Education Is A System; Teaching Is An Action; Learning Is A Process

Education Is A System; Teaching Is An Action; Learning Is A Process | E-Learning-Inclusivo (Mashup) | Scoop.it
Education is a system; teaching is an action; learning is a process.

As such, education requires a self-aware and self-correcting set of processes that respond to changes circumstances at every level—culture, literacy, curriculum, assessment, instruction, and so on. When bullying becomes a pastime. When kids can access libraries on their smartphones.

When technology affords access to digital communities that can make all the difference. Where are education’s correcting factors? New standards and standardized test forms every decade? Pay-for-test-performance?

Education is in the habit of changing for political and imagery and spectacle, when it should inherently bleach politics altogether.

The result of any system of education should be full transparency so that it offers itself up selflessly to the people and communities it serves.

And teaching? It requires human beings who can model the kind of humility and struggle and self-delete that is so often not sustainable for the teachers themselves.

As for the students, it requires an awkward and ironic vulnerability on the part of the learner that makes railing against privilege and imbalance all but impossible until they get to college and see what comes at the end of the conveyor belt and get disillusioned fast.

But those are just the pieces. As a whole, more than anything else, education requires citizenship and democracy—people contributing to and caring for the communities they depend on, and then being accountable for the health of those communities through a shared struggle and affection for one another.

Students will not appreciate feedback until they learn how to use it, says THE contributor

Students will not appreciate feedback until they learn how to use it, says THE contributor | E-Learning-Inclusivo (Mashup) | Scoop.it

"We need a cultural shift in how we provide comments on student work, say Naomi Winstone and Robert Nash"


Summary from Academica Top Ten - Friday, October 7, 2016:


"Students will not appreciate feedback until they learn how to use it, says THE contributor 


“What students do with expert advice is at least as important as the advice itself,” write Naomi Winstone and Robert Nash for Times Higher Education. The authors allude to UK data showing that students are less satisfied with the feedback they receive from instructors than they are with any other aspect of PSE. Yet the authors argue that no amount of feedback would ever be enough to solve this issue, because the only way to address it is to train students on how to properly incorporate and learn from feedback, which requires resilience and flexibility. “To really achieve this goal properly, we need a cultural shift in higher education,” the authors conclude. “Moving away from the notion of feedback simply as something we give away to students and towards one that sees it as a two-way street, with shared responsibilities and expectations.”"

Why Cold-Calling on Students Works

Why Cold-Calling on Students Works | E-Learning-Inclusivo (Mashup) | Scoop.it

"It’s doesn’t have to be an antagonistic demand to prove themselves, it can be a warm invitation to contribute."


Summary from Academica Top Ten - Friday, August 26, 2016:


"Why professors should “cold call” on students to foster participation “In an ideal world, we wouldn’t need to call on students to get them to participate,” writes David Gooblar for Chronicle Vitae, but the reality is that professors will often have to call on students at random to solicit the desired level of participation. Critics of such “cold calling” might argue that it puts students on the spot and increases anxiety. Yet Gooblar cites research and personal experience that demonstrate that the practice offers a net positive for classrooms by helping students learn to speak up as a matter of habit."

Points for participation? It’s not so easy for introverts | University Affairs

Points for participation? It’s not so easy for introverts | University Affairs | E-Learning-Inclusivo (Mashup) | Scoop.it

“I’ve never liked being called on,” says one student. “It feels like you’re under a microscope.”


Summary from Academica top Ten - Wednesday, April 20, 2016:


"Offering participation points in the classroom favours extroverts Introverted students experience aspects of education in a very different way than their extroverted peers, according to Emma Tranter. The author examines the way that factors like in-class participation can accidentally disadvantage introverted students, and how a misunderstanding of shyness or introversion can cause instructors to incorrectly evaluate their students’ understanding of the material. “I think one of the big problems we have is that we don’t ask both our extroverted and our introverted students to push themselves beyond their comfort zone,” says Montclair University Associate Professor Emily Klein, “we ask introverted students to do it all the time, but we never ask extroverted students to do it.”"

How to address student grade challenges before they happen

How to address student grade challenges before they happen | E-Learning-Inclusivo (Mashup) | Scoop.it

"No one should teach in fear of the prospect of a wronged and vengeful student."


Summary from Academica Top Ten - Friday, January 6, 2017


"How to address student grade challenges before they happen


 Instructors can help address grade challenges by students before they happen if they follow a few basic steps, writes David Gooblar for Chronicle Vitae. The first step, the author argues, is to be as clear as possible about your expectations and grading policies in your syllabi. The second is to clarify your grading policies throughout a semester, giving a breakdown of grading criteria at the beginning of each new assignment. The author adds that it is also crucial to create space for the appropriate discussion of grades, explain your reasoning for particular grades, and stand your ground while remaining patient with students who challenge their grades.

What does it Mean to be Information-Literate Today? - Learning and the Brain blog

What does it Mean to be Information-Literate Today? - Learning and the Brain blog | E-Learning-Inclusivo (Mashup) | Scoop.it
Nowadays, not only is information everywhere, it is also literally at our fingertips. I can ask my phone how many calories are in my food, self-diagnose my headache on a medical website, look up a research article on a database, or search for a tutorial about my favorite hobby on social media. Thanks to technology, I can retrieve a massive amount of information that I otherwise would never have had easy access to. It’s like living in a candy store…of information.

Not a bad thing, right?

But what happens if the information I look at is not credible? What happens if I am misled by false information or misrepresented facts?

Today, knowing how to distinguish between reliable and unreliable information has become a necessary skill.

Here Are Some of The Best Presentations on Education ~ Educational Technology and Mobile Learning

Here Are Some of The Best Presentations on Education ~ Educational Technology and Mobile Learning | E-Learning-Inclusivo (Mashup) | Scoop.it

A few days ago we reviewed Bibblio which is a search platform that allows you to discover, collect and curate the best free learning materials on the web in any format (videos, podcasts, web links, presentations and many more). It also lets you organize all of your curated materials into one single homepage that you can annotate and personalize before sharing it with your peers and students.

One of the great features of Bibblio is that you can access and follow content other educators have curated. There are actually several collections out there created by teachers  featuring a wealth of educational content. The collection we are sharing with you below is compiled by Best of Slideshare and contains some of the best slides about education. From the 70+ presentations in this collection, we selected what we think are the 8 most pertinent ones.
