A couple of quick hitters for this PD week.
We have access to the Chronicle Herald online for
individual or class use.
The login is http://halifaxchronicle.can.newsmemory.com/nie.php
The username is: brownt@ccrsb.ca
Password: 123456
A demo/instructional video can be found by clicking on the white question
mark in the red box along the top of the page.
Another excellent site is Khan Academy. An extensive
collection of videos is available, broken down into individual skills for most
topics including Math, Chemistry, Biology, Physics, Economics & Computing.
Accounts may be set up to track usage, and/or to reward students with "badges"
for achieving various learning objectives.
Apps for Khan Academy are available for IOS and Android. Khan Academy is
very popular with those who are using the Flipped Classroom: a popular (fairly
new) technique used by many educators where students learn their content/skills
at home using videos, classroom time is then used to further discuss this
content rather than lecturing. Check it out here:
