Integrating Art and Social Studies by Bill Genereux(June 29,2011)

In,Integrating Art and Social Studies, good education is being taught beyond traditional boundaries. So many teachers are stressed over standards and outcomes. However, a Social Studies teacher and Art teacher decides to collaborate together. It seems natural for both subjects to be paired together since their Humanities. It would be more exciting to teach if two unrelated subjects were paired together. Finally, the teacher leaves present teachers and future teachers with this, try teaching two different subjects. Next, make sure they(teachers) have a little interest in the subjects, then create an integrated lesson. I love this idea because it makes the teacher really think. They can't rely on the standards the School Board assigns to them. It's all about their knowledge of the subject and how they connect them both.

Area Superintendent Advocates Social Networks

In,Area Superintendent Advocates Social Networks, Dr.Hall seems to really enjoy Facebook and Twitter. He uses it for promoting the school system and keeping people informed. He is highly appreciated for he's approachable and willing to answer any question about the school. Instead of a parent contacting him through e-mail or letter, they simply write him on these social networks and he responds instantly. Now, school principals and teachers that utilize Twitter and Facebook have a tremendous advantage over other districts. This is an awesome way for educators to utilize the web. With professional behavior, adults can model the correct way to use social networks.
