BIG's zoo makeover to offer "freest possible environment" for animals

BIG's zoo makeover to offer "freest possible environment" for animals | Design, Science and Technology | Scoop.it
BIG presents a vision for the future of Denmark's Givskud Zoo where animals and humans "co-exist", and all the architecture is hidden within the topography.

Named Zootopia, the proposal reimagines the 1960s zoo and safari park in central Jutland as a continuous landscape of forests, savannahs and rivers that centre around a sunken courtyard of visitors' facilities. 

"It is our dream – with Givskud – to create the best possible and freest possible environment for the animals' lives and relationships with each other and visitors," said BIG, the office led by architect Bjarke Ingels.

Comme évoqué avec l'exemple de la bicyclette, c'est aussi en créant l'occasion d'expériences plaisantes que chacun peut s'ouvrir à de nouvelles pratiques plus durables ... et partant, être prêt à écouter aussi des informations relatives à la nécessité de sobriété dans les consommations et les déchets, puis modifier son  comportement ?

Establishing A Culture Of “Can” In Your Classroom

Establishing A Culture Of “Can” In Your Classroom | Design, Science and Technology | Scoop.it

"The long-term output of any school should be not just proficient students, but enabled learners. An “enabled” learner can grasp macro views, uncover micro details, ask questions, plan for new knowledge and transfer thinking across divergent circumstances. This doesn’t happen by content “knowledge holding,” or even by the fire of enthusiasm, but by setting a tone for learning that suggests possibility, and by creating a culture of can."

Beth Dichter's curator insight, August 4, 2014 9:35 PM

One of my favorite videos on growth mindset is Carol Dweck sharing the word yet, specifically where she says that if a student says "I can't do that" she says to tell the student to say "I can't do that yet." To me that is a way to shift the culture of the classroom, where students learn that as time goes on what they are able to do things they could not before.

This post explores this culture of "can", sharing ideas on how you might move your classroom to reach this culture. Three areas are discussed.

1. Use the Gradual Release of Responsibility Model

This is a model that many of us may already use. The post describes it as "show me, help me, let me." In my school we talk about "I do, we do, you do."

2. Intentionally Use the Individual Student as a Culture-Maker

This requires that we find the time as we teach to "honor the contribution of others," specifically our students. Culture does not grow from a top down approach.

3. Diverse — and Authentic — Terms for Success

Creating a classroom that is learner centered, where students also have input to help create authentic learning.

More information on these concepts are in the post.

Nancy Jones's curator insight, August 5, 2014 11:36 AM

Love the ideas here and realize the challenge of the mission. Our kids need to embrace their mistakes as learning opportunities rather than expect immediate mastery and feedback with praise.  i am thinking of making a classroom poster ( or posters) with the Word "YET" in giant letters and use that as our mantra.

Customer Experience Intelligence Inspires Innovation

Customer Experience Intelligence Inspires Innovation | Design, Science and Technology | Scoop.it

The most intelligent organizations are overcoming battlegrounds and silos to maximize their return on customer intelligence. They're insisting on the "dog wagging the tail" by instilling customer experience context for all actions and decisions company-wide. They're applying customer intelligence to innovate the full customer experience "bundle". And they're equipping organizational learning by sharing, showing actionable patterns, focusing on what customers are trying to get done, and being proactive in enabling customers to love the company. .

You may teach online or you may teach face-to-face or perhaps you combine the two, but in all cases the learners we work with have a variety of learning styles. Today we  are told that each student should receive personalized learning opportunities. This post provides a look at ten types of learners you may find in your classroom (on or offline). By understanding the type of learners you will be able to design more effective lessons (and also personalize them to the best of your ability. 

Each type of learner is described in more depth under the visualization.

The coaching entrepreneurs I work with align heavily with the "Freedom Seeker" Traits and the "Passionate Creators." They've supported their families, community projects, spouses, adult parents all while building their businesses. They're passionate about changing the world but seek the freedom to schedule and work in a way that supports their own wellness. Conscious entrepreneurs are learning that putting themselves first isn't selfish. It's foundational to living out their mission.

Being Critically Reflective - What does it mean?

Being Critically Reflective - What does it mean? | Design, Science and Technology | Scoop.it
The terms 'critical' and 'reflection' are sorely misunderstood in education. Being critical is often misinterpreted as being negative. 'Reflection' is also frequently distorted to mean "reflect on what you are doing wrong". Too often the students that we teach give negative feedback when asked to be critical. So to counter act this, educators initiate strategies such as '2 stars and a wish' and SWNI (strengths, weaknesses, new ideas).
These strategies are designed to make reflective practices a more positive experience for students. It teaches them that being critically reflective is not just a negative activity, that it is important to be positive and give feedback to help improve or make something better.

A person can't be 100% productive all day. As much as you want to make the most of every minute, to get stuff done, to hustle, it's just not humanly possible. Concentration is like a muscle: It needs to rest to be able to function, and it shouldn't be overworked. Otherwise it'll simply burn out and take longer to get back into the swing of things.
