I have students make podcasts to demonstrate topics we are learning. Also if we do a demonstration, students create a video for me and we post it on our server. I use these year after year. Here is a link to our podcast server.…

We have an end of course test for biology in Georgia. I learned last year that many kids are auditory learners. I've taught for 14 years, but I'm not an auditory learner, so it didn't occur to me they would actually USE podcasts I…

I agree blogging would help your students. This could initiate "peer tutoing".

Increase technology! Kids multitask through a variety of ways. I have attempted this in the classroo: SMART technology, blogging, using cell phone cameras, etc. It is engaging and they love learning this way. However, will they test well?

The Five Minds for the Future: Respectful and Ethical

Trust is crucial! "Respect does not entail a "pass" for terrorists." Isn't that the truth. I respect other values, beliefs, etc. Respect mine in the classroom. Respect is one of the #1 issues teachers face today. Respect me, respect others, respect yourself!

We used my classroom blog: www.mshszoology.blogspot.com.
Students blog answers to questions linked to a pbs.org. page. It was a really neat activity, however, students have difficulty remembering their id numbers and email accounts.

blue ringed octopus and neurotransmitters. It's very much 'edutainment'.

The scenario....

I am walking along the beach/rock pools, and I step on a rock or something sharp. I think nothing of it.

After a few minutes my speech becomes slurrrrreedd. I am having trouble balancinggggg wwwwoooow.

I decide I need to go to the surf life savers, but I am having trouble walking and I can't really see where I am going. I try to tell my friends buuuullllt Iiiy canmt taaaawng properly. My leennngs doooonn work nnn I am shoort of brreatth.

I am blind now, and laying on the beach paralysed. I can't move, cant speak, can't breathe, and my heart has stopped beating.

I have been bitten by a blue ringed octopus. It has 2 pouches of toxin next to it's beak (yes, they have a beak). One is to subdue prey, and the other is for defense and is deadly.

There is no cure for the deadly - no shot or pill.

The only thing that can save me is if I receive 12 - 24 hrs of heart massage to keep my blood circulating until the toxin wears off.

I hope my friends are up to it.

The Blue Ringed Octopus is found around the most populated parts of the Australian coastline. It is the size of a golf ball.
