945627 Making space for new technology in school 3 By JEFFREY BESSEN GLEN COVE HERALD GAZETTE — November 30, 2017 [email protected]

Part two in the series “Educating the 21st Century Child.”

Only a decade or so ago, classroom desks were lined up in neat rows. Students faced the blackboard or whiteboard. Their ability to talk to one another and share — particularly when doing so on computers — was limited. All that was so 20th century, and all of it is rapidly changing. Educators are rethinking not only how they teach, but the very spaces they teach in as well. If students are to collaborate, then they must work in classrooms that foster communication. So, in many schools, the neat rows are out, and “collab- orative spaces,” in which students can share in small groups, are in. Teachers are no longer like conductors, stuck at the front of the classroom, direct- ing the conversation, or lecturing old- school-style. Rather, they have become more like guides, school officials say. And Tyler Marko/Herald central to their work is technology. Wel- come to the 21st century classroom. LEE ARAOZ, LAWRENCE High School’s instructional technology coordinator, far left, and Stephanie Rubenfeld, an elementary- and mid- dle-school technology teacher, introduced Lawrence teachers to web-based applications in September. Keeping educators up to date Full STEAM ahead on the latest technology is key in an ever-changing world, school officials say.

HOW DID A NATIONALLY RANKED GLEN COVE HERALD GAZETTE — November 30, 2017 HEART HOSPITAL BECOME A NATIONALLY RANKED HOSPITAL FOR GASTROENTEROLOGY & GI SURGERY?

It starts with the doctors. Our doctors have long been in the forefront of diagnosing and treating gastrointestinal diseases.

GAITLEY GLEN COVE HERALD GAZETTE — November 30, 2017 “Come Talk To Me” STEVENSON-MATHEWS THANK YOU GLEN COVE Paid for by Friends of Gaitley While I lost my bid to be your city councilman by 35 votes, I could not be more proud of how hard everyone worked. Thank you for your commitment, your belief in our vision, and for taking us so far. Close is not winning, but we can all be proud of not only having worked so hard to support the campaign and in having made significant strides, but also in having approached the campaign in a way that supported the Team Tenke slate and our next mayor. At the end of the day, it’s about community and working together to build from strength to strength. We did not win this one, but we came really close and…….we are not done! Congratulations to those who won their seats. I was so very honored to have run on the Team Tenke ticket, and, I especially look forward to calling Councilman Tim Tenke by his new title beginning in January - Mayor of Glen Cove!
