Live Broadcast = Live Lessons



This past weekend I attempted a live broadcast.  Based on how easy it was the first two times I chose not to put in the prep time I had before.  (BIG MISTAKE) I knew better, but I thought I could do it.  I was wrong.  As a veteran of live theater i am well aware that many problems, sometimes the biggest problems don't show up until 15 - 30 minutes prior to going live. (if you are lucky).  such was the case Saturday.  I thought for sure that all was working fine.   nope.

With out listing all of the challenges, it is safe to say, we succeeded in airing a broad cast for one hour as planned.  It was not an error free broadcast as before. I ended up taking the live feed and editing it so that it was watchable.  Even with the edits there are times when the video lags.  The sound stays solid, so the information remains intact.

Check it out if you want, but keep your expectations low.  That way you are not disappointed.




Keep Learning

New Summer Challenges and Reflection

I have got to start doing more than one pos a year.  the last post I made was towards the end of summer school last years.  Well summer school just ended for me this year.  It has been a very strange year for all of us.  the district I work for offered free online summer school this year.  We used the online software package that had been adapted from our Credit Recovery program to fill the last grading period when all the schools closed for Covid-19.  Ideally a student would simply work their way through the first half of the online curriculum in the three weeks of summer school and the score would reflect their mastery of first semester skills.  I held two Zoom meetings a day to supplement instruction and offer specific tutoring. This was not exactly how it worked out. Makeup Credit English for freshmen is an interesting and challenging experience  face to face.  These are not the students who are self driven learners.  They are all ...

Subscribe, Watch and Comment

I am banking information videos so that I will be able to release one a week along with the daily Vlog entries I plan on doing.  This morning I videoed 15 new segments, including four parts of a new series focused on strategic goofing around with your students, "How to Be Cooler Than Your Students." Each installment will offer something you can do to deliberately make yourself more accessible to the students' minds and help them see you as the human being you are. I am gearing up for a busy year and I want to continue to bring quality information to you and other teachers.  Keep watching and commenting, please. The more viewers make comments, subscribe to the channel and watch entire videos the more easily the channel and videos will be found in search engines by other teachers.  Your participation helps others. Check out the current videos. Things That Work Enjoy the last few days of summer, and if you are already back at work, enjoy your year. ...

Less Than Seven Days

It's getting close!  Less than seven days before I start this insane project of one post a day. Not sure where this will go, but I am committed to this.  I am still wrestling with whether or not I will post every day or just record every day and post once a week. Time will tell.  I predict I will start posting every day and with in a month or so I will discover that recording every day and posting once a week will be easier. Check out the current videos. Things That Work Today I had the privilege of attending CHAMPs classroom management system sessions.  There are so many things I can use and will share with you as the year moves on.  Search up CHAMPs on line see what you can find.  It's worth a look. Either way, this is going to be one crazy ride. Remember, I enjoy learning with you, teaching with you and together we can take over the world. Chris
