Chaos
A Typical Day |
|
Here is a look
at an ITC classroom. Notice they have two blocks of time dedicated
to "Explorations". By allowing themselves reasonably large uninterrupted
blocks of time, the ITC teacher can arrange their schedule to fit the activity
they are focusing on. |
|
On
this day they are using the morning block for Novel Study, and the afternoon block for a
simulation. They could have easily used either block for Centers or perhaps
their technology
unit, Journey Inside:
The Computer.
