As the clock ticks down to the end of 2016, it's a perfect time to reflect on the past 12 months. I derive a huge pleasure in creating drawings related to education and then sharing them on social media. A question I often get is, "What are your most popular sketchnotes?". Well, thanks to Twitter, it's…

Mastery learning is the idea that students should adequately comprehend a given concept before being expected to understand a more advanced one. This idea has a long tradition in educational theory and research. In 1919, superintendent Carleton W. Washburne in Winnetka, Illinois, showed that students could advance at their own pace if they mastered a concept before moving on to something more complicated. Years later, building on Washburne’s work, educational psychologist Benjamin Bloom coined the term “mastery learning.” In 1984, in Bloom’s seminal study, “The 2 Sigma Problem,” he showed that mastery-based one-on-one tutoring is two standard deviations more effective than conventional instruction. (That means it would take the average for a cohort of students from the 50th percentile to the 98th percentile!). Ever since, educators have sought ways to make mastery learning available to all students.

Modern educational process undergoes regular changes and one of the main reasons of that is technological development. Not only the technology develops nowadays, children and teachers do too. This fact contributes to the constant enhancement of the approaches, methods of teaching let alone accommodation, devices, and facilities. Though there are many disagreements on this topic, classrooms also change their look getting much more technologically advanced. Soon modern students will not see customary for us classrooms as schools will adopt completely new requirements to them and up-and-coming technologies located there. Let us see what innovative technologies that have recently appeared will soon reside in the future classrooms.

In 2013 Oxford University published what is now regarded as a seminal paper that concluded that up to 47 percent of all of todays jobs would be automated in the next twenty years and similarly the new White House report also forecasts the loss of tens of millions of jobs with no sector, and very few jobs immune from the march of technology.
Fears of widespread unemployment driven by automation have helped popularize the idea of paying everyone, irrespective of their background and circumstances, a regular lump sum of money to either complement or replace their earnings – UBI. A concept that’s already being trialled in countries including Canada, Finland, the Netherlands and Scotland, and which is also gaining favour in Norway, Sweden, the UK and the US, UBI is being pushed by conservative thinkers like Milton Friedman and Silicon Valley investment firms like Y Combinator who think that, under the circumstances, it might be cheaper and easier to administer than other more complex forms of social welfare. But Obama’s White House prefers to focus on education and job training rather than guaranteed income.

Large platform companies like Amazon, Apple, Google, Samsung, and Microsoft want to provide the operating system for our lives, and they will fight hard in 2017 to establish their foothold in the emerging technologies we will likely come to rely on in the future.
Who will succeed? Those with the most complete product offerings have an advantage. Since people like to buy products that play well with the other products they already own, a platform company risks losing customers by not having a product in a hot category. These large companies already have an advantage over smaller companies due to their massive R&D budgets and their ability to hire the best people to build the stuff we want now and to anticipate the technology we’ll want in the future. And if a hot product is developed by some ambitious startup, these giants can easily swoop in and acquire both the product and the people who created it.
These categories, while not new, will be the front lines of the platform wars in 2017." Jim Lerman's insight: Nice overview

In School Climate Change: How Do I Build a Positive Environment for Learning (ASCD. 2014) Sean Slade and I wrote that, "We believe there are four critical elements to school climate which are:
Engagement Empowerment and Autonomy Inclusivity and Equity Environment" In looking at environment, there are many simple and complicated ways to improve the school climate. One of the simple ways to improve the school climate is through smiling more or welcoming people at the door, whether we are talking about students, teachers or parents. One of the more complicated ways is to focus on school climate is through the use of school climate surveys, like the one provided by the National School Climate Center, and discussing the results with staff and then taking actionable steps toward improving it.
There are at least 7 other ways to improve school climate, and help turn around some of the negativity that we seem to be hit with on a daily basis. Those 7 ways are: Focus on creativity more than compliance - We all have compliance issues we have to deal with but they don't have to always get in the way of our creativity. Try having a no testing week, which you can read about here. Or, encourage the use of makerspaces and innovative learning like that. Flip faculty meetings or schedule an edcamp.
