The article first talks about maintaining balance and how that is impossible without a clear defined vision for the teachers. Teachers should walk into class everyday with a clear and single-mined focus on making a different for the kids. We should also motivate students in positives way but not negative ways. We should also practice tested skills on a non-test prep way. It talks about the 5 tips.
You can use these tips over test prep because they can be in your lessons plans. The five test prep questions include: Problem solve collaboratively,make it game, get kids moving, use individual dry erase boards, screencast. All of these tips can apply to education because now in the school system most likely the students will have screencast for iPads. The individual dry erase boards are a huge help because the students can use they while you are teaching them. Kids love games so before test you can make a game for the whole class for review.
