Data Drvien Teacher

After reading the article Data Driven Teachers, I think I could see myself using this in the classroom with hopes of getting improvement out of my students. What I think is the key to it is what changes myself the teacher makes. Hopefully after gathering the summative data and analyzing it properly, it is important that I make the neccessary changes in order to challenge my students to get them to improve. The changes made are what makes the Data Driven Teachers theory effective.

Digital Generation Post.

From the article, Understanding the Digital Generation, one thing that I found interesting was the "Learning Styles" section. It states that "Digital learners prefer receiving information quickly from multiple multimedia sources." This made me think about any time a breaking news story occurs or something big happens in a sporting event. First I hear about it from Facebook, as 10-12 friends will make it their status. Then If I log on my Twitter again, there will be 10-12 people tweeting about the event that has occurred, and it will show up in "Trending Topics." Then if I am really lucky I will recieve a text message or two asking did you hear about this, did you see that, ect. So I would have to completely agree with the statement made in this article.
