Extrait (traduction libre) :
"En faisant de la "curation" avec Scoop.it, les élèves utilisent les compétences de pensée critique pour collecter, évaluer et analyser le contenu, ils peuvent identifier les tendances du discours, ils développent des compétences d'écriture dans l'expression originale, et ils interagissent, communiquent et publient à un public mondial. Mais peut-être plus important encore, les élèves pratiquent la citoyenneté numérique et la responsabilité personnelle à l'apprentissage continu." Delete the scoop?

"With this new application in Google Docs ( Drive ), teachers can now record their audio comments and share them with their students. I see this as a better way to give feedback on students' work and I do believe there are things we can express with our voice that no written code could ever capture like the tone and intonation..etc." Via John Evans

Update/Tip: I tried it out-if you have to change your original document-just copy it and add voice to it-121 Writing doesn't sync with your Google Docs updates.
Instructors are always looking for ways to add audio feedback-I'd much prefer adding voice messages to my student's Google Docs then just text like I have in the past. Delete the scoop?

Today, in addition to introducing children to books and curating collections in school libraries, teacher-librarians are doing the same with websites and online information. They often research and vet appropriate websites ahead of time to provide to teachers when they're covering a particular subject, just as they do with books. But they also teach students to do better Internet searches, refine their search terms, and become more independent. Part of the challenge is a trend teachers and librarians call "satisficing," a combination of satisfying and sufficient or suffice, said Finlay. In other words, students' approach is often "get what I need for an assignment and hand it in." Teacher-librarians aim to get students to look deeper into their subjects.

I like this poster. Learning psychology is about explaining or outlining a theory, followed by evidence in the form of research, ending with critical evaluative commentary. This will be helpful for students.

A useful infographic that not only summarises the attributes of a critical thinker but more significantly, provides a 25 point list of actions teachers can invite students to do in learning activities, to stimulate and develop critical thinking abilities.
