The questions we are supposed to be answering are posed to us as though we are all teachers with classrooms full of students with similar assignments and needs (maybe not really needs, but for my purposes, just go with it). However, I am not yet a...

It's been a while since I read The Global Achievement Gap because I thought it was assigned for the first or second week of class, but that got changed. I do remember finding it interesting and agreeable. I read the Hybridization article last nigh...

First of all, my friend who works a CWRU was able to obtain Huey's book for me! Yea! Secondly, I have to say that this class has really sparked an awareness of all of the media and means of communication I have available to me. I have been taking ...

Design Project Proposal

Project Proposal
Ariella Epstein
April 20, 2009

I am planning to create a WebQuest for use in a seventh grade Social Studies class for my Design Project. The topic of the WebQuest will be a comparison of direct and representative democracy using example from ancient Athens, the Roman Republic and the United States. My vision for this project is that it will be carried out in a classroom of about 20 students of varying abilities with access to five classroom computers. Computer lab time and work… Continue

Design Project

After speaking with Dr. Shutkin I have decided to do my Design Project in the form of a WebQuest.

THey will be researching direct and representative democracy through examining Athens, Rome and the United States, as per the Standards. I will be incorporating Wagner's survival skills into the lesson and plan to capitalize on this year's election. I'm ve… Continue

My Fabulous Five

The five websites that I've chosen for my webpage are:

1) http://www.lingoz.com/en/
I included this websote for two of my students, who spend half of their day learning in a foreign language. I find that their parents are often not available to help them with their homework in this area, for a number of reasons. On days that I am not at their house I have a feeling their homework does not get done. This site gives them access to two-way translations and the option to submit words to be translat… Continue

What They Want

I have only been able to ask one parent and one student what they would be looking for if I were to create a website for the students I tutor. The student, who was not feeling well, simply said, "I don't know". Even if she were feeling well, I'm not sure she would have given me much more input. Her mother, on the other hand gave me LOTS of input. To begin with, she told me that she would like to see pictures and tidbits about the other students I tutor. She said it would be interesting to see wh… Continue

Web 2.0 Apps?

The questions we are supposed to be answering are posed to us as though we are all teachers with classrooms full of students with similar assignments and needs (maybe not really needs, but for my purposes, just go with it). However, I am not yet a teacher with a classroom of my own, and therefore do not have classes in which students could be collaborating with one another on assignments I give, or anything of the like really. Instead I am a tutor to six individual students in different schools… Continue

Hi Ariella, Here is the reference you were wondering about:

Huey, Edmund Burke, 1870-1913
The psychology and pedagogy of reading : with a review of the history of reading and writing and of methods, texts, and hygiene in reading / Edmund Burke Huey
Bristol, U.K. : Thoemmes Press ; Tokyo, Japan : Maruzen Co., 1998

There were several versions of the book. This is the most recent printing and it is currently available through OhioLink at both CWRU and at U of Akron:

CWRU Kelvin Smith Stacks LB1573.H88 1998
U of Akron Bierce LB1573 .H88 1998
