http://mrsguzmansblog.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 30, 2009. To my surprise, creating a wiki through pbworks.com. Within minutes, I had a very basic wiki created and ready to go for immediate use in my classroom. To test drive it, I assigned my students generic usernames (a benefit of pbworks for teachers and students without email addresses). They went home, logged in and took off running on my wiki. Who knew? To check out my current wiki projects check out the following wikis that I have created:. Have a great Wiki-end! Looking Ahead: W...

"The TTB": Argument Against High-Stakes Testing
http://mrsguzmansblog.blogspot.com/2010/01/argument-against-high-stakes-testing.html
Thursday, January 28, 2010. Argument Against High-Stakes Testing. Unfortunately, states that use high-stakes testing, such as the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test or FCAT, as a means of assessing the proficiency level of a student are doing a disservice to all students since they are only receiving a snapshot of the student's actual academic knowledge. High-stakes testing does not portray a student's full scope of learning and knowledge and should be eliminated from the educational system. Wang, Lih...

Saturday, November 21, 2009. Week 12: Using and Reflections on Rubrics. This week, I have been grading a Greek Mythology Webquest project and as I was in the process of converting grades over, I caught myself doing percentages. So some kids passed and others failed! I also created an account with iRubric and shared it with fellow teachers at school who are fans of creating rubrics.
