Part Two… Amazing Resources to Discover and Curate Digital Curriculum for Students and Teachers – – Mike Gorman ( Īs discussed last time, there are increasing demands to move textbooks and lecture from the center of instruction. I do think it is important to understand that there still is a place for both lecture and textbooks. It is just that the proper place for both is at the peripheral. Also on that sideline, educators should include amazing resources that can be found in both their learning community and on the internet. It is not only important that educators learn how to find items that will engage their students, they must also learn to organize and make it accessible The tools in the last post (Part 1) covered this concept. Please take a look if you missed that post. Remember that the student needs to be at the center of learning. Let’s get started! In this post, (Part 2) I hope to not only continue to explore ways to find information, but emphasize even more…. LiveBinders describes itself as the knowledge sharing place. We are all familiar with what we have always known and have fondly called the three ring binder. ![]() In our three ring binders of the past we collected items to put in to them and we categorized these items. We made sure there was Tab or Title sheets that separated all the categories making our information easy to find. Now… what if we could do the same thing on our computer and store our virtual binders in the cloud? Think of what we could put in our binders! There would be text, pictures, movies, sounds, maps, web pages, and so much more. Imagine having shelves of these binders that you can display by category and even share with other. What if you had access to other peoples’ binders and could edit them and make them your own? In fact, we could even share out binders with students as units of studies and through proper protocol, have them make their own. Since these binders are in the cloud we would have anytime, anyplace access. If this excites you… then know that it is all possible using LiveBinders, today! Let’s find out some more.
