This is a place for me to share some of my work. On this site you will find many examples of micro lessons. Many of them will take the form of 1 to 10 minutes video clips or short to the point articles. I believe that micro lessons could be a powerful tool that we can use with students. I hope that you enjoy this Blog site. This site will discuss educational technology as a tool for student learning. Site Publisher Fred Sharpsteen email contact sharpstf@gmail.com

The Assessment Gap in Career and College Readiness — Whole Child Education
The Assessment Gap in Career and College Readiness — Whole Child Education
(Click link above to go to this article.)
This is an interesting article and we see this in our school system also with the students. Education needs to work on building on Critical Thinking Skills. It is no longer acceptable for students to just know information but they also need to be able to apply what they know. Also I think Dr. Schmoker brings up good points about if we want to close the achievement gap that we need student to be able to Read then Talk about what they read and then to be able to write about it in a meaningful way.
