The Summer School Nightmare is Coming!
The Summer School Nightmare is Coming! There are so many things that are desired in a students life, but the beginning of summer vacation is not on the list. While summer may mean sun and relaxation to most students, you have to obey your parents and use the summer months to continue your education. Is there anything more awful? Summer classes are not at all your idea of the perfect way to spend your vacation time, and we all know that in the long run, you will never be happy that you did. Most students do not attend summer sessions (lucky losers), which means you will have smaller class size great for those with claustrophobia (it is not a fear of Santa Claus, it is a fear of closed spaces). And to become more terrifying â" that means more individual attention and access to your teachers. Are you really so willing to get to know your professors and your campus better?

But there is a ray of light among the darkness shorter summer session! Summer classes last just 8 weeks, which means you may complete courses in half the time of a regular semester.

Less time surrounded by your wonderful classmates bulling you, less time in the school cafeteria, poisoning you with broccoli⦠Try to take classes on subjects you hate, because you will have more time for subjects you like during the regular sessions. The shorter summer session also means you can still enjoy a break before the fall semester begins. Summer courses maybe could help you graduate sooner. That is what THEY want you to believe! It was not enough getting up early for 9 months! No! You have to continue living that nightmare by taking classes, so you may earn credits towards the approximate 120 college units needed to graduate. That means that you will have fewer classes to take during the end of your college career â" less time spent with your friends, making jokes about your annoying teachers; not to mention seeing the boring faces of your tutors, instead of taking in the sun outside. And the final drop taking classes in the summer will keep you in the habit of attending class, studying and completing assignments. Now it is all clear! They think you dont have a social life! They may imagine that you were born for studying and moving forward to success! How could they! And the music? And the FUN? Keeping yourself in the educational habit could mean a more successful semester in the fall, or a total ruin for your usual lazy life.

The Benefits of Student-Led Learning in International Schools
The Benefits of Student-Led Learning in International Schools By Kathy DeadyFinally, international educational bodies are recognizing that teaching methods need to evolve drastically in response to changing demands and the constant progression of information technology. Recent education reforms in Europe and the Middle East have acknowledged the need for progressive innovation in this area, with a particular focus on the potential for student-lead learning to become a more significant component of the schooling experience. Student-lead learning is exactly as it sounds. Although teachers remain in the classroom to provide guidance on subject areas and to oversee quality, the control of the learning experience is handed over to the students. They are encouraged to teach themselves and their peers by undertaking their own study and research, then sharing their findings with others. A recent pilot study at a Avans University in the Netherlands, showed that handing the lead to students raises grades, increases attendance and enhances overall stude nt engagement. The experiment began with the finance department, whose lecturers had decided radical action was needed to improve a typical attendance rate of just 50% in each class, and the poor exam performance as a result.Students were divided into groups to present different topics and were given free reign to structure their classes as they wished. It was noted that some classes took a creative approach, using interesting ways of presenting information, some groups held practical sessions, for example, one based their session around an entertaining, popular Dutch game show format. The variety of lesson structure attracted more and more participants every week, with a renewed eagerness amongst the students to get involved during each session.The benefits of this model of learning in the international classroom may be especially of value. The diverse range of student backgrounds in attendance means the contribution potential is huge. Firstly, when students take the lead, theyâr e likely to concentrate on ideas around a given concept that interest them, both allowing them to engage with the topic from a more unique perspective than the typical curriculum focus, and allows for greater depth of understanding. Students tend to have a more natural connection with their classmates than a teacher, as they communicate with them in a way that is relevant, on a level that their generation and ability level will understand, by using appropriate language and actions.Subsequently, when students find learning more accessible, it encourages them to become more active learners and opens their minds to new ways of thinking. Sparks for discussion and debate, critical for enriching the learning experience. Presenting to a group of people builds personal confidence and develops essential oral communication skills which are ever more important in school and the workplace. Collaboration with classmates and taking the lead builds stronger relationships and respect between peers, which in turn improves student participation and boosts morale. It is surprising how well students perform and gain interest, given a little responsibility. Giving students to do things how they like has such a positive impact on their education.Even more good news is that incorporating a student-led approach in the classroom is as simple as it is effective. Students need to be set clear expectations from the start, but otherwise encouraged to use creativity and initiative in their presentations. Ask them to set goals for their project, consider ways they can involve their audience and evaluate their success afterwards. In the years to come, and with developing technology, we can no doubt expect to see students having much more autonomy over their day-to-day learning experience.For more information, ideas and resources on student-led learning, check out:Teach Hub: Student-Led Instruction StrategiesASCD: Student Directed Learning
5 Best High Schools in Dallas
5 Best High Schools in Dallas A solid high school education can lead to bright future, and many high schools in the Dallas area can provide just that. The Frog Tutoring team was curious to know which high schools were producing the most impressive results.After researching the best high schools in Dallas we now have the concrete proof just how great they are. For our first ranking in our school district series, weâll show you how we calculated the Texas Education Agencyâs metrics from the most recent report (2014) to rank each school that met their standards. While the TEA Index is pretty comprehensive, Frog Tutoring decided to evaluate a couple additional factors in the study we found. The following methodology was used in calculation:SAT Factor (24%): The SAT was taken into consideration for this ranking out of a possible score of 2400, since the most recent statistics are from 2014 when the SAT was in itâs old format.STAAR Expectations (22%): When taking the STAAR test into consideration, we look at the percentage of students who met or exceeded the expectations of the test in a given year.TEA Index (22%): We utilized the Texas Education Agencyâs 4 areas of academic excellence, which consist of Student Achievement, Student Progress, Closing Performance Gaps, and Postsecondary Readiness.AP Test Factor (18%): We wanted to include the percentage of students that made a score of at least a 3 or better on one or more AP test. We thought this was important to include in regards to college readiness.Graduation Rate (10%): Graduation rate was taken into consideration for the purposes of measuring student achievement and postsecondary readiness.Class Size (2%): Student-to-teacher ratio is important for an individualâs learning, so we took this into consideration.Online Reviews (2%): We have weighted each schoolâs popularity score based on Facebook reviews, Greatschools.org reviews, and K12.Niche.org reviews.If youâd like to see a more in-depth look at the TEAâs metrics for account ability standards, please click here. To determine a definitive ranking for the top high schools in Dallas, we combined these 7 factors to create one number to compare and contrast the success of each high school.1.

