Three New Resource Compilations Via FREE

+ New -- Early Childhood Education

...looks at two teaching practices found to be effective in center-based settings with 3- to 5-year-old children who are not yet in kindergarten: teaching phonological awareness and using interactive and dialogic reading. See videos of these practices in schools and classrooms. Learn about the research base behind these practices. Find tools and templates you can use. (Department of Education)

+ New -- How the United States Is Governed

...looks at national, state, and local governments in the U.S. Chapters focus on the federal government, state governments, local government, elections and the electoral process, nongovernmental organizations and institutions that influence public policy, and similarities and differences between the U.S. system of government and other forms of democratic government. (Department of State)

+ New -- Calculator-Controlled Robots

... a guide book for using calculator-controlled robots with students in Grades 6-9 over the course of one semester. Missions are built sequentially on the knowledge of previous activities. The first missions have step-by-step programming instructions; in later missions, students create their own programs. Students use math and science concepts to direct their robots through various challenges. (National Aeronautics and Space Administration)

Click to view the article Information overload: fact, fantasy or filter failure?
Wednesday, 23rd May 2012
