Les nouvelles façons d’apprendre avec le digital | #Luxembourg #UniversityLuxembourg #ModernPedagogy #ModernLEARNing #ModernEDU  | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Avec les nouveaux modèles d’enseignement, tous les équilibres, tous les codes sont remis en cause. Au sens strict du terme, il n’y a plus d’enseignant, pas de cours, pas de programme, rien que des cas concrets à résoudre en trouvant soi-même la solution ou en s’associant à d’autres élèves. Cette pédagogie met l’accent sur le comportement, les capacités à travailler à plusieurs et à apprendre très vite en autonomie.

Pour Romain Martin, vice-recteur pour les affaires académiques de l’Université du Luxembourg, «la principale erreur consiste à se focaliser sur les technologies elles-mêmes. Il ne faut pas simplement regarder l’outil, mais comment ces outils sont utilisés.» Une désacralisation des technologies pourtant au cœur des enjeux, au profit d’une démarche pédagogique nouvelle. La tendance est ainsi à l’«adaptive learning».

Paradigm - Wikipedia | Time to make a #ParadigmShift in #EDUcation, ISN'T it?!!

Paradigm - Wikipedia

Kuhn's idea was, itself, revolutionary in its time. It caused a major change in the way that academics talk about science; and, so, it may be that it caused (or was part of) a "paradigm shift" in the history and sociology of science. However, Kuhn would not recognize such a paradigm shift.

In science and philosophy, a paradigm /ˈpærədm/ is a distinct set of concepts or thought patterns, including theories, research methods, postulates, and standards for what constitutes legitimate contributions to a field.

Le désir d’apprendre : un oublié de l’école… - Ecole changer de cap! 

Le désir d’apprendre : un oublié de l’école… - Ecole changer de cap!  | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Motiver ?


Depuis la fin du XIXème siècle, de nombreux de pédagogues ont avancé des propositions pour donner vie et force au désir d’apprendre. Alfred Binet, pédagogue et psychologue français, plus connu pour ses tests, écrivait par exemple en 1902 dans son livre « Les idées modernes sur les enfants » :

 : « Au lieu de lui expliquer des idées, il vaut mieux les lui faire trouver ; au lieu de lui donner des ordres, il vaut mieux lui laisser la spontanéité de ses actes, et n’intervenir que pour contrôler ». Il ajoutait plus loin : « Entrez dans une classe ; si vous voyez les élèves immobiles, écoutant sans peine un maître agité qui pérore dans sa chaire, ou encore vous voyez ces enfants, copier, écrire le cours que le maître leur dicte, dites-vous que c’est de la mauvaise pédagogie. J’aime mieux une classe où je verrais des enfants moins silencieux, plus bruyants mais occupés à faire le travail le plus modeste, pourvu que ce soit un travail où ils mettent un effort personnel, un travail qui est leur œuvre, qui exige un peu de réflexion, de jugement et de goût. »

Depuis la mise en place des écoles actives voici plus d’un siècle, l’activité justement et l’autonomie de l’élève, son plaisir de découvrir par lui-même, de se questionner et de chercher sont recommandés comme les meilleurs agents de la motivation. Les questions nourrissent la curiosité et entraînent la dynamique du « connaître ». Les attentes de l’enfant, ses projets jouent un rôle moteur, auquel contribuent fondamentalement la confiance dans ses compétence intellectuelles et l’estime de soi, que notre système scolaire met particulièrement à mal.

“The future of education is digital. We live in an increasingly digital world, where technology is a part of our lives in so many ways. Now more than ever, it is crucial that we incorporate digital technology into education. To prepare students for higher education and future jobs, we must ensure that they are familiar with technology. Administrators who want to prepare their K-12 school for the future of education should look at the ways they use technology in the classroom. Schools that are future-ready are those that blend technology with learning seamlessly and include technology in nearly every lesson.”

I just shared my thoughts on the future of education, but what do my peers think? To find out, we decided to produce an expert roundup on the topic of the future of education. We asked 106 education experts to answer one question: “What are your thoughts on the future of education?” In part 1 of this series, we will focus on the future of K-12.

