The Connected Educator's Hotspot: I thought we decided that

The Connected Educator's Hotspot: I thought we decided that | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Had a great conversation with some fellow administrators this weekend.  We were reflecting on how sometimes people have trouble accepting a change in practice.  While I have sharedposts before on how to go about making changes in practice or procedures to create buy-in from staff, the discussion we had was geared toward what to do about staff that have not seemed to embrace the change and keep bringing it up in a negative manner.


 It's funny, depending on your perspective of course, how the little things can seem to be such a large distraction to your day as a building leader.  


The change in practice, one of my Tweeps shared, was a small practice that had taken place in the past, but it was one of those procedural things that shared information about student and was now easily handled through technology with the use of the Student Information System the district uses.  


However, staff members were used to having this information delivered to them daily.  I know, many may say this seems to be a first world problem, but as a building leader it becomes more than that.

AERA 2010 Conference: Constructivism + Embodied Cognition = Enactivism: Theoretical and Practical Implications for Conceptual Change Douglas L. Holton
Utah State University
doug.holton@usu.edu


Objectives:

 

- The objective of this paper is to explore specific theoretical and practical implications of recent research on embodied cognition and enactivism for the design of effective learning environments, especially those targeting conceptual change.

 

-The ultimate goal is to illustrate how enactivism and embodied cognition can help meet the criteria that often define scientific progress (Laudan, 1977), for the purpose of advancing educational research and development and constructivist theory. Namely, embodied cognition and enactivism may: \u2022 explain specific anomalies and inconsistencies in the data from experimental research on conceptual change and learning \u2022 suggest bridges for theoretical divides in conceptual change research (Vosniadou, 2007) \u2022 suggest innovative new instructional techniques \u2022 explain previously unexplained yet successful learning strategies and techniques \u2022 remove the need for certain theoretical constructs \u2022 and, provide a new foundation for existing theories of learning and cognition that suggests new lines of empirical research...

Using Classroom Technology to Offer Real-World Experiences

Using Classroom Technology to Offer Real-World Experiences | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
By bringing tech into the classroom, educators hope to acclimate students to posteducation experiences early on.

 

Experience, they say, is the best teacher. And when it comes to introducing technology to students, it’s best to quickly get past the theoretical and into the practical.

 

Using the classroom to mimic the real world has long been a tenet of education, especially in primary education, where role-playing is prominent.

 

The Hellerup School, an innovative Danish school, is skipping the controlled environment of typical classrooms and is opting for a very grown-up approach to education. The school gives its students free rein over their use of technology, without artificial constraints, in much the same way adults have access to technology as they see fit.

Heutagogy and lifelong learning: heutagogical practice and self-determined learning

Heutagogy and lifelong learning: heutagogical practice and self-determined learning | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
Heutagogy and lifelong learning: A review of heutagogical practice and self-determined learning...

 

Heutagogy, a form of self-determined learning with practices and principles rooted in andragogy, has recently resurfaced as a learning approach after a decade of limited attention. In a heutagogical approach to teaching and learning, learners are highly autonomous and self-determined and emphasis is placed on development of learner capacity and capability with the goal of producing learners who are well-prepared for the complexities of today’s workplace. The approach has been proposed as a theory for applying to emerging technologies in distance education and for guiding distance education practice and the ways in which distance educators develop and deliver instruction using newer technologies such as social media.

 

Keywords: Lifelong learning; heutagogy; self-determined learning; andragogy; self-directed learning; social media; capability; competency; double-loop learning; reflection
