| GingerLewman | says | Session starts at 11am CDT, (approx 1 hr). Plunked butt in seat early, watching set up. |
| metaweb | I'll be checking in, working on annual plans for next year... thanks |
| KarinB | asks | Crazy that you have to get there an hour before presentations start! Are the rooms too small for the demand? |
| tszanto352 | says | in Marzano and Web 2.0 an hour early too - crashed another meeting to get a seat early. Room is packed now. with 1/2 an hour to go to start |
| GingerLewman | We're maybe 1/3 full w 25 minutes to go. Maybe people are just "tool, tool, tool" and don't think of real world application or engagement. |
| GingerLewman | says | keelerthoughts.blogspot.com |
| GingerLewman | uh oh. She just gave paper handouts. uhhh... |
| GingerLewman | watching little student-created (apparently) video called "the mixed up class" |
| GingerLewman | kids are wishing they could __ like a ___ (hop like a frog, etc) |
| GingerLewman | 30% transiency, and 100% Free/Reduced lunch. Elem kids doing the same type of thing as prof at UNLV with collegians. |
| GingerLewman | PBL is technique where students learn content while constructing an artifact. |
| GingerLewman | End product is the "extra." Focus is on learning the content. Artifact driven, content focused, tech infused, collaborative, |
| GingerLewman | Multi disciplinary, long-term, student centered |
| GingerLewman | 21st Cent Skills: core subjects/core content, 21st cent context/tools, learning skills. |
| GingerLewman | NETS-S: research, creativity, innovation, communication, collab, critical thinking, prob solving, decision making, |
| GingerLewman | digital citizenship, operations/concepts. Those words were the key concepts from an all-text slide. |
| GingerLewman | PBL unit needs to be long-term (week or months). Must be student-centered |

| GingerLewman | seeing 1st-4th grade kids sing and act out song of gravity to tune of Jingle Bells. They didn't write the lyrics though. |

| GingerLewman | Listening Civil War nurse mock diary. with music and war sounds in background. |
| GingerLewman | Civil War metaphors: 5th grader pretends to be civil war button. |
| GingerLewman | lady next to me talking loudly to guy 2 ppl away. Wondering if she could just chat him on...oh. no. of course she doesn't have computer. |
| GingerLewman | another project: teacher posts problem on her blog--math or vocab problem--and has kids solve it at nite. |