Please share in the comments any personal experience that you have had in the Dallas Independent School District!5 Best High Schools in DallasCreate your own infographicsNote: We wanted to take a second to expl ain our methodology, and how we arrived at factoring in each area of success for our rankings. First, we made an extensive spreadsheet (which you can take a look at for yourself here), and collected all of the data that we needed for our results. Then we converted each factor into a percentage and multiplied that number by the percentage of how much itâs worth in our ranking system. Letâs look at an example:Woodrow Wilson High Schoolâs TEA Index ranking is 235/400.235 / 400 = 58.75%Since this is 22% of our total, we used the percentage above to measure how much itâs worth in our ranking system. Which in this case is 22% of the total score.58.75 x .22 = 12.93%If youâd like to know more about this process, please contact our coordinator, Judith, at judith@frogtutoring.com.

What is a Torr in Chemistry?
What is a Torr in Chemistry?You may be wondering what the letter T means when you read about studies in 'What is a Torr in Chemistry?' Well, the answer to that question depends on who you ask. That is the first rule of nature.In my opinion, the answer to that question is no one person has been able to 'know' for sure that everyone else's choices are wrong. Everyone's choice has a chance of being right. The problem is most people's choices are not right. They are right only because they don't know better.This leaves some people having to pay for the knowledge they do have or feel that it is their right to buy all the scientific and educational products out there. My opinion is that this is silly. Some knowledge is necessary to make sense of the world around us. Even knowledge that leads to more knowledge is not wasted.I would not argue with those who believe in giving out scientific knowledge for free, as long as they use the knowledge as they see fit. If someone does not want to watc h me lecture, then they can do without my lectures.If someone does not want to listen to free information on the radio, then they can do without my listening information. Perhaps they will turn on their television. At least they will be hearing something that they like. At least they are being entertained.So, what has led to so many people misunderstanding the difference between science and religion? I think it is that too many people are taught things that are too hard for them to understand.Those who are in charge of the education experts should just get rid of textbooks. Or at least make them only available to those who have a passing grade in the subject matter. In the end, only those who are willing to study hard and commit themselves to mastering the subject matter are going to have any use for the textbook.
