Habits and Habitats: Rethinking Learning Spaces for the 21st Century by Ryan Bretag

Habits and Habitats: Rethinking Learning Spaces for the 21st Century

By LeaderTalk Contributor on November 26, 2010 8:20 PM



The moment students enter the classroom, the space informs them more than we can imagine about the type of learning the environment will foster and the clear direction the lead learner in the classroom wishes to go.

Anthropology Dissertation: in which areas/topics would you like to see more research done?

Hello All Dissertation Students,



I am in the process of finding out a topic for a anthropology dissertation , more specifically in forensic anthropology. Although I am quite sure what I want to do, I am interested in having views of others in the fields, and where they think research is lacking. With a bit of luck, my ideas will be amongst the areas suggested!



I am… Continue

The Illusion of Power-reprint from Guide to life blog

Ever heard the saying ‘He is a big fish in a little pond’ well a lot of people are under the misconception they hold a lot more power than they do.

Psst don’t tell anyone but you actually don’t have any power at all other than that you have over your own thoughts and actions. Sad but true we all have free will and no one can control another person or the world in which they live. Oh we can create the illusion of power but that’s all it is an illusion.



We can give people the… Continue

Training for Parents of Children Challenged with ADHD

By Elaine Lerner, MSW, CSW





After the diagnosis of ADHD or Autism, parents often call me feeling overwhelmed when trying to understand how to put together a plan to manage their child's needs. ADHD or Autism can best be managed through a combination of modalities including but not limited to medical and behavioral management treatments.

A Whole New Mind

I just wanted to recommend to all educators this wonderful and inciteful book. It was recommended to me by a colleague and it's my turn to pass it on. It is "A Whole New Mind" by Daniel Pink. It talks about the right-brainers and how now it is there time. It makes so much sense and it will awaken that side of your brain and make you aware of how this could and should affect education.

I have a new awareness and support of what I believe in. Definitely a must read.

Science cannot be secret!

In a recent contribution to the growth/value-added discussion on the DATAG listserv, it was stated that "We invite comment from any of our DATAG Colleagues but are especially interested in the opinions of our resident statisticians." The arc of this discussion is exactly what I had feared - and predicted in my initial posting on May 31.



It runs like this: Growth and value-added models are extremely technical. Here, try to read these extremely technical articles. If you do not… Continue

Mentors.net - a Professional Development Resource

Mentors.net was founded in 1995 as a professional development resource for school administrators leading new teacher induction programs. It soon evolved into a destination where both new and student teachers could reflect on their teaching experiences. Now, nearly thirty years later, Mentors.net has taken on a new direction—serving as a platform for beginning teachers, preservice educators, and

other professionals to share their insights and experiences from the early years of teaching, with a focus on integrating artificial intelligence. We invite you to contribute by sharing your experiences in the form of a journal article, story, reflection, or timely tips, especially on how you incorporate AI into your teaching

practice. Submissions may range from a 500-word personal reflection to a 2,000-word article with formal citations.
