My third grade students discussed the state of local, national, and world affairs on a weekly basis. In addition to sharing their responses to articles they selected, I shared at least two passages from a recent article or editorial and perhaps play an informational video with background information before posing a controversial question for students to discuss. For at least thirty minutes, they debated timeless issues in the context of events happening right now -- free speech, the redistribution of wealth, and decisions made during wartime. They relied heavily on structures I developed with them, including norms, sentence frames, success criteria, and a rubric as well as a speakers' list, timer, and note-taking system. These classroom meetings not only helped students improve their speaking and listening but also provided them with the opportunity to think about issues of real importance, thereby changing the way they viewed themselves.
Chapter 8 - The Lead - JNL-1102 - Professor Linda Austin - National Managemen...Linda Austin
This presentation teaches how to distinguish between a direct and delayed lead, how to find the lead for a simple news story and how to write a good direct, summary lead. Professor Linda Austin created this presentation for her JNL-1102 students at the National Management College. Chapter 8: The Lead is from Reporting and Writing the News by Peter Eng and Jeff Hodson.
Here is a draft introductory paragraph for the topic of whether SPM marks the end of the world or a new beginning:
For many students in Malaysia, the words 'SPM examination' strike fear and anxiety in their hearts. The high-stakes national exam at the end of secondary school feels like the end of the world, with pass or fail determining their future path. However, SPM could also represent the start of new opportunities and adventures. While the exam process is undoubtedly stressful, SPM opens doors to further education and career choices. Rather than seeing SPM as an ending, it may be better viewed as the beginning of life's next exciting chapter. Over the following paragraphs, I will discuss both perspectives on whether SP
Splash Media was hired by ZTE to help promote their brand at San Diego Comic Con in 2016. They created a retro-themed social media campaign featuring forgotten comic book heroes to attract convention attendees. Splash Media also partnered with TVLine to sponsor their media room in exchange for celebrity interviews where attendees could try ZTE products. This exposure led to some of ZTE's most engaging social media posts, reaching over 53 million people on Facebook and Twitter. The campaign was a success in introducing ZTE to new fans and pop culture sponsorships.

Student-Led Conferences and 20% Time Projects for Elementary ClassroomsTrevor Mattea
For the past few years, I have invited my fourth grade students every fall to join me and their parents in a half-hour conference in which we discuss their strengths and areas for growth, set a goal for the year, and plan next steps for everyone involved. I quickly realized that while involving students in these kinds of conversations was a step in the right direction, it would not alone ensure that students made sufficient progress in building on their strengths, improving their areas for growth, and accomplishing their goals. I developed structures to support them at home and in school -- including follow-up conferences throughout the year and class time for goal-related work and presentations as well as shared note taking and audio recordings. I use similar structures to assess and discuss students' reading and writing. They provide individualized parent education and help students direct their own learning and experience success, while developing a growth mindset.
Google Classroom for Elementary ClassroomsTrevor Mattea
Everyday, my fourth grade students create, revise, and edit assignments and independent projects, provide feedback for me, and communicate with each other using Google Classroom. They can easily view due dates and grades and access resources and templates I share with them or even create their own and post them to a classroom message board. Google Classroom brings school to students, wherever they are and can give them greater control of the pace, place, time, and path of their learning.
Digital Photography for Elementary ClassroomsTrevor Mattea
Everyday, my fourth grade students document their experiences in the classroom and on the playground with an inexpensive, point-and-shoot digital camera to share them with an authentic audience. I also use a collection of free or inexpensive photo apps to create artwork my classroom.
Everyday, my fourth grade students create, revise, and edit assignments and independent projects with Google Drive. They can access all of their work anywhere and share it with anyone at any stage in the process. They write stories and paragraphs with their classmates, and they correspond with parent volunteers through letters and homework comments. I also use Google Drive to create resources for students, teachers, and parents that I share on my digital portfolio.
New Technology and Structures for Engaging ClassroomsTrevor Mattea
In this workshop, I provide a brief overview of several forms of classroom technology or other useful structures that can be used again and again to maximize student learning and parent involvement. I pull materials from several of my other presentations to highlight everything from class meetings and critique to digital portfolios and Google Drive. I ask participants to take a one-question survey via Google Forms to determine their priorities and spend the remainder of the time discussing the three most popular items and showing participants how to use them.
Digital Portfolios for Elementary ClassroomsTrevor Mattea
My fourth grade students curate selections of their work on digital portfolios created using Google Sites to share them with an authentic audience and reflect on their growth throughout the year. I have also created my own digital portfolio using Weebly to share resources from my classroom and connect with my personal learning network.

The document provides an overview of editorial writing, including its definition, purpose, types, and steps in writing one. An editorial is an opinion piece in a newspaper that comments on current issues. There are different types, such as informative, interpretive/critical, praising, entertaining, and those for special occasions. The steps include choosing a timely topic, researching it, outlining arguments, writing an introduction, body, and conclusion, and rewriting/editing. The goal is to present facts to support a position on an issue in a formal yet engaging manner.
This document summarizes a panel discussion about navigating career and personal life challenges. The panelists shared their personal stories of dealing with work-life balance issues, career stress, major life changes, depression, illness and death. They discussed themes of reaching crossroads in one's career or life, disruptions that require adaptation, seeking balance, and building resilience through difficult times. The panelists provided tips and resources to help others facing similar challenges.
The document discusses various team building and communication skills, including listening skills, opening communication, effective conflict resolution, and clarifying questions. It provides tips for being an effective listener, communicator, conflict resolver, group facilitator, and for summarizing discussions. It also includes examples of clarifying questions to ask in response to different comments made in a group discussion.
The document discusses tools for analyzing social media discussions around climate change. It describes how natural language processing (NLP) can be used to understand opinions and debates, identify influential users, and analyze how campaigns spread on topics like climate change. However, NLP approaches face challenges with noisy language on social media. The document also provides an example analysis of the Earth Hour campaign on Twitter which found engagement was driven more by activities than climate issues.
This document discusses causes of conflict and ways to achieve peace. It explores conflicts in Nigeria from personal, local and global perspectives. Some ongoing conflicts in Nigeria include those between Boko Haram and the military, and between herdsmen and farming communities. The conflicts in the Niger Delta over oil pollution and its impacts on local communities are also examined. The document suggests that teaching conflict resolution skills in schools and homes could help address conflicts in Nigeria. Globally, the main causes of conflict discussed are inequality, competition over scarce resources like food and energy, and struggles for resource control.
An in-depth paper on conflict and peace. This paper highlights that conflicts are, why they occur and why they are unresolved. This way we can all achieve world peace.

