I work as a scientific advisor and part-time curriculum advisor. The newish report on improving US science education, "A Framework for K-12 Science Education," has called for putting more time on learning progressions, I am working on new biology textbooks to both foster learning progressions in biology from K through 12 and meet the developing common science standards. I currently use Adobe Acrobat Pro to annotate texts and provide reading assignments with guides throughout the text. The Adobe suite would be a fantastic resource to develop the textbooks I am working on. I also think Adobe itself should be responding to "A Framework ..." and updating its resources in response. All the best,

I use Adobe Products extensively with my Yearbook and Newspaper staff, and I use it pretty consistently whenever I am making any sort visual display. I also used it to make Read Posters for nearly 100% of our high school staff.

I am not using any Adobe products at the moment, besides Acrobat to read PDFs, but I used to use Photoshop Elements. I loved Elements for my 8th grade computer class, but we had a very old version and when we updated to Windows 7, it didn't work anymore. I would love the chance to be able to use Elements again and to explore the uses for Premier. Acrobat X Pro would be an awesome addition as I try to use less and less paper in my classroom!

These are really great tools for the younger students, and us too. Very powerful, simple to use, and the industry standard in many of the digital formats. The Adobe sites you link to are a great resource for ideas of ways to implement the programs. Thanks.

Hi Naomi,

Great overview and the Scoop.it resource is a nice platform for experimentation.

I went through my own research and practice of time-shifting lecture material...and posted an overview at TechwithIntent.com. The examples and philosophy behind the current movement might be valuable to others who are exploring.

2011-10-03T20:40:48.533-05:00

wow. I stumbled on this totally by accident. I'm an educator in a school district in Ohio. I'm trying to design a new field studies course for high schoolers emphasising technology and science. I want to re-invent education through this course. In the summer of 2012 we will travel to South Africa. If I get it approved, that is! Anyway, very cool to see this website. Going to share it with our tech folks. Thank you.

Perfect! i really appreciates this kind of blog. Education must be given priority at all times. Indeed, making new techniques in teaching will help the students to understand the lesson well.

Aahh, Naomi, as much as we left our mark on you, you certainly left your mark on us - once again! How lovely it was to meet you face-to-face, hear you speak and gain knowledge from you.
Thank you so much for your professionalism and sharing spirit.
Until next time...

Learning cannot happen only in classrooms. It is happening everywhere at any time. And for this one, it is really a helpful tool to do your work efficiently no matter where you are.

I was at the conference too and while I did not get to your session, I really agree with the observations in your blog. I contribute to a blog as well. I invite you to read and comment on the posts. It is called Excellence in Governance and School Leadership.