Why Are Schools So Bad At Preparing Students For Modern Jobs? | #ModernEDU #ModernLEARNing #DigitalSkills #eSkills 

Why Are Schools So Bad At Preparing Students For Modern Jobs? | #ModernEDU #ModernLEARNing #DigitalSkills #eSkills  | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

If schools are supposed to be training the workers of the future, the growing consensus is that most of them are not doing a very good job of it.

 

In a trend that seems long overdue, technology-based companies are increasingly turning inward to bridge the gap between the skills they need employees have and the skills they’re actually graduating from college with.

 

In 8 Critical Skills For A Modern Education, we offered one view of what ‘modern workplace’ skills might look like, and have argued many times that true ’21st-century learning’ should change what work looks like all together.

 

(Nevermind that, in our estimation anyway, the purpose of school is not job training.)

 

Still, companies (for now, anyway) need human workers with certain skills that, increasingly, they just don’t have. It’s nearly 2018, and the concept of 21st-century skills is more than two decades old now.

What does a community manager do and what skills do they need? | #DigitalSkills #SocialMedia #ICT #Jobs

What does a community manager do and what skills do they need? | #DigitalSkills #SocialMedia #ICT #Jobs | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
If you work in social media, explaining your job can be a frustrating experience - especially to family members who probably assume that you just use Facebook all day. 

For Community Managers, in particular, there tends to be a lot of confusion over exactly what the role entails.

To clear things up, I thought I’d delve into the world of community management and find out why it’s becoming increasingly important for brands of all kinds.

Here’s a beginner’s guide.

What does a community manager do?

The role of a community manager is to act as the bridge between a brand and the community it is aiming to create (i.e. a loyal audience or group of core consumers connected by a similar interest). 

They should be the brand’s ambassador, engaging with potential customers and building relationships with existing ones. They are also focused on gauging sentiment around the brand, using social listening tools in order to monitor feedback and engagement.

Nonetheless, I think it’s becoming more and more clear that in modern classrooms, the role and perceived value of the teacher needs to change.

 

From a content and skills standpoint, why wouldn’t we expect teachers to connect their students to the smartest, most experienced experts they can find online? (Here’s a story of my own experience of doing that when I was in the classroom.)

 

And why wouldn’t we see the primary value of a classroom teacher to be a) understanding each individual child for who they are as a learner, and b) using that understanding to help them develop as even more powerful learners on their own?

Bigger issues:

#1. Unfairness is necessary. Giving second chances, for example, isn’t fair to those who perform on schedule and within expectation. But, not giving second chances is cruel.

#2. Fairness is merciless. Mercy is not getting what you deserve. In other words, mercy isn’t fair.

#3. Equal opportunity must include reward or lack of reward. Those who seize opportunities earn reward. Those who don’t seize opportunities don’t earn reward. It’s important to note that it’s not necessary to punish those who don’t seize opportunity.

Rewarding teams always includes some unfairness.

#4. Fairness – treating everyone the same – de-motivates high achievers and rewards low performers.

#5. Fairness, when it means everyone is treated the same, promotes inaction. If you can’t be do something for everyone then you can’t do it for anyone. The result is you don’t do much.

Where does machine learning fit in the education sector? | #ModernEDU  | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
Those who understand learning and work with young people know that in an uncertain world of rapid change we urgently need to be helping learners to take risks, to work in teams, to develop a greater understanding of the way systems and societies work, and to become more creative. Fundamentally, these things have been washed out of the system in favour of a ‘learn fact, repeat fact’ model.

 

To get the best out of this technology in the future, educators need to turn the current systems upside down.

 

In previous technology developments in education – such as multimedia, whiteboards or the internet – initially, most worried that they would upset the world they were used to and feared for their jobs. Only a few imagined how these technologies could change the world and make things better. In reality, new technologies are typically highjacked to inappropriately maintain the status quo and end up powering the exam sausage factory.

 

Moving forward into 2017, it is not the tech itself that needs to change. In most aspects of our lives, technology has made significant changes (for good and bad), but in education, particularly schools, there is still stubborn resistance.

