I teach HS classes but treat my students more like freshmen college students because I'm trying to prepare them for that next step. Also, to be honest I choose this route because it is less work for me and this style usually works because the majority of my students are responsible and self-motivated. Although, what about that small minority group that needs someone to check up on them in detail?Projects are the biggest weight and work load in my classes and I usually give them at least a few weeks to work on them but what about that minority group that still does not know how to manage their time and allocate attention to their projects? I prefer a self accountability approach to help these student learn to be responsible. To help with accountability, I have my students setup and use Posterous pages.
Internal web development in schools are more essential than ever. With web 2.0 tools, social networks, and blog developments, schools can improve student learning and present it on display for the world to see. After creating an school athletics page, I would like to take on a project of creating a student learning website.
