"Ten Great Meeting Kickoff Videos on Education"
Please take the time to either view "Ten Great Meeting Kickoff Videos on Education" found on the Edutopia site or try and type the above title on youtube. You can view all ten at the above site or you are able just to view the ones of interest to you. I found value in each one, but #'s 8, 9 and 10 stood out.
This is my first experience being a part of the higher ed. of our teaching department @ CCC in placing students in their practicum experience. It's been an eye opener, exciting and challenging experience. Also during this month we are having 4 professional development sessions and all ten of these videos would provide a great opener for these meetings. I'm thankful for the technology that has made it possible for educators to share and influence higher level learning for the enhancement of all students. That has certainly been an area of concentration and frustration for myself.
I have found that higher level teacher ed. instructors and students need to be proactive and involved extensively with the community and school system so together our future teachers will have the experiences and skills needed to be prepared for the 21st Century Pre-K-12 instructor. About half of our students are in the outlining county schools so that is exciting as well and others want to experience Christian and private experiences, too.
Hope you find the time to view one or more of the videos.

ASCD Express 8.06 - Teaching Reading Comprehension Through Content Areas
ASCD Express 8.06 - Teaching Reading Comprehension Through Content Areas
The above youtube video shared a mini inservice training about what this research proved about expository (science) reading in this study, which reflected improved students' comprehension reading skills. We know 3rd-5th graders struggle most with comprehension skills and need explicit instruction how to comprehend a variety of text.
