Plickers getting started Kenny Pieper

Plickers is a classroom response system that allows teachers to poll students and receive real-time feedback without students needing devices. Teachers create multiple choice or true/false questions in the Plickers app or website. Students respond using printed cards with unique identifiers. The teacher scans the cards with the app to instantly view anonymous results. Results can be viewed in class or analyzed later to assess student understanding.

Creating Flipped Lessons Kate Willey

Flipping a classroom means giving students content like lectures to learn on their own, typically through videos, and doing activities and problem-solving in class with teacher guidance. It aims to make students more responsible for their learning and engage them with technology. Not every lesson needs to be completely flipped; teachers can flip parts of lessons. While it requires more initial effort from teachers to prepare videos, it saves class time otherwise spent on lectures. The document provides several free digital tools and resources teachers can use to create and implement flipped content.

Flip Your InstructionAndrew Steinman

Andrew Steinman presented on flipping instruction using the flipped classroom model. He discussed the benefits of a flipped classroom like differentiation, more time for engaging activities, and no gaps in learning. He explained the different versions of a flipped classroom from 101 to 201 and emphasized that quality instructional videos, engaging classroom activities, and robust assessments are key elements for success. The presentation provided tips for creating videos and introduced tools for making videos on computers and tablets. Participants practiced creating an instructional video to flip a lesson.

Screencasting for AdministratorsAndrew Steinman

This presentation discusses how administrators can use screencasting. It begins by introducing the presenter and stating the learning objectives. It then defines screencasting and provides examples of how teachers use it for technology tutorials, flipped classrooms, and student feedback. The presentation recommends how administrators can model technology use for teachers by creating screencasts for staff meetings, school updates, and parent communications. Various screencasting tools are presented such as Educreations, Screencast-O-Matic, Snagit, and Camtasia. The presentation concludes by encouraging attendees to practice making a screencast and sharing how they will apply what they learned.

K12 Tableau Tuesday - Algebra Equity and Access in Atlanta Public Schoolsdogden2

Algebra 1 is often described as a “gateway” class, a pivotal moment that can shape the rest of a student’s K–12 education. Early access is key: successfully completing Algebra 1 in middle school allows students to complete advanced math and science coursework in high school, which research shows lead to higher wages and lower rates of unemployment in adulthood. Learn how The Atlanta Public Schools is using their data to create a more equitable enrollment in middle school Algebra classes.

To study the nervous system of insect.pptxArshad Shaikh

The *nervous system of insects* is a complex network of nerve cells (neurons) and supporting cells that process and transmit information. Here's an overview: Structure 1. *Brain*: The insect brain is a complex structure that processes sensory information, controls behavior, and integrates information. 2. *Ventral nerve cord*: A chain of ganglia (nerve clusters) that runs along the insect's body, controlling movement and sensory processing. 3. *Peripheral nervous system*: Nerves that connect the central nervous system to sensory organs and muscles. Functions 1. *Sensory processing*: Insects can detect and respond to various stimuli, such as light, sound, touch, taste, and smell. 2. *Motor control*: The nervous system controls movement, including walking, flying, and feeding. 3. *Behavioral responThe *nervous system of insects* is a complex network of nerve cells (neurons) and supporting cells that process and transmit information.

Characteristics 1. *Decentralized*: Insect nervous systems have some autonomy in different body parts. 2. *Specialized*: Different parts of the nervous system are specialized for specific functions. 3. *Efficient*: Insect nervous systems are highly efficient, allowing for rapid processing and response to stimuli. The insect nervous system is a remarkable example of evolutionary adaptation, enabling insects to thrive in diverse environments.

YSPH VMOC Special Report - Measles Outbreak Southwest US 4-30-2025.pptxYale School of Public Health - The Virtual Medical Operations Center (VMOC)

A measles outbreak originating in West Texas has been linked to confirmed cases in New Mexico, with additional cases reported in Oklahoma and Kansas. The current case count is 795 from Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Kansas. 95 individuals have required hospitalization, and 3 deaths, 2 children in Texas and one adult in New Mexico. These fatalities mark the first measles-related deaths in the United States since 2015 and the first pediatric measles death since 2003. The YSPH Virtual Medical Operations Center Briefs (VMOC) were created as a service-learning project by faculty and graduate students at the Yale School of Public Health in response to the 2010 Haiti Earthquake. Each year, the VMOC Briefs are produced by students enrolled in Environmental Health Science Course 581 - Public Health Emergencies: Disaster Planning and Response. These briefs compile diverse information sources – including status reports, maps, news articles, and web content– into a single, easily digestible document that can be widely shared and used interactively. Key features of this report include: - Comprehensive Overview: Provides situation updates, maps, relevant news, and web resources. - Accessibility: Designed for easy reading, wide distribution, and interactive use. - Collaboration: The “unlocked" format enables other responders to share, copy, and adapt seamlessly. The students learn by doing, quickly discovering how and where to find critical information and presenting it in an easily understood manner.
