Ethics, Morals, and Values Central in Leadership

Ethics, Morals, and Values Central in Leadership | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
Leadership experts in the K-12 field Jill Berkowicz and Ann Myers write about challenges and possibilities for administrators in the 21st century.

 

Education is an inherently moral matter. It is moral because people develop (or fail to develop) morally as well as physically, emotionally, and intellectually. It is moral because teaching--helping to shape other people's minds, sensibilities, and capabilities -raises deep questions of purpose, values, and responsibility.


It is moral because it involves the relationship between one generation and another, a relationship that helps determine the direction and quality of human life" (p. 152). Therein lies our uppermost responsibility. We must stay in touch with our conscience and allow it to inform our decisions.

Collaborative Teacher Efficacy vs Individual Efforts... | Teacher Learning Networks

Collaborative Teacher Efficacy vs Individual Efforts... | Teacher Learning Networks | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Listening to teachers talk about teaching in a collaborative learning space – three teachers and up to 90 students as opposed to one teacher and 30 students - and one is struck by how much ‘we’ there is in the teacher voice. There is a firm belief that as a team, they are able to shift student outcomes, raise achievement, and meet the needs of a diverse range of learners. Teachers often cite examples of the advantage of working and teaching together:

Jumping into the 21st Century: One Teacher’s Account | MindShift

Jumping into the 21st Century: One Teacher’s Account | MindShift | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

 

 

“I think all teachers must have times when they’re faced with the decision to continue on the safe road that they know, or radically depart on a way that they believe to be better, but the specific route and outcomes are unknown,” writes Shelley Wright on the excellent educators blog Voices from a Learning Revolution.

Gust MEES's insight:

 

In 2002 I did this very important step ALSO and I jumped in with 2 feet on something which nobody tried before in my country, teaching differently where my students were the center and not me! I taught mostly adults and seniors but also some teachers in primary school and primary school classes, it was a big funny experience (but lots of fears also...) BUT I faced IT and I had very good results!

 

My learners, even 60+ and 70+ learners learned ICT, even that I proudly could say that +/- 96% success was guaranteed, with traditional teaching it wouldn't have been possible...

 

My pioneer step was a SUCCESS! DO the same, YOU won't regret it! Check also the books I was reading, which helped me a lot:

The 6 Biggest Challenges Of Using Education Technology

The 6 Biggest Challenges Of Using Education Technology | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
A new report showcases some of the most important and difficult challenges of using education technology in today's classrooms.

 

The Challenges

Faculty training still does not acknowledge the fact that digital media literacy continues its rise in importance as a key skill in every discipline and profession.

 

Teachers needs to be learning how to use the technology themselves, too. Where formal training lacks, professional development needs to step in, and does in many cases. But integrating the how-to of technology with the how-to of teaching needs to happen.

Adaptability to Online Learning: Differences Across Types of Students and... | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
CCRC conducts research on community colleges and contributes to the development of practice and policy to promote success for all higher education students.

 

Abstract

Using a dataset containing nearly 500,000 courses taken by over 40,000 community and technical college students in Washington State, this study examines how well students adapt to the online environment in terms of their ability to persist and earn strong grades in online courses relative to their ability to do so in face-to-face courses.

 

While all types of students in the study suffered decrements in performance in online courses, some struggled more than others to adapt: males, younger students, Black students, and students with lower grade point averages. In particular, students struggled in subject areas such as English and social science, which was due in part to negative peer effects in these online courses.

The EU's 'Right To Be Forgotten': What Data Protections Are We Missing in the US? - Forbes

The EU's 'Right To Be Forgotten': What Data Protections Are We Missing in the US? - Forbes | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Speaking to the “do not track issue” regarding the data of social network profiles, Erin Egan, Facebook’s chief privacy officer, said she wasn’t sure that a “do not track” browser setting accurately reflected a user’s wish to not to be tracked online, particularly in cases where companies such as Facebook tracked users to enable the very feature that customizes the user experience on the popular social network. Egan added, “For Facebook, we have social plugins. We don’t use that data for an advertising purpose — we use it to personalize the data on those pages.


===> ” Egan maintains that until the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) sets an official standard, “it’s really hard for companies like us.” More browser platforms may push ahead with a standard of their own, implementing settings that will enable expanded user control to block cookies, such as Internet Explorer’s default do not track setting. <===
