depth and passion needed to describe this service, that we as teachers, perform each day. That is what it is, make no mistake about it, we as teachers offer a service of the highest order. To be an effective teacher, one must invest so much more than… Continue

Reflective Classroom Teacher 4

There is absolutely no grace in self-deception. It stymies our growth as a person and suffocates the intellectual process. We cannot lie to ourselves and be effective at anything. Much too often, we prefer to live in a pretend world of contentment. We seem to be able to accept the pain of the lie much better than the pain of reality. We fear that any change in our lives might produce even greater unhappiness, so we insulate our feelings with self-deceit and produce self-loathing and resentment… Continue

Summer *WRITING* List

I'm borrowing an idea from Scott Filkins as posted on the NCTE blog site. He writes,



"Every school year, I amass an impressive pile of books for my own summer reading... Always more than I can realistically read in a single season, this collection represents the mythic promise of never-ending summer, abundant with time to relax and recharge.



As I look back on my…

Why We Need to Teach Sex Ed in Our Schools

For those who wonder why we need Sex Ed taught in our schools, I offer this story, the tale of the teens who mistook a woman's lovemaking cries for assault and promptly beat the crap out of the man with whom she was amorously copulating.



But the question arises as to which school personnel are qualified to handle such a delicate, senstive class. Good thing we have teachers such… Continue

At the Core

(drafted recently for a faculty inservice day called This I Believe)



I believe that the most important thing any teacher can do, ever, with no exception, is to learn. I believe it so strongly I want to say it twice, because I recently learned what an effective form of emphasis repetition can be. Are you with me? The most important job of any teacher is to learn. And I believe everyone at some point in their life, or in their day, is a teacher. Don’t you want your doctor, your… Continue

Confessions of an Emoticon User

I first started writing this a while ago and actually wasn't planning on posting it here, thinking not many would empathize, but then I saw a great comment by Grocheio that was pointed out by Ira Socol, so I guess I'm not alone! Here I go...



Do you ever use emoticons? In case you're not familiar with the… Continue