To maximise the use of technology in the future, educators need to embrace these technologies that can change the world and make things better. Moving forward into 2017, it is not the technology itself that needs to change, but rather people's attitudes, particularly in education where there is still often stubborn resistance.
Belinda 's curator insight, June 12, 2017 12:44 AM
Perhaps I am being naive but if 21st Century Teachers are to be teaching 21st Century Students with 21st Century technology in a 21st Century Society isn't it time for a 21st Century Education System?  It seems that exams and assignments necessary to allocate a student a grade that is then provided to parents/caregivers is still what drives the education system.   Schools/Teachers plan their units based on the assessment items and teach students according to 'what is on the exam'. Is quantifying a child's knowledge for statistics as important as generating higher order thinking, creativity, cultural and ethical awareness and active citizenship?  Surely there is another way of reporting on a student's progression during their education?  And this isn't the School/Teachers fault - society has become so set on students being labelled as an 'A' student or B, C, D etc that this is what is expected.   

There is a high amount of anxiety in children from a very young age and I have seen students become quite confused and anxious when there is no 'correct answer' to a question.  Does this stem from crushing the imagination and being told that there is a certain way things must be done?  Why not nurture the creativity in children and we may have them building robots and inventing devices that can change the world by the time they are 10 years old.   

If teachers are to implement the technology to its full advantage then measuring a students' success, knowledge and how to apply this knowledge needs to change in line with the technology.  In such a dramatically changing world, 'assessing' a student hasn't changed for decades - they are still assessed by how much they can cram for an exam and then that information is often forgotten and not used again or when it is required it is re-learnt.  Lets get students creating and using their knowledge more and not be so subject specific - in the real world we use and apply a set of skills not just a subject. So why not start giving students 1-2 projects that encompass a holistic view of the subjects we teach (science, maths, english, humanities, social sciences, art, information technology) and have students use technology to implement the four C's - critical thinking and problem solving, communicating, collaboration, creativity and innovation. While we're at it why not report on the four C's and nothing else.

How to transform schools into Learning Organisations? | #ModernLEARNing #ModernEDU | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
Schools nowadays are required to learn faster than ever before in order to deal effectively with the growing pressures of a rapidly changing environment. Many schools however, look much the same today as they did a generation ago, and too many teachers are not developing the pedagogies and practices required to meet the diverse needs of 21st-century learners.

In response, a growing body of scholars, educators and policy makers around the world is making the case that schools should be re-conceptualised as “learning organisations” that can react more quickly to changing external environments, embrace innovations in internal organisation, and ultimately improve student outcomes.

 

Despite strong support for and the intuitive appeal of the school as a learning organisation, relatively little progress has been made in advancing the concept, either in research or practice. This lack of progress partly stems from a lack of clarity or common understanding of the school as learning organisation.

DRUMMONDVILLE | Un collège privé du Centre-du-Québec réinvente l’école en remplaçant les pupitres, les tableaux et les cours magistraux par des espaces modernes où les élèves apprennent à leur rythme, encadrés par des « coachs ».

Depuis septembre, le Collège Saint-Bernard de Drummondville a entrepris une révolution en éducation, si bien que des chercheurs se pencheront bientôt sur ce modèle.

Le Collège a détruit sept classes pour créer trois grands espaces qu’il appelle « zones innovantes ».


Des tables, des banquettes et des coussins remplacent les pupitres, alors que les vitres et les portes servent de tableaux pour écrire.

Quelque 180 élèves de 1re, 2e et 3e secondaire circulent librement, consultent leur téléphone, peuvent écouter leur musique et travaillent à leur rythme sur leur ordinateur.

Bringing Students Into Professional Development | #StudentVoice #ModernEDU | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
Professional development is evolving. Slowly but surely, schools and organizations are attempting to move away from the typical sit-and-get workshop and creating formats that promote problem solving and boost participant engagement. This has led to a rise in PD that makes educators the drivers of innovation.

This trend is awesome.

The problem: Participants are forced to make a lot of assumptions about their students because they’re not given a chance to include those students in the process.

The Future of Education is Unstructured Learning, and Here's Why

The Future of Education is Unstructured Learning, and Here's Why | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
Unstructured learning is an authentic real-world way of learning. That’s because the real world itself doesn’t have neat compartments or set disciplines for success. It demands adaptability, patience, and a willingness to learn and to use what is learned in the moment. Most of all, it requires us to take full responsibility for what we learn.

