    1. to enable Problem-Based Learning (PBL).

      I'd like to know more about PBL and what exactly it entails!

    2. Understanding by Design (Backward Design)

      This model is most interesting to me because it requires more thinking and problem solving since you have your results in mind and are trying to design the process to get those results.

      It reminds me of an exercise I would often use with my pupils to help them develop critical thinking skills: solving a maze, but if it is too difficult (e.g. a circular maze), they should start at the END and work their way backwards to the beginning.

    4. Five Ways Technology in the Classroom is Changing Education

    6. Buddy-up an English language learner (ELL) with another student.

      I really like this idea because not only does it help the ELL student with learning some English, but it exposes the other student to people with different languages than them and helps them to develop empathy for people like that throughout daily life.

    7. noise

      For some reason, this specific learning environment adjustment really speaks to me at this moment in time.

      In all seriousness, I find that I study best with music playing and blocking out background noise, so I am sure that many others prefer complete silence or other forms of noise. The physical aspects of the learning environment can definitely be important for students.
