This week, during our new Monday night time, we discussed Character Education. As educators, we recognize the importance of teaching values but sometimes feel we are fighting an uphill battle. How do we keep it going?

2011-11-21 20:08:52 [Message] mariak -> EdTechTalk: Can students just get it from the school environment.
2011-11-21 20:09:06 [Message] Lisa Parisi -> EdTechTalk: Well, Cheri, my age does show at times. LOL
2011-11-21 20:09:34 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: I think it's much better for it to be taught situationally rather than using a curriculum
2011-11-21 20:09:41 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: I agree with you mariak
2011-11-21 20:10:06 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: I think the bucket concept is a great way to teach it! Very visual reminder!

2011-11-21 20:17:30 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: if kids aren't taught at home it's even more important that they be "taught" at school--these are really important values to learn

2011-11-21 20:19:56 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: wht a great point Maria! it has to be explicitly taught. They don't learn it just by seeing it in action.
2011-11-21 20:20:27 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: modeling is important but it isn't the same as teaching them

2011-11-21 20:28:59 [Message] Lisa Parisi -> EdTechTalk: Great scene in the book The Kid in the Red Jacket to get kids to understand apology of action.
2011-11-21 20:29:29 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: I love that article, Maria. Action is required and not just saying "sorry"
2011-11-21 20:29:53 [Message] Cheri T -> EdTechTalk: If it helps, Lisa, I'm having to teach undergrad students some of the same lessons: how to address people in emails, how to present their work in the course wiki, how to collaborate, how not to be a distraction to others in class, etc.

2011-11-21 20:32:24 [Message] Scott Shelhart (@kd9sr) -> EdTechTalk: We have to remember that using the internet for colaboratin is a new concept for many people. There is a large population that is just coming out of a self-imposed digital isolation. Kids included
2011-11-21 20:32:39 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: I really like the concept of Greater Than Yourselves by Steve Farber. He did a co-keynote with Angela for our virtual conference last April. It's a concept that is valuable for both kids and adults. Try to do something that makes others "great then yourself"
2011-11-21 20:33:17 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: http://azjd.wordpress.com/2011/04/30/greater-than-yourself-challenge/
2011-11-21 20:33:20 [Message] Sheila -> EdTechTalk: I think we use the term 'respect' but the idea of it changes as they get older and what it looks like changes. Do we address that?
2011-11-21 20:33:36 [Message] Lisa Parisi -> EdTechTalk: Why does it change, Sheila?

2011-11-21 20:34:38 [Message] Sheila -> EdTechTalk: What it looks like and sounds like. Gets more abstract but not sure all the kids can understand it at the same level.
2011-11-21 20:35:25 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: Having just come off from the week-long presentations at the Global Ed Conference I think if we had our kids make more global connections they might begin to think of others in a different way--possibly some who have less than they have so they can begin to relate to that
2011-11-21 20:35:26 [Message] Sheila -> EdTechTalk: I expect more but not sure I share what I mean with the kids.
2011-11-21 20:35:41 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: that is a great description Maria!

2011-11-21 20:36:52 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: thanks for sharing your links! I love the concept of teaching life lessons through literature. Makes it easier for kids to talk about them.
2011-11-21 20:37:51 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: that's a great way to think of it Maria! That will help parents to be more aware of those behaviors in themselves too :-)

2011-11-21 20:40:59 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: yes it does @Cheri! Wish you would call in and talk about that
2011-11-21 20:41:03 [Message] Cheri T -> EdTechTalk: How should we be acting toward one another - what does a good teacher do - how do they act
2011-11-21 20:41:31 [Message] Cheri T -> EdTechTalk: Peggy, I have a doc student who will be looking at dispositions for her dissertation
2011-11-21 20:41:32 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: @Scott I've heard that yoga balls are great in the classroom :-) That's a different concept that kush balls though.

2011-11-21 20:47:02 [Message] Scott Shelhart (@kd9sr) -> EdTechTalk: Didn't the kids in Ginger Lewman's school take care of all of the custodial duties?

2011-11-21 20:49:04 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: it's true that different cultures may have different values but don't you think all cultures value respect?
2011-11-21 20:49:17 [Message] Cheri T -> EdTechTalk: Lisa, you have to help them learn our culture so that they are successful.
2011-11-21 20:49:41 [Message] Lisa Parisi -> EdTechTalk: I agree, Cheri, which is why I teach the...here in America...
2011-11-21 20:49:48 [Message] Cheri T -> EdTechTalk: I see the taking responsibility issue is non-age related
2011-11-21 20:49:50 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: I remember you talking about your classroom norms Sheila! That is a great way to do it!
2011-11-21 20:50:18 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: I agree Cheri! We start teaching toddlers about taking responsibility for putting their toys away and cleaning up their messes.

2011-11-21 20:50:43 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: the kids in Angela's presentation for the Sandbox Manifesto talk about it
2011-11-21 20:50:50 [Message] Lisa Parisi -> EdTechTalk: I have kids who tell me the maid cleans up after them.
2011-11-21 20:50:58 [Message] Lisa Parisi -> EdTechTalk: I tell them we have no maid in school.
2011-11-21 20:51:11 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: even if parents don't all teach it, many do and teachers must!
2011-11-21 20:51:24 [Message] Cheri T -> EdTechTalk: Lisa, you are not their maid
2011-11-21 20:51:35 [Message] Cheri T -> EdTechTalk: for sure
2011-11-21 20:51:46 [Message] Scott Shelhart (@kd9sr) -> EdTechTalk: The unwritten curriculum is often the most important.
2011-11-21 20:51:47 [Message] Cheri T -> EdTechTalk: it's exhausting to deal with all that

2011-11-21 20:56:26 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: another Sandbox Manifesto tenet: Take it to the community. If students aren't following the norms they agreed to they need to discuss it again and decide if it's important or not
2011-11-21 20:57:00 [Message] mariak -> EdTechTalk: Where are you getting these tenets, Peggy. I think I missed something.
2011-11-21 20:57:16 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: talking isn't always the best way to communicate it--they need to experience it
2011-11-21 20:57:16 [Message] Scott Shelhart (@kd9sr) -> EdTechTalk: A universal [i]anything[/i] fits [i]nothing[/i] well.
2011-11-21 20:57:35 [Message] Cheri T -> EdTechTalk: How did I already know that, Lisa
2011-11-21 20:57:37 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: those are the tenets from Angela Maiers' pre-conference keynote for K12 Online
2011-11-21 20:57:44 [Message] Lisa Parisi -> EdTechTalk: Scott...Universal Design is a bit different.

2011-11-21 20:59:05 [Message] Lisa Parisi -> EdTechTalk: Yes, Scott, it's true.
2011-11-21 20:59:06 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: that's her blog post where she also shares the slideshare with her presentation slides. but her videos of kids playing in the sandbox are priceless!
2011-11-21 20:59:50 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: yes, universal design doesn't mean the same thing for everyone but it says you need to make sure no kids are left out
2011-11-21 21:00:40 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: that's funny Lisa!
2011-11-21 21:01:31 [Message] PeggyG -> EdTechTalk: whew!!! @Lisa I was afraid you were thinking it wasn't important to teach about character education