 

It’s time to play and to let go of rigid teaching in favour of unstructured learning. For this to happen, teachers have to foster trust in their students. They have to be willing to take a step back and put a little slack on the reins of traditional pedagogy. In short, we need to let things get a little messy. Ease into it—it’s a bold step and it will transform everything.

So what do you think?

Carlos Fosca's curator insight, December 26, 2017 8:36 AM

“El aprendizaje no estructurado ocurre cuando dejamos que los estudiantes jueguen sin una guía para que puedan sacar conclusiones por sí mismos. Sin embargo, todavía este tipo de aprendizaje requiere del apoyo del maestro, particularmente en las primeras etapas del proceso. Esto sucede en forma de diseño de escenarios, desarrollo de plantillas, formulación de preguntas orientadoras, etc. Al final, sin embargo, todos estos métodos están diseñados para apoyar y guiar a los estudiantes mientras caminan felices a través de lo desconocido”. (Global Digital Citizen Foundation, 2017)

Jerry Busone's curator insight, January 5, 2018 8:14 AM

Unstructured learning brings real to your workshops and classroom. Its not YOU the teacher doing all the presenting but its about guiding and facilitating people through real world problems and allowing them to innovate,apply principles ,models  and come to their own conclusions. Just like there are many ways to lead and sell there are many ways to learn ...

How to become a Modern Professional Learner – Modern Workplace Learning Magazine | #ModernLEARNing

How to become a Modern Professional Learner – Modern Workplace Learning Magazine | #ModernLEARNing | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

What has become very clear over the last 11 years is that many individuals are now using a wide selection of web-based resources, tools, and services to learn in new ways, and in doing so they have become highly independent continuous learners.

I call these individuals, Modern Professional Learners.

These Modern Professional Learners don’t just have a modern toolset for learning – i.e. they don’t just rely on educational or training tools, but they make use of a wide variety of everyday tools – they also have a new mindset about how and when learning happens for, at and through work, as well as a new learning skillset.

Modern Professionals learn for many different reasons – not just because they have to, to become competent and compliant in their organisation – but because they want to, for their own personal and professional reasons. Here are some of those reasons:

To acquire a new body of knowledge or a new skill

 

To solve a performance problem

 

To improve the work they currently do

 

To keep up to date with what’s happening in their industry or professional

 

To prepare for the future

 

For inspiration

 

To innovate (i.e. do or think differently)

 

For the joy of learning

Today, Kids Need To Learn More Than Facts, But To Solve Problems And Innovate

Today, Kids Need To Learn More Than Facts, But To Solve Problems And Innovate | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Traditionally, we went to school to attain knowledge. The smart kids knew that Columbus discovered America in 1492 and that the square root of 64 is eight. They studied diligently at home so that when the teacher asked a question they could shoot their hand up and be praised for their good work.

 

Today, however, teenagers carry far more information and computing power in their pockets than would ever fit in their heads. So the ability to retain knowledge and manipulate numbers with facility has become, to a large extent, outdated skills. So kids today need to learn how to understand systems and solve problems.

 

Fortunately, there are an increasing number of programs that are designed to do just that. At the college level, programs like Stanford's d.school teach design thinking and entrepreneurship classes have become standard in business school curriculums. More recently, a wide variety of secondary school level programs have begun to take hold and are giving students a leg up.

Kevin Morrison's curator insight, May 30, 2017 11:11 AM
One critical component of this that was not included it to know if the source of the facts they get is trustworthy. More and more what was once a trusted source of information leaves a lot out, or skews the facts making it difficult if not impossible get to the truth!
Barbara Goebel's curator insight, June 6, 2017 11:45 AM
Frankly, this has always been the ultimate goal in the sciences, but the way-stations of memorized facts and processes have led to standard assessments that are low rigor and less than useful in determining student understanding. Let's model the heck out of our world and figure out some solutions!
MrBieb's curator insight, June 16, 2017 5:05 AM

Toch dient er altijd een basis aan begrippen (woordenschat) kennis geleerd te worden alvorens überhaupt de berg aan informatie beklommen of uitgespit kan worden.Klassiek onderwijs blijft nodig.
