Japanese Use Phonics as Training Wheels

In early school reading Japanese school children use a phonetic alphabet and switch to a pictographic by grade 4 when the students need to do more complex reading.

In a way, so do we.  We call it speed reading where the goal is undersanding without phonetic decoding.

A question that interests me.  Most of us can look at a word and say it.But I cannot look at a word and hear it.  Am I alone?

Power Point Presentations Beyond Note Taking

The use of PowerPoint presentations in schools takes advantage of education technology integration strategies and techniques. However, student learning is not improved when these presentations are merely a substitute for note taking bullets from older overhead projectors. To take advantage of the power of this technology, the elimination of boring slide shows must be replaced with interactive story telling that keeps students engaged.
