The pandemic has raised concerns about the way stress is affecting kids. Even though the word ‘trauma’ is on a lot of worried adults’ minds these days, information about it is wide-ranging and can leave people feeling unsure about what to do next.
Trauma is a response to life-threatening events, harmful conditions or stressful environments, writes Vermont-based educator Alex Shevrin Venet in her book “Equity-Centered Trauma-Informed Education.” As students transition back to learning in school buildings, traumas that have been hard to see during Zoom classes may become more apparent. On top of that, adjusting to new schooling structures may be another hurdle for young learners and teachers alike. Educators who want to create a nurturing school environment for returning students or hybrid learners may find solutions in trauma-informed education that uses an equity lens.

In your dream classroom, what does a good discussion look like? For the longest time, my dream resembled a scene from Dead Poets Society. I pictured myself facilitating lively conversations about literature, with energized students speaking up, sharing insights, talking through difficult ideas, and working toward new understandings.
In reality, the reading discussions in my English classes were much more muted. Even the best ones were dominated by a few outgoing students and one loud teacher.
I knew I needed to make some changes, beginning with how I perceived a “good” discussion.
I assumed—incorrectly—that a good discussion must be verbal. By doing so, I excluded quiet students and others who wanted to contribute but needed more time to process new information.
With those students in mind, I began offering more opportunities to engage with reading outside of whole-class discussions, including low-stakes writing such as freewriting, journaling, and chat app conversations.
Those opportunities helped, but I saw the most engagement by introducing collective notes. Jim Lerman's insight: Secondary Level. A clever and engaging way to get more students involved in classroom thought-sharing.

CDLRA Conversations: Decision-Making in Uncertain Times, September 6, 2021 The CDLRA (Canadian Digital Learning Research Association) is in the process of analysing the results from the 2021 survey of Canadian Universities and Colleges. As the 2021-22 academic year begins, Dr. Brian Desbiens and Dr. Nicole Johnson share key findings from the 2021 National Survey of Online and Digital Learning as they discuss some of the key challenges facing institutions in the coming year. (Declaration of interest: I am Chair of the CDLRA/ACRFL Board). Brian Desbiens is a CDLRA Board member, but, more importantly, he has over 35 years experience in the management and administration of colleges in the Ontario system. I found his comments on the significance of the findings extremely compelling. I strongly recommend every senior administrator on the Canadian post-secondary system to view this 28 minute video, which lays out clearly the main challenges all Canadian post-secondary institutions are dealing with as they enter the next phase of managing the ongoing Covid crisis. I also look forward to other videos in this series as more results become available – – watch this space!

"The first week of December is nationally recognized in schools as “Computer Science Education Week” or “CSEdWeek.” This is a week dedicated to providing students in all grade levels with opportunities to learn about computer science (CS). Many schools get started with free curriculum from organizations such as: "These sites offer entertaining and engaging ways to introduce algorithms, loops, conditionals, and other CS concepts to students. While the hands-on coding activities foster a fun introduction and spark interest, many educators are looking for more ways to embed the value of CS into the school’s physical environment and highlight how CS intersects with other content areas. "Research about how the physical environment affects young women’s entry and persistence in computing indicates that “The décor of physical spaces conveys messages about the kinds of people who belong there and the kinds of activities that should be done there. Understanding this influence allows us to actively craft an environment that makes a broad range of people feel welcome in computing" (www.ncwit.org/physicalspaceuw). "A free and easy way to get started is by printing and displaying CS posters throughout the school. Here is a list of where to go for free downloadable posters: "RobbotResources has free downloadable poster collections that cover a wide variety of topics in CS and cover the intersection of CS skills with specific content areas, such as art, music, humanities, PE, and others. These poster collections highlight that computing skills aren’t isolated to the CS class. Many schools print the collections to display the posters in corresponding content-area classrooms. The colorful graphics on the posters weave a common thread of a shared goal of providing pathways to careers and foster responsible digital citizenship skills. "Visit the website to view the collections. You can see the recommended grade level for each collection and read reviews and suggestions from other educators who have downloaded the posters. "Here are some sample collections that emphasize the variety offered by RobbotResources: Article continues...

La protection des données personnelles repose sur des activités mises en œuvre par chaque organisme (pilotage, gestion du registre, veille juridique, etc.). Toutefois, ces activités ne sont pas systématiquement prises en charge dans toutes les organisations et ne sont pas toujours gérées de manière homogène. La CNIL partage ses premières réflexions sur la réalisation d’un « modèle de maturité » en gestion de la protection des données.

Are you working on a research project or simply looking for credible information? Google Scholar can help you find free and credible research articles.
Instead of searching for scholarly articles in a standard Google search, you can use a simpler method to find articles. Google Scholar is a division of Google that focuses on scholarly literature, that way you can easily find articles that you need for your research.

It’s back-to-school time, and we have learned that virtual learning should not be a $25,000-per-year video streaming service. A decade after “massive open online courses,” or MOOCs — filmed lectures that can be watched from anywhere followed by participation in online discussion forums — were popularized, education technologies have improved dramatically. This generation of students expects continual innovation in education delivery.

Omnichannel marketing — the use of physical and digital storefronts to reach consumers with a unified experience — is a fundamental strategy of modern retailing. Brands that aspire to this approach seek customers via multiple channels: direct mail, TV ads, YouTube channel, website, telemarketing, social media, mobile site, and storefronts. Instead of the brick-and-mortar approach to which Barnes and Noble was clinging — where cannibalization of store sales was the bogeyman — omnichannel strategies assume that consumers will move from one channel to another.
