I am a middle school science teacher in Long Beach, Ca and I am so excited to learn about this collection of “Liberating Genius” and Thrively. I have 185 students and the struggle is real to learn about my students in a meaningful and time productive way. Although we are a few weeks into the school year already, I am looking forward to implementing Thrively into my classroom with our new Chromebooks and working on letting students have an hour a week to work on a science related passion project. <br />In June of this year (2016) there was an article from EdWeek that mentioned a study that stated teens, in general, liked science but didn’t like science class itself. I’m hoping to use student input, student genius and technology to help gain back some of this love of the time we have together in class. Thank you for the great link to a new tool.<br />http://blogs.edweek.org/edweek/curriculum/2016/06/teens_like_science_not_science.html<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12319502212711690005noreply@blogger.com
