"Most of our students love learning and creating...I was excited to discover the creativity and imagination taking place on Vine, a social network with over 40 million people creating and sharing 6 second videos. We can use this popular free mobile app and social network to engage our students and get them to connect with our subject matter. "
Beth Dichter's insight:
What could your students create in 6 seconds with Vine? More than you might think. This post by Shelly Terrell shares over 22 ideas to help get your students creating Vines as well as information that is key to being successful. One example...did you know that students must be over 17 to have a Vine account? This means that most teachers would have to create a classroom account (and probably check your Acceptable Use Policy and get parents permission). The good news is that you can create an account that would only allow parents and students from your classroom to view the Vines. Many additional resources are shared within the post including a recorded webinar by Turrell and also download her slides.

"The evolution of the web from Web 1.0 to Web 2.0 and now to Web 3.0 can be used a metaphor of how education should also be evolving, as a movement based on the evolution from Education 1.0 to Education 3.0."
Beth Dichter's insight:
Jackie Gerstein continues to explore the shift from Web 1.0 to Web 2.0 to Web 3.0 , taking it "one step further" by looking at Pedagogy (related to children's learning), Andragogy (related to adults learning) and Heutagogy (related to self-directed learning). The graphic above shows how she defines these three areas in more detail. She notes that this shift is moving us from a teacher directed classroom which education driven by essentialism or instructivism (Education 1.0) to a constructivist approach, "where the principles of active, experiential, authentic, relevant, socially-networked learning experiences are built into the class or course structure" (Education 2.0) to a more heutalogical approach (Education 3.0). The discussion then looks at how to choose a teaching orientation (and it need not always be the same) and then applies these concepts to mobile learning. Many resources are included in this post such as a table describing Education 1.0, Education 2.0 and Education 3.0; a Google Drive Presentation on PBL in a High School Science Class that uses mobile technologies; a SlideShare that looks at Education 3.0 and the Pedagogy of Mobile Learning (presenting the concepts discussed in the post); and many links to additional resources.

A useful summary table although I'd emphasise that the different 'versions' of education all have their place - v2.0 does not supercede v1.0

Thank you. I'm not quite ready myself to do away with teaching professionals or brick and mortal education. I value learning in a group context. I found the second summary table more useful (pedagogy, andragogy, heutagogy)

We could talk of the evolution from Education 2.0 to education 3.0 after carrying an evaluation on the impact of the Web 2.0 in education |
For all you Vine aficionados. Lessons using 6 second videos.
