helping Christopher, visiting Peter's parents, back soon
I love taking shots of birds in flight and swallows are especially challenging as they are speedy and change direction constantly. Years ago on Flickr, l saw a photo of a swallow in flight and that showed me that it could be done given a lot of practice
Birds leave when you to get too close, but I wanted a shot that had little cropping. So, I added a teleconverter making my lens 560mm so I could be further away. I also hid in the shadow of a low wall so I wouldn’t be as visible.
It was a bright day, so I was able to change my aperture to f/10 to get more of the shot in focus and to increase my shutter speed to 1/3200 trying to decrease motion blur. Fortunately, I was able to keep my ISO at 800 so my shot would not have too much noise. I set my camera on burst mode and waited until something happened. Then I got lucky!

"The real losers of the war are always the parents, wives, mothers"
quote by Käthe Kollwitz
The most important German cemetery from the First World War lies in the village of Vladslo, north of Ypres and close to the city of Diksmuide. In one of the few oak-tree woods in the area lie hundreds of square black stones with the names of the buried soldiers. The peace treaty of Versailles denied them the use of white stone.
The stones lie in rigid lines in the grass under the trees. No flowers decorate the burial grounds.
Each stone carries twenty names , twenty rank specifications, twenty death dates.
A young war volunteer Peter Kollwitz is buried there. When he was killed in October 1914, he is just eighteen. Deeply affected by the death of her son makes Käthe Kollwitz the world famous expressionist sculpture The Grieving Parents.
At the back of the cemetery stands the Käthe Kollwitz sculpture ' The Mourning Parents'.
This German sculptress made the work of art as a remembrance monument for her son Peter who lies buried on this cemetery.
The faces of both the man and the woman resemble the face of Käthe and her husband. The eyes of the father-figure look towards the ninth stone in front of him on which the name of their son Peter is written.
A hundred years ago... time for reconciliation, I feel.
Lest we forgive we will never move on...
Thank you for your visit, M, (*_*)

A couple hundred makers, teachers and parents gathered at the 2nd Maker Educator Convening, held May 17 - 18, 2016, at The Crucible in Oakland, CA. This was my first conference as a maker art teacher, and it was a great way to connect with other educators and learn from each other.
We started with a visit of The Crucible, an amazing arts school that offers youth and adult classes in glass blowing, woodworking, jewelry, welding and more -- a great model for planning our own makerspaces ( thecrucible.org/ ) .
We then watched and discussed 'Most Likely to Succeed', an excellent documentary on education in the 21st century ( www.mltsfilm.org/ ). It shows examples of hands-on, project-based, student-driven and collaborative learning -- and how this new approach can help students find a sense of purpose and develop invaluable 'soft skills', not just technical skills.
The morning keynote by Nichole Pinkard was also very inspiring, as she presented her findings from the Digital Youth Network in Chicago, and led a discussion about deepening the impact of maker education by bridging learning frameworks.
We then got our hands dirty to map our maker educator network, using blinking LEDs, post-it notes and pipe cleaners to represent our various schools and makerspaces on a U.S. map -- which showed clearly that a majority of participants came from California.
We spent the rest of the day hearing lightning talks about maker ed, brainstorming ideas, sharing best practices and starting new collaborations. A very productive event!
Many thanks to the team at MakerEd.org for organizing this gathering. They do a fine job connecting teachers and resources, both at events like these and online: makered.org/
Parent’s Login
The article is about Parent’s login but the article is for Teachers. Yes! Continue reading to know why.
Oh my Busy World! Educated parents but have no time to know how their kid’s education is shaping up.
How often parent teacher’s meet are held at schools and ‘how many parents really turn up to the meetings’ and how many hang up on calls with teachers giving excuses? But we really care about future of the growing buds. It’s important that every parent should know not only their kids academic performance but also when they win a first prize in running race or a drawing competition.
World was created from BIG BANG they said but see now the world runs on small phones! It’s the technology that’s ruling the world. People getting socialized, working on smart techs and trying new things have no time for traditional Parents Teacher’s meeting.
Modern parents need Modern monitoring methods. Don’t just make techno schools and try making students smarter. Make parents aware too.
Wake up, Schools don’t you feel it’s important to connect with the parents even if they’re busy? Oh! Yes it is.
With this concern we decided to connect Teachers and parents in the easiest way possible. MarvelSoft’s School Admin connects schools and parents online with Parent Login integrated with the software.
So how does it help parents and Schools?
We’ve desktop version of parent’s login app and also provide android application. In android application, the app is exclusively made available on the google play store to the parents of the kids studying in your school.
Parents are given a username and password to login into the software. The username and password is generated by the software for every student and the login details can be sent to the parents via SMS or mail from the School Admin itself.
Parents can use their respective username and password and login into the parent’s application to view student’s school activities and academic performance.
Not just the performance, a working mother can view their son’s school dairy on the way coming back home and plan for it before hand. A hard working dad can view his daughter’s Cultural event dates scheduled to free from work.
With the easy and beautiful User Interface, it’s quick and easy for the parents to monitor their kids even in their busy schedule.
