Ringwood North Primary's CBL Video Receives EdReach Award | The New Media Consortium

Ringwood North Primary's CBL Video Receives EdReach Award | The New Media Consortium | Scriveners' Trappings | Scoop.it

THIS IS AN OUTSTANDING PROJECT AND VIDEO. -JL

 

Posted 12/2/11 by Samantha Adams

Earlier this week, Adam Brice, Challenge Based Learning (CBL) educator and assistant principal at Ringwood North Primary in Melbourne, Australia received a tremendous honor. What started out as a video to share the school's CBL project with their community became an extremely valuable asset for education at large. We weren't the only ones to take notice and feel that tug as we watched the young students helping communities recover from natural disasters. Brice's video, below, was just awarded the title of "#1 Educational Video of 2011" by EdReach.

The Best Social Networks for Kids Under 13 | Time | Scriveners' Trappings | Scoop.it

"While reality can be scary, there are plenty of safe sites designed for kids under 13. Still, all the kid-friendly social networking sites in the world won’t help if kids find the adult versions more fun. We researched kid-friendly sites and then talked to kids to get a feel for the fun factor to collect four kid-approved sites."

5 Ways Writers Can Break Out of the Tired Old Social Media Box | Scriveners' Trappings | Scoop.it

The social media world is changing daily. In other words, we must be alert and aware of the new tools that could support us in our approach. This interesting article speaks about some "new" tools that can also help us to go towards to success. [note Martin Gysler]

 

It’s time to teach that old dog some new tricks.

 

That old dog I’m referring to is social media.
