Learner Journey - ePortfolio Tool

Learner Journey - ePortfolio Tool | General learning capabilities | Scoop.it
From www.learnerjourney.com - October 7, 2013 8:17 AM
E-portfolios for lifelong learning. Provides a safe, private online space to share resources, record achievements and communicate

Via Nik Peachey
Tina Jameson's insight:

As a school, you can 'try' a free account which will allow you to add 20 students - costs for upgrading are not given on site.  Pending costs, the tool looks like a fantastic way to manage student progress.  Acting a little like a Wiki, it allows you to share, communicate and encourage collaboration within a class group.

This looks like a useful tool if you want to create an eportfolio with your students. It seems to have quite thorough security.

Technology Integration Matrix to Help Enhance Student Learning

Technology Integration Matrix to Help Enhance Student Learning | General learning capabilities | Scoop.it
From fcit.usf.edu - June 23, 2013 8:41 PM

"The Technology Integration Matrix (TIM) illustrates how teachers can use technology to enhance learning for K-12 students. The TIM incorporates five interdependent characteristics of meaningful learning environments: active, constructive, goal directed (i.e., reflective), authentic, and collaborative (Jonassen, Howland, Moore, & Marra, 2003). The TIM associates five levels of technology integration (i.e., entry, adoption, adaptation, infusion, and transformation) with each of the five characteristics of meaningful learning environments. Together, the five levels of technology integration and the five characteristics of meaningful learning environments create a matrix of 25 cells..."

This is an amazing resource. It lays out a matrix of 5 tech use levels against 5 activity types and provides video case studies in each matrix block for Maths, Science, Social Studies and Lauguage Arts. That's 100 easily accessed short video case studies! Although aimed at American K12 teachers the examples cover an amazing array of tools and techniques that will readily transfer to UK FE and Skills.

Information literacy resists tight definition - Research Information | General learning capabilities | Scoop.it
From www.researchinformation.info - October 16, 2013 6:39 PM
Information literacy is not a fixed set of skills and cannot be measured as a percentage or grade. Instead it is completely contextual: what it means to be information literate depends on how we are, what we are doing and where we are doing it.
Tina Jameson's insight:

Interesting analysis of what constitutes 'Information Literacy'.

Content curation as a way for students to develop critical thinking

Content curation as a way for students to develop critical thinking | General learning capabilities | Scoop.it
From digitalis.nwp.org - July 26, 2013 11:17 AM

I wanted students to be able to funnel their interests into a more authentic academic experience so that they could learn about what they want to learn about and become empowered as researchers, both casually and formally.


Via Robin Good, Guillaume Decugis
Tina Jameson's insight:

Love the idea of telling students they are going to do 'argument curation' rather than a 'research project', as they explore information on an issue of interest.

The Flipped Classroom

The Flipped Classroom | General learning capabilities | Scoop.it
From technologyenhancedlearning.net - June 25, 2013 5:25 AM
What is the Flipped Classroom?

 

To define what the flipped classroom is first let’s consider traditional teaching methods where the teacher gives a student a task, for example, reading a chapter of a book. This would then be discussed the next day in class and then the student would be given an assignment based on the knowledge that they had gained.

The flipped classroom simply changes the order of how things are done, putting the emphasis on student centred learning. For example, initially the student is given access to learning material, such as bite size video clips. In the next classroom / lecture session, the student would then be given tasks based on what they had learned by studying the videos. The tutor would spend the time facilitating and giving support when needed. The idea behind the flipped classroom is to encourage peer to peer learning, problem based learning and the discussions that ensue between students during the lesson that are thought to contribute to deeper learning.
