Classics Illustrated 098 The Red Badge of Courage

"Will I be a coward?" This is the haunting thought that torments every soldier as he enters his first battle. Into the fevered heat of the fight he advances. The roar of artillery deafens him ... the sight of his comrades falling all around him horrifies him. This is the gripping, stirring story of how one boy answered the question - either to stand and possibly die or to run away and later face his comrades and himself as a coward.

Teaching the Critical Vocabulary of the Common Core: 55 Words That Make or Break Student UnderstandingTeaching the Critical Vocabulary of the Common Core: 55 Words That Make or Break Student Understanding

Your students may recognize words like determine, analyze, and distinguish, but do they understand these words well enough to quickly and completely answer a standardized test question? For example, can they respond to a question that says "determine the point of view of John Adams in his 'Letter on Thomas Jefferson' and analyze how he distinguishes his position from an alternative approach articulated by Thomas Jefferson"? Students from kindergarten to 12th grade can learn to compare and contrast, to describe and explain, if they are taught these words explicitly.

Curriculum Models for the 21st Century: Using Learning Technologies in Higher Education

Changing student profiles and the increasing availability of mainstream and specialized learning technologies are stretching the traditional face-to-face models of teaching and learning in higher education. Institutions, too, are facing far-reaching systemic changes which are placing strains on existing resources and physical infrastructure and calling into question traditional ways of teaching through lectures and tutorials.
