one word. so little time....

* We don’t need better assessments; we need different assessments that help us understand students as learners and constructors of their own ongoing education instead of knowers of information and narrow skills.
* We don’t need better teachers; we need different teachers who see their roles as master learners first and content guides or experts second.
* We don’t need better schools; we need different schools that function as communities of inquiry and learning instead of delivery systems for a highly proscribed, traditional curriculum.

 

… the idea of a fully networked, progressive learning environment would for the vast majority constitute *different* and would require us... to redefine the future.

Welcome to Video for Learning, for the foreseeable future I will be curating resources to further the study and research, practice and discussion of video for learning.  Online video; its creation, use and re-use for all stages of learning, will be explored from both pedagogical and technical viewpoints.

 

Where they provide extra value and contexts I will include older links and resources as well as new and breaking developments. I look forward to comments and feedback.

 

I feel this superb painting by Wasfi Akab http://www.flickr.com/photos/wasfiakab/ provides an appropriate and thought provoking icon for this collection. (CC licence BY NC ND)
