What do Students Do When the Teacher's Away?

Yesterday I had Instructional Rounds scheduled with a group of teachers involved in a special project. One of the 7th grade teachers I was scheduled to visit had a family emergency and wasn't able to be at school. I decided to go ahead and see what was going on since I already had the time set aside, and I have to tell you . . .

It was amazing.

The students are engaged in Project Based Learning and were finishing up their "Dream Big" project where they design their dream bedrooms in collaborative teams using Chromebooks. They must know furniture and building costs, calculate dimensions, and keep up with lots of spreadsheets and calculations, as well as use tools like MyDeco.com and Autodesk Homestyler to create their rooms in 2 and 3D.

Everywhere students were discussing projects and solving problems.

It was TRULY a WOW! moment.

Way to go Mrs. Brenda Schultz and class. We couldn't stop talking about you!

GIGABYTE X99 SOC Champion overclocking guide for uncore and memory overclocking

Our technical marketing guru, Sofos, has put together an advanced overclocking guide based around uncore and memory overclocking using the GIGABYTE X99 SOC Champion motherboard and chipset so make sure you check this out if you are on X99 platform and need a few pointers. 1. Adjust the OC switch the position 2 , otherwise you won’t have the voltages you need for Uncore and memories. 2. Voltages for Uncore In the CPU Advanced Voltages, when you have the OC switch in the 2 position, you will see some extra voltages. VL1 to VL6. You only have to change VL4, VL5 and VL6 as below. The voltage you have to change to get higher uncore is mostly the VL6. Almost all the CPUs can do 1.45V, most of the CPUs can do 1.5V but some CPUs can do even higher Voltage. There are few CPUs that boot with lower than 1.45V though. If the CPU can do high VL6 then probably it can do and high Uncore but not all the times. It depends on the CPU. In the OS through GTL all you have to do is to raise the VRING to ...

Infographics for Math (Like Data Fried)

I had the pleasure of speaking with some of my favorite math teachers today, and we had a "wouldn't it be cool if" moment, so here goes . . . Wouldn't it be cool if our students used Google's Public Data Explorer or the Pew Research Center  to create some great infographics* with Visual.ly ? Yeah, I think it WOULD be cool! If your students are doing projects like this, please comment and let us know how it's going. We'd love to see their work! *Infographics are a way to visualize data; they help viewers see the meaning behind statistics. How Do You Stack Up to a Hoarder? infographic
