Le rôle de l’enseignant évolue (page précédente) Il y a plusieurs années, un enseignant qui utilisait le projecteur à acétate réussissait à capter l’attention de sa classe. Ensuite, quelques enseignants ont osé utiliser un ordinateur en classe et projeter du matériel sur un écran blanc. Maintenant, de plus en plus d’écoles s’équipent de matériel pour que les élèves puissent utiliser directement la technologie. Dans un monde idéal, tout le monde aurait son ordinateur portable ou sa tablette tactile branché à Internet (sans restriction quant aux types de contenus puisque l’école serait dotée d’un code d’éthique endossé par les élèves, comme au Collège Jean-Eudes, par exemple), et chaque classe serait minimalement dotée d’un kit de robotique et d’un tableau interactif pour la mise en commun. Philippe Auger enseigne au primaire, à Boucherville. On constate que l’école est un à tournant. Pour lire la suite À propos de l'auteur Audrey Miller Pour suivre l'auteur :
Flexible Seating and Student-Centered Classroom Redesign I remember exactly where I was when I had a watershed moment that changed me as a teacher forever. In fact, it inspired my EdSurge column, Why the 21st-Century Classroom May Remind You of Starbucks. I was working on my TEDx presentation at my local Starbucks and, looking around, I realized that everyone seemed to be happy, engaged in their work, and relaxed. Problem Solvers Now = Problem Solvers Later I'm a firm believer in keeping the focus on what's really important: the students. What the Research Says Everything I do in my classroom is based on research and best practices for kids. Simple in-class activities can boost performance.

Classroom Redesign on a Budget Redesigning an entire classroom doesn't have to be expensive, especially with the help of Donors Choose.
What Makes a Good Presentation? – The Canswedian English Teacher So, you have told your class that they are going to do a presentation on something-or-other. You show them what should be included, how their Powerpoint should look, you even talk about how important it is to have proper grammar… But do we ever really teach them what it means to give a good presentation? I finally clued in to this last year. I made a Powerpoint last year, some activities and introduced it to my classes before they did their first presentation.
