Stanford University --> Stanford Summer Teaching Institute : 4.56'
  
Stanford Summer Teaching Institute  


I choose a podcast about Stanford Summer Teaching because when I saw this title I wanted to know why there was a teaching in summer.  This video is very fast but it’s interesting.
CSET is a Center to Support Excellence in Teaching. The schools try to have good teachers thanks to formations. The mainly objectives is to focus on the quality of teaching for children. SSTI (Stanford Summer Teaching Institute) is an opportunity for teachers to continue keeping their own understanding with their own content, but also to have access to workshops which allow to exchange methods of learning. The teachers focus on the development of practices instructional which are very differents. There are small workshops for the teachers in order to find learning methods and news materials for classes. The teachers improve their comprehension about the content of their lessons. There are lots of exchanges between the teachers. An objective very important is to help the teachers answer to their needs according to school subjects. When they return on their class, they can improve their learning methods. The teams are the base because the teachers share their experiences together. In these workshops, there are 2 primary cross:

-          Develop an instructional leadership team that have shared vision
-          Really teach team 

To finish, SSTI are lots of advantages: continual supports, opportunities for students to share their first experiences, opportunities for teacher to exchange methods, improve teaching learning, lots of interactions… 

I think teaching in summer is a good idea because the teachers can work in small workshops to improve theirs weaks points in their teaching. It’s an important experience for the teacher because thanks to these training course children have a good teaching.

What's technology ?

Few years ago, people couldn't communicate easily. Mainly, they used the phone or they corresponded through letters. But there has been a big change when the computers appeared.
Before computers were very big and were used only to make calculation. The computers have upgraded, and now there are more small, and lots of companies use computers with an Internet connection.

Internet is a good invention, and it's very useful. You have access to world news, you can communicate with tchat or blog, you can find childhood friends thanks to Facebook for example. You watching clips, videos, films and you listening music on-line. With Internet, you can send e-mail.

I think, news technologies are very important. You use technologies with lots of moderation, because after you become addict !

And you, What are you do on the web ?


What do you think about this video ?

It's a video about "future of screen technologie", speaks about the screens of computers or phones. It's a funny video, but I don't think that it's feasible !
