summary by Edsurge

" It's a common question: what are the schools of the future going to look like? Gabrielle Santa Donato, Director of Curiosity at The Future Project, hopes to see "lab-like learning zones where process rules over product, mastery over performance, growth mindset over IQ, and cross-disciplinary design over siloed subjects." Check out her thoughts on how real education innovation ought to help students unleash their learning potentials through exploring that exhilarating chaos between the known and unknown."

Jim Lerman's insight:

Here is someone deeply engrossed in trying to move schools of today into the future, and struggling with the idea set that comes with the task. Great stuff!

Roundtable on Personalised Learning (through the BCASCD)

Roundtable on Personalised Learning (through the BCASCD) | :: The 4th Era :: | Scoop.it

"On Thursday, November 3rd, 2011, members of the Metro Vancouver education community from a range of perspectives met to address the big questions around Personalised Learning. As an organization, BCASCD promotes the exemplary practices in curriculum and develops leadership and professional capacity for the success of all learners. As such, a roundtable on Personalised Learning was held. The executive invited educators from a range of districts and on various pathways of their careers in education, including student-teachers, classroom teachers, district support teachers, vice-principals, principals, district principals, post-secondary teacher-educators, and senior administrators.

 

Four areas around Personalised Learning were discussed, with the intent of creating a working document demonstrating what Personalised Learning may look like at a class, school, district and provincial level."

 

These areas were:

> Stakeholders:  Who are they?  What are their needs?

> Competencies/skills/knowledge: What are the ‘must-haves’? What are the ‘would-like-to-haves’?

> Assessment/Reporting: How does Personalised Learning change reporting schedules, assessments (AFL) and student engagement;

> Structures: What are the environmental/space/time requirements.

 

Read about what ideas emerged from this roundtable discussion as British Columbia embarks on implementing personalised learning in their province.
