Personalized Learning – Swedish Style « June 14, 2012 by cultureofyes In the middle of an industrial park just outside of Stockholm is one of Sweden’s top-performing schools – Kunskapsskolan Tyresö. It is part of a network of 33 Kunskapsskolan schools in Sweden – all funded by a public school voucher system (Sweden has a national voucher model), and has no tuition, accepting students on a first-come, first-served basis. Having just spent some time with several colleagues who attended High Tech High, in San Diego, I couldn’t help but notice the similarities in the stories they told (Here is a post by Gary Kern and by Lynne Tomlinson) about their experiences. The physical plant itself is modest. Here are some of the key elements we saw as we walked around the school and talked with teachers and students: The bullet points are all quite familiar for those following the personalized learning discussions. Here is Eiken’s full presentation: Just as with High Tech High, there are many “Yeah, buts”. Like this: Like Loading...

Get Over It: The Truth About College Grad 'Underemployment' Guest post written by Abigail Johnson and Tammy Nicastro Abigail Johnson is president of Roeder-Johnson, a Silicon Valley strategic communications and PR firm. Tammy Nicastro is Executive Director of Development at UCSF Medical Center and Benioff Children’s Hospital. This article represents their personal opinions and not those of their employers. In recent weeks, there have been a slew of articles that reported how difficult things will be for this year’s college graduates because they can expect to be unemployed or “underemployed”. It’s just plain arrogant for anyone to consider their job underemployment. First, when people get a job, there is nothing stopping them from making their own luck. Let’s talk about making your own luck: One woman we know was a graduate of one of the finest universities in the U.S. with a very high GPA. We all know stories like these. Now let’s look at this issue of reinforcing the idea of entitlement.
Strategies For Expat Educators To Avoid Being "Broke" In Retirement This is the fourth article in a series by my friend, Dr. Jeff Devens. He’s a humble, extremely knowledgeable advocate for overseas investors, with an impressive knowledge about investment fees, US taxes and Roth 401 plans for educators overseas. How much income do you need in retirement? As a kid growing up on public assistance with no father, I wanted, needed, and longed for a better financial future. A meager social safety net awaits American expats. I struggled (and still am) writing the above. The problem of saving for retirement isn’t unique to expats. Question: Can an expat teacher spend a career abroad and retire with a few million dollars? They Live On A Budget. When it comes to finance, our tendency is to measure in days what it takes decades to amass. For the past 28 years, Jeff has served as an international school psychologist, counselor, and educator.

The Good Project Core Concepts: Engagement — The Good Project by Shelby Clark When you go to work, how do you feel? Consider the following questions: At work, do you feel bursting with energy? If you answered yes to many of these questions, it’s likely that you feel very engaged by your work. Here at The Good Project, the idea of engagement, in addition to ethics and excellence, serves as one of our 3 Es of “good work.” The Good Work research study originally began with hundreds of interviews from a variety of different professions, including those such as genetics, journalism, law, and medicine. Lynn Barendsen described this phenomenon of engagement and over-engagement in The Good Project’s work with teachers over the past several years. Engagement as one of The Good Project’s 3 Es has been left open to some interpretation to fit a variety of contexts. At The Good Project, we’ve found that engagement overlaps with a variety of our other core concepts, such as missions, values, and responsibilities. Consider the above definitions and suggestions.
Personal knowledge base A personal knowledge base (PKB) is an electronic tool used to express, capture, and later retrieve the personal knowledge of an individual. It differs from a traditional database in that it contains subjective material particular to the owner, that others may not agree with nor care about. Importantly, a PKB consists primarily of knowledge, rather than information; in other words, it is not a collection of documents or other sources an individual has encountered, but rather an expression of the distilled knowledge the owner has extracted from those sources. Definition[edit] The term personal knowledge base itself was coined in 2011 by Stephen Davies of the University of Mary Washington[1] and has a tripartite definition: personal: a PKB is intended for private use, and its contents are custom-tailored to the individual. Contrast with other classes of systems[edit] The following classes of systems cannot be classified as PKBs: Personal information management[edit] Historical influences[edit]
