The Promise of Multicultural Education

The Promise of Multicultural Education First, what is multicultural education?

At the classroom level, for example, teachers may modify or incorporate lessons to reflect the cultural diversity of the students in a […]

The Importance of STEM Education

The Importance of STEM Education STEM…STEAM… we’ve all heard these acronyms for years. What do they stand for? And why are they important?  The education sector has identified the need to build world-class talent in science and mathematics. From K-12 to Higher Education, lawmakers, universities, and companies are now developing innovative strategies to strengthen Science, […]

Is Summer School Effective?

Is Summer School Effective? Is summer school effective? Yes or no? Summer school is often associated with bored students staring out the window, but it can be a beneficial experience. It can help students compensate for learning losses, improve their grades, take specialized classes, and prepare them for college. However, research shows that summer school […]

The Power of Collaboration in the Classroom

Collaboration is a key term in the professional world. Teachers have collaborated for years. However, the idea of student collaboration is quickly gaining ground. So, what’s ideal when it comes to collaboration in the classroom? Perhaps several children gathered around a table engaged in a high-level task? Or a college lecture hall where students discuss, […]

G.A.M.E.S. for the Classoom

G.A.M.E.S. for the Classoom I recently attended a professional development session where the presenter intentionally used the word “play” in the presentation.

Gaming in Classrooms

Gaming in Classrooms As I was writing this piece, I had multiple flashbacks to the 1980s, the decade I first experienced game based learning.
