Robert Rose: The Self-Sustaining Classroom

Arrange your class in a manner that supports all and expects them to develop a workplan. Read Rose's blog to see how he describes such an atmosphere.

Robert Rose: The Self-Sustaining Classroom: "Chris Biffle's 'Power Teaching' taught successfully in many schools in many districts. It makes classrooms more safe, fun, and effective and the control method is more persuasive than coercive."

COMPUTERS! COMPUTERS? COMPUTERS! COMPUTERS?

I am eager for us to begin using our computers in class. The only drawback is that there are no computers yet. Hmmmm. Good thing I haven't taken hours upon hours upon hours trying to develop lessons and activities for us. I have connected with someone from ?? Germany to work with designing a wiki. I also would like for us to be a part of the Blogging Challenge being offered by EduBlogger but it is kind of difficult to do with no COMPUTERS.
