too many people today believe
        in the power of
 TECHNOLOGY rather than
   the power of WORDS &

The Fire

    There was a fire ban that year
     But the carless campers left
  Leaving smoldering remains behind
      The fire that ate the forest

Wind whispered wordlessly in the trees
     The fire was given new life
     Like a new small heartbeat
     The fire that ate the forest
...continued...

     The fire lit the dry grass
   It was gathering in strength
  Like a lion preparing to strike
   The fire that ate the forest

 The fire now reached the trees
   It was a wild beast let free
Grey smoke billowed up to the sky
   The fire that ate the forest

          technology as an amplifier of good learning.

2001 revision of Bloom's Taxonomy
...when assigning a project, teachers look for
mastery of content and allow students to take
ownership of how they present that content. A
teacher may ask students to demonstrate their
knowledge of photosynthesis, but rather than
give them a specific means of doing so, will allow
the students to use any available resources to do
so. This not only gets the students innovating
more as they navigate through this task, but
more importantly makes each student’s
experience unique and gives them ownership
over the product they produce. Some students                             15 March
may make posters, some a voicethread, some a                               2012
powerpoint or prezi, but this should be no
problem for the educator as they are assessing
on mastery learning objectives and not actual
means of presenting them.
