Roland O'Daniel replied to Susan Wells's discussion 'iPod Touch Schoolwide Implementation'
I have a couple of questions, we are looking to develop a lab approach with a couple of teams of students. How are you handling the logging into and out of accounts on the iPod Touches? One of the processes we are struggling with is setting up apps…
Roland O'Daniel replied to Mark Benn's discussion 'Math pedagogy-Are we giving kids credit for what they can do?'
Maria, I'm sorry I haven't replied to this. I looked at the mindmap and find it interesting. I'm not sure i have anything to add to it, but find it interesting that statistical/regression modeling doesn't have it's own…
Roland O'Daniel replied to Susan Wells's discussion 'iPod Touch Schoolwide Implementation'
It's not just the size. It is a lot easier to read on (I mean a lot), it is much easier to create content on using keypad, and functions so much better when trying to write on (especially is doing math problems). I would say that if my choice…
Roland O'Daniel replied to Darin's discussion 'Bringing the excitement to the math classroom?'
Hey Darin, I just came across your discussion. I wonder are you still using wikis and blogging with your students? I looked around your wiki and thought there was some really interesting stuff going on. I saw that the wiki was recently updated, but…

Mil gracias

Bob Zenhausern said… - Just looked more closely at your second topic and it intrigues me, even though I am not sure what you mean. ;)
using metacognitive reflection and threaded discussions to identify processes and concepts that students are using in problem solving situations in algebra.
Metacognitive reflection...what do you mean by that?

- Took a little while to get back. Your thesis idea sounds interesting and I would lke to take a look and give my reactions. I am interested in incorporating a spreadsheet into all math courses so the arithmetic becomes invisible and the students can concentrate on the math.
By the way, do you notice learning styles in math. For example, geometry and more graphically oriented material vs algebra and more digitally oriented material.

- Hey Roland, more good points you are making about the "power" of the arts and in particular music. I see it as an academic middle ground especially for my at-risk and reluctant learners. Talking about the meaning of songs and lyrics seems to create an intellectual "comfort zone" for my students where they begin to engage in critical thinking about course content themes and ideas. My area is social studies but will look around for music and math resources.

- Good points in your reply regarding social networks, I have been using comments on my arts in education MySpace to engage and motivate middle school students. Since MySpace is blocked at my school, and the students are young to be using MySpace I simply cut and paste the comments at home into a word document and share them with my classes that way. Check them out...

The snow's beautiful though as I get ready to take my labs out snowshoeing. Thanks for asking. I lived in KY years ago; I was a drill sergeant at Fort Know in the early 80s. Art

- Hi Roland,
Thanks for your comments on the math/literacy blog. It looks as if we have similar occupations and interests. I coach/mentor teachers in literacy education. I see you are interested in technology as well. Did you ever go to the Alan November conference in July? It's a great experience.

- Roland: Thanks for the idea. I intend to use it for my very next thread. I just gave it a look see. I didn't see a limit on words, and I'm going to assume each discussion will post without interference with any other post? I'd really like to move away from the "journals" and go digital where ever possible. I've been reluctant because of the issue with students posting over one another. Perhaps you've provided the answer I was looking for. Incidentally, I've been giving serious consideration to pursuing a doctorate in curriculum development too!
