Howdy fellow bloggers,
It's my opinion that this website is the single most useful and versatile tool for teaching mathematical and scientific concepts out there in the jungle that is Web 2.0. I was so keen to show everyone that I've skipped ahead a few weeks and popped a link in here. The video below is a sample of what I'm talking about. I get gee'd up every single time time I watch it and can't wait to try out some awesome pedagogy techniques in real life!
Here is a link to my wikispace page on the Khan Academy where you will find some more detailed info on some of the ICT methods I employ to create this blog page.
The image below depicts the pyramidal structure of the amazingly effective scaffolding method employed by the Khan Academy. The student is guided efficiently through their learning, whizzing through the parts they've mastered, affording extra time to work on elements with which they are struggling.
I just wanted to update my blog with what I've been doing all day. There's some impressive peer-reviewed literature to back up the Academy's impressive pedagogical claims which I intend to include at a later stage on my blog. The images above was how much I managed to get finished today.
