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.
Summative assessment focus on what the student has learned at the end of a unit of instruction or at the end of a grade level (e.g. standard one, National Test) ( Johnson & Jenkins, 2009).
Summative assessment purpose is to let the teachers and students know the level of accomplishment attained. The final exam is classic example (Woolfolk et al 2008).

The idea of blended learning—combining digital curricula and tools with face-to-face instruction—for elementary grades is becoming more popular, and educators are finding it works particularly well in mathematics. Our guests will provide successful approaches for implementing this technique, including resources, strategies, and examples of instruction, as well as tips for modeling blended learning in elementary grade math.

THEORIES OF CURRICULUM AND THEIR MAJOR STRUCTUREseharalam
To understand the concept of theory, it is essential to understand the nature of theory in general.
Historically, the Received View holds that a theory is a formalized, deductively connected bundle of laws that are applicable in specifiable ways to their observable manifestations. In the Received View, a small number of concepts are selected as bases for the theory; axioms are introduced that specify the fundamental relationships among those concepts; and definitions are provided, specifying the remaining concepts of the theory in terms of the basic ones.

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.
ePortfolios empower students to emphasize individual strengths, therefore, allowing them to become key players in their own learning. Join the presenter as she discusses the development and implementation of ePortfolios.
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.

The Role of Sustainability in Career and Workforce DevelopmentMieko Ozeki
Presented at AASHE 2014 in Portland, OR in October 2014. Sustainability offices are in a unique position on campus. With the ability to work across departmental boundaries of campus on sustainability initiatives, our offices can provide professional development opportunities for students to work on while meeting project and program objectives. Internship programs give students the chance to develop their hard and soft skills, gain work experience, and cultivate a body of work for their portfolio; all within the relatively protected setting of an academic environment. This session focuses on how we can serve as workforce trainers and career development facilitators, suggesting best practices for designing and implementing an internship program within your office.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

4. Defining Digital Portfolios and
Portfolio Events
Digital portfolios are selected bodies of online student
work and reflection that provide evidence of students’
progress toward classroom learning targets and grade-level
themes and allow them to easily share and make changes
to their selections throughout the year.
Portfolio events are opportunities throughout the school
year for students to share and discuss the work contained
in their digital portfolios, such as student-led conferences,
celebrations of learning, and passage presentations.
Original Definitions from Leaders of their Own Learning
5. Defining Student-Led Conference, and Celebration of
Learning, and Passage Presentation
A student-led conference is a meeting attended by families and teachers.
Students facilitate the meetings themselves, share portfolio work, and
discuss progress with attendees.
A celebration of learning is a culminating grade-level or schoolwide event
attended by families, teachers, and members of the greater community.
Students facilitate the meetings themselves, share portfolio work, articulate
learning and achievement, and demonstrate college- and career-readiness
to attendees.
A passage presentation is a benchmark event at the end of a pivotal
transitions year (i.e. fifth, eighth, or twelfth grade) attended by families,
teachers, and members of the greater community. Students facilitate the
meetings themselves and share portfolio work to demonstrate their readiness
to move on to the next level of their education.

7. Authentic Audience
Every final draft my students complete is done for an
outside audience. It may be for a small audience of
Kindergarten children or a national audience on educational
television. Either way, my role as teacher is not as the sole
judge of their work but rather similar to that of a sports
coach or a play director: I am helping them to get their work
ready for the public eye. There is a reason to do the work
well, and it’s not just because the teacher wants it that way.
-- Ron Berger, An Ethic of Excellence (2003)
