Exploring education: Project Based Learning – meaningful action … or merely activity?

Exploring education: Project Based Learning – meaningful action … or merely activity? | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

The world is awash with people and groups wishing to reform education.  Some want to go “back to basics” while others want to go “forward to the future”.       

 

Amongst the more progressive groups there is a surprising degree of similarity in what they propose. Thus, the RSA “Opening Minds” project in the UK or the US based P21 or the Apple Classroom of Tomorrow Today all have a high degree of overlap - indeed a Venn diagram of their views would be almost a single circle.

Seth's Blog: Us vs. us

Seth's Blog: Us vs. us | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

 

Online communities are quick to form, but they're just as quick to fade, to become less open and to become less trusting because sometimes we have a cultural orientation toward taking, not giving. We forget to feed the network first, to take care of those we care about.

 

Here's a possible standard: is it open, fair and good for others? If it's not, the community asks that you take your selfish antics somewhere else.

 

Call me naive, but I think it's possible (and likely) that the digital tribes we're forming are going to actually change things for the better.

 

          ===> But not until we embrace the fact that we are us.<===

Taking the long way around: circular routes to learning

Taking the long way around: circular routes to learning | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Organisations need to allow a certain amount of wandering around the corridors, through the accumulated knowledge, we need to mix things up a bit, create cross channel communities and be unafraid to cross boundaries. Creativity is a fire that needs fuel: relationships, knowledge, technologies, resources, we have to feed it to feel the heat.

 

We should welcome the curious, encourage adventure and introduce just a little uncertainty into the process of learning. You never know what it will turn up.

Social media isn’t ‘new’ anymore,” said teacher and education consultant Dan Haesler on his blog. “We can’t continue pretending that it is, and using this as an excuse for not addressing it.

The Importance Of Intrinsic Motivation In Transforming Learning

 

Giving teachers and students as much autonomy as possible in choosing their own curricular material is another way that we can improve student engagement.

 

Only students who are intrinsically motivated to be engaged in school will end up truly challenged, enriched, energized and ultimately fulfilled by their experience. Yes it’s an ideal, but it’s worth keeping in mind.

¿Qué motiva a los estudiantes a comprometerse en la escuela?

Jason Beal's curator insight, May 22, 2013 12:20 PM

Many students are not motivated in the right way. if asked, they would say they go to school because everyone else does. It is also less effective for a student to say they have to do well to get on to the next level o their education. Giving more grades than feedback can turn"marks" into currency. Extrinisic motivation doesn't get students truly involved in their learning.Only initrinsically motivated students can truly be challenged in school.

The Business of Education

The Business of Education | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

 




===> Professional development is a necessary component of the teaching profession. It must be part of every teacher’s workweek. It needs to be prioritized, funded and supported with time. <===









===> Too many educators have no idea how much they do not know about their own profession. This will require a good amount of directed professional development, which is never popular with educators. <===


Technology has changed things and continues to do so at an incredible rate of speed. If educators are to be effective they must be relevant. If harnessed, technology can be used to our advantage with proper training. If ignored, or not taken seriously by the entire profession, it could very well make educators irrelevant.


Our education system is not too big to fail.

Don't give up... You know that idea you shared with your colleagues...  You were so excited to share the idea and you spent plenty of time trying to figure out the best way to get this information out to your colleagues. You tried to put yourself in their shoes so you could make this idea relevant and applicable to what they were doing. You even found a couple additional resources to complement the idea you were enthusiastic about sharing. You envisioned their response and knew they would be greatly appreciative of your time and effort to share an idea you think would benefit their practice, and most importantly, their students.

Every day we all see, hear or think of things we need to remember. Usually we grab a pad of sticky-notes, scribble a reminder and put it on the desk, the fridge or the relevant page of a magazine.


Unfortunately, if you’re like me you probably often discover that the desk, fridge or magazine wasn’t such a clever place to leave the note after all...it’s rarely where you need it when you need it.
