Creative writing tips for teachers: ideas and activities to inspire your class Engaging children and encouraging them to write has become increasingly difficult in the classroom. My children are bombarded with interactive and visual images constantly through the media and the internet and, as their teacher, it has become much harder for me to compete. Who wants to read or write an emotional descriptive piece when they can be fully immersed in this feeling through interactive game play? This challenge has led me to look at how I can use these media, and more dynamic approaches, to engage children in wanting to use their literacy skills and to hook them into becoming creative and thoughtful writers. Using video One way which is sure to engage children is through the use of video, in particular TV and film.

101 Short Stories that Will Leave You Smiling, Crying and Thinking post written by: Marc Chernoff Email Since its inception eighteen months ago, our sister site Makes Me Think (MMT) has truly evolved into a remarkable online community.

Frida Gustavsson by Boe Marion for Scandinavia S/S/A/W Spring/Summer 2014 Advertising The romanticism of the northern European woods is gracefully portrayed through the Swedish beauty Frida Gustavsson in Boe Marion’s story for Scandinavia S/S/A/W Spring/Summer 2014. It is an enchanting story where photographer Boe Marion has captured two lover’s intimate and emotional moments acted out among the fascinating mountains of Scandinavia. Frida’s fragility is embracing the nature’s peacefulness and with a wardrobe matching her state of mind chosen by stylist Oscar Lange, her passion comes to life. Creative director Jakob Hysén Hedberg’s input together with Lange and Marion’s work, is not only reaching a new high within editorials but it is also a gratitude towards the beauty of nature.

AMS Design Blog: Graphic Design: Vidar Olufsen's Résumé & Job Application Take a look at this great piece of work by Norwegian designer Vidar Olufsen. The idea came to him after being told by a design company that they would file away his CV for later, which made him think of old, dusty files forgotten about in the corner of an office somewhere. “A combined résumé and open job application formed as a humorous “Top Secret” report, giving away information about a ‘newly educated and creative designer, who have settled in the city’.” Two Wonderful Visual Lists of Educational iPad Apps for Teachers and Students In their attempts to establish a 1:1 program for the year 6 class, St Oliver Plunket has recently held a series of workshops in order to develop their students skills before they were officially given management of their very own devices. The workshops were particularly centered around teaching students about some tips and tricks for managing their iPad, email etiquette, successful searching and copyright and creative commons. I personally was thrilled by the efforts these people from St Oliver are putting into making their 1:1 program a success and I hope other schools would do the same. What attracts my attention more than anything else in this program are the two lists of core apps curated for both teachers and students. As soon as I saw the titles included in these lists I knew from my own experience in reviewing educational apps that these could be a very good start for anyone of you out there trying to incorporate iPad in your teaching.