Problem solving requires empathy and understanding different perspectives. It is difficult to solve problems that do not directly affect people. Developing empathy allows people to care more about issues outside their own experiences. Effective problem solvers make efforts to help others see how they will also benefit from solving community-wide problems.
The document discusses the importance of empathy in problem solving. It argues that (1) people are more motivated to solve problems that directly impact them, (2) lacking empathy makes it difficult to care about problems facing others, and (3) developing empathy allows people to better understand different perspectives and support solving community issues. The document provides strategies for improving empathy, such as listening without judgment and considering how potential solutions benefit everyone. Developing empathy is key to identifying problems all stakeholders have a role in solving.

Tree Writing Paper - Made By Teachers Christmas WLuz Martinez
Decolonization refers to the undoing of colonialism in the 20th century as nations established dominance over dependent territories. The process involved freeing colonies from foreign rule and transitioning them to self-governance. Decolonization accelerated following World War II as colonial powers lost prestige and the economic costs of empire grew. By the 1960s, most colonies in Asia and Africa had gained independence as nationalist movements opposed colonial rule. Decolonization reshaped the global political landscape and transferred power into the hands of new independent states.

4. Defining Current Events
Current events are active controversies we address at different
levels of our community -- local, state, national, or global. In
order to discuss them in school and with younger students,
teachers can focus on topics outside of culture wars, ask big
questions detached from partisan politics, and use analogies
relevant to students, primarily how those big questions might
apply at home or in school, to start conversations. Such
discussions prepare students to thoughtfully engage with their
communities now and in the future.
In other words, we can talk about and debate issues that matter
without introducing graphic subject matter, taking overtly political
stances ourselves, or talking over students’ heads.
5. Why Current Events?
Differences make things complicated. But dealing with the
complicated is what training for good citizenship is all
about. Ideas -- the ways we organize knowledge -- are the
medium of exchange in democratic life, just as money is in
the marketplace.
-- Deborah Meier, The Power of their Ideas (1995)
6. Why Current Events?
If people do not try very hard to understand what [a child]
says, he may come to feel that most of the time there is not
much point in saying anything.
-- John Holt, How Children Learn (1967)

○ Do you think the government should be allowed to begin town meetings with Christian
prayers?
● The Pope recently called on governments to help “redistribute wealth” from the wealthy
to the poor.
○ Do you think the government should force wealthier citizens to pay more in taxes so that
the money can be spent on poorer citizens?
● More people have become skeptical about man-made climate change in recent years,
although that may change later this year because of El Nino.

15. Student Discussion
● Zachar said that he both agrees and disagrees with the comments
made by the Pope. He said that the wealthy should give 25% of
their money to help the poor.
● Aly said that she agrees with Zachar - the wealthy should give at
least 25% of their money to help the poor. She said that the poor
should be treated the same as everyone else. We have enough
money all together so that no one has to be poor.
● Ravago responded that he thinks that the wealthiest people, like
the CEOs of large companies, make a lot of their money from
the hard work of other people, not just themselves.
● Nate said that he thinks that the wealthy actually should pay for
college so that the poor would be better able to get a higher paying
job and take care of their own needs.
● Jon said that he agrees with Leonard. The wealthy should make
the choice to give money to the poor, but the government should
not make the decision for them.
16. Student Discussion
● Zachar said that he thinks Trevor and the entire class could
contact the government to discuss a way to remove the
pollution from the atmosphere.
● Trevor asked Zachar, “Do you think we should try other ways to
stop man-made global warming now or should we wait until we
develop better technology?”
● Zachar responded that he thinks we should try to stop global
warming now and still work to develop better technology.
● Soren said that he agrees with everyone who said that we should
try to stop global warming now, but he also said he disagrees with
Zachar because taking more time and money for that takes it
away from other methods and possible cause other kinds of
pollution.
● Astra said that she thinks that we should try to stop global warming
because it might take a long, long time everyone to agree -
maybe even 100 years!
17. Student Discussion
● Nate shared that we should not only rescue lost soldiers, but take care
of their basic needs like healthcare, education, and places to live. They
can take care of their other things. He didn’t think we should still do that if
the soldier killed another American soldier.
● Kaitlin shared that we should give veterans money, but only to spend on
basics needs. She would be willing to give them money, but not poor
people.
● Colin shared that we should give veterans healthcare, but not more
than doctors, miners, etc. Anyone who risks their life to help the
country deserves free healthcare.
● Claire shared that she thinks we should and shouldn’t have rescued him.
She is happy that he can see his family, but she wishes that we hadn't
traded so many of the enemy soldiers for him.
● Sierra shared that she think we should have rescued him because it
wasn’t right to leave him to die.
