http://transformededucator.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Image from: http:/ www.flickr.com/photos/moonwell/3121975018/. Thursday, November 10, 2011. Yesterday, Roland Dargis (a colleague of mine in the math dept. at Cold Lake HS) and I set out to create a Dan Meyer style video for the Gr.12 unit on Permuations and Combinations. Our idea was that we could videotape ourselves filling up slurpee cups and then have our students try to determine how many possible different combinations of slurpees could be created.

Some watched it twice. The Bad and Ugly:. 3 The facilitation p...

Image from: http:/ www.flickr.com/photos/moonwell/3121975018/. Wednesday, February 6, 2013. Message from the Alberta Minister of Education.

These things will be a priority for me in the...

Saturday, September 24, 2011. Evaluating the Web and Homework is more than busy work. There is always a debate about whether or not homework is essential to learning.
