Motiver ?
Depuis la fin du XIXème siècle, de nombreux de pédagogues ont avancé des propositions pour donner vie et force au désir d’apprendre. Alfred Binet, pédagogue et psychologue français, plus connu pour ses tests, écrivait par exemple en 1902 dans son livre « Les idées modernes sur les enfants » :
: « Au lieu de lui expliquer des idées, il vaut mieux les lui faire trouver ; au lieu de lui donner des ordres, il vaut mieux lui laisser la spontanéité de ses actes, et n’intervenir que pour contrôler ». Il ajoutait plus loin : « Entrez dans une classe ; si vous voyez les élèves immobiles, écoutant sans peine un maître agité qui pérore dans sa chaire, ou encore vous voyez ces enfants, copier, écrire le cours que le maître leur dicte, dites-vous que c’est de la mauvaise pédagogie. J’aime mieux une classe où je verrais des enfants moins silencieux, plus bruyants mais occupés à faire le travail le plus modeste, pourvu que ce soit un travail où ils mettent un effort personnel, un travail qui est leur œuvre, qui exige un peu de réflexion, de jugement et de goût. »
Depuis la mise en place des écoles actives voici plus d’un siècle, l’activité justement et l’autonomie de l’élève, son plaisir de découvrir par lui-même, de se questionner et de chercher sont recommandés comme les meilleurs agents de la motivation. Les questions nourrissent la curiosité et entraînent la dynamique du « connaître ». Les attentes de l’enfant, ses projets jouent un rôle moteur, auquel contribuent fondamentalement la confiance dans ses compétence intellectuelles et l’estime de soi, que notre système scolaire met particulièrement à mal.

The classroom of the future, according to the world’s best teachers
By Global Teacher Prize | March 2nd 2018
In many parts of the world, today’s classrooms are almost unrecognisable compared to those of a decade ago.
Technology is changing the way students learn and teachers teach. From interactive white boards replacing chalk boards to tablets replacing desktop computers, schools are becoming increasingly digital.
Looking ahead to 2030, greater internet connectivity and smarter technologies promise to radically reshape the classroom of the future.
We asked the Global Teacher Prize 2018 Finalists to share their views on how they feel the classroom will change in the coming decade, and what this means for the role of the teacher.
What do you think will be the biggest difference between the classroom of 2030 and the classroom of today?
Many of our Finalists predict that the trend of young people effectively teaching themselves will continue. Learn more / En savoir plus / Mehr erfahren: https://www.scoop.it/t/21st-century-learning-and-teaching/

Education may be the passport to the future, but for all the good teaching out there, it would seem that schools are failing to impart some of the most important life skills, according to one educational expert.
Dr. Tony Wagner, co-director of Harvard's Change Leadership Group, argues that today’s school children are facing a “global achievement gap”, which is the gap between what even the best schools are teaching and the skills young people need to learn.
This has been exacerbated by two colliding trends: firstly, the global shift from an industrial economy to a knowledge economy, and secondly, the way in which today’s school children – brought up with the internet – are motivated to learn.
In his book The Global Achievement Gap, Wagner identifies seven core competencies every child needs in order to survive in the coming world of work.
1. Critical thinking and problem-solving 2. Collaboration across networks and leading by influence 3. Agility and adaptability 4. Initiative and entrepreneurialism 5. Effective oral and written communication 6. Accessing and analysing information

If you work in social media, explaining your job can be a frustrating experience - especially to family members who probably assume that you just use Facebook all day.
For Community Managers, in particular, there tends to be a lot of confusion over exactly what the role entails.
To clear things up, I thought I’d delve into the world of community management and find out why it’s becoming increasingly important for brands of all kinds.
Here’s a beginner’s guide.
What does a community manager do?
The role of a community manager is to act as the bridge between a brand and the community it is aiming to create (i.e. a loyal audience or group of core consumers connected by a similar interest).
They should be the brand’s ambassador, engaging with potential customers and building relationships with existing ones. They are also focused on gauging sentiment around the brand, using social listening tools in order to monitor feedback and engagement.

Preparing a child for the world that doesn’t yet exist is not an easy task for any teacher. Step back and look at that picture from a broad perspective. What are the critical 21st-century skills every learner needs to survive and succeed in our world? What abilities and traits will serve them in a time that’s changing and developing so rapidly?
They want to be challenged and inspired in their learning. They want to collaborate and work with their peers. They want to incorporate the technology they love into their classroom experiences as much as they can. In short, they have just as high a set of expectations of their educators as their educators have of them.
How Are Educators Responding?
The Australian Curriculum Assessment and Reporting Authority, (ACARA), have identified the following as the General Capabilities they see as essential for learners:
Critical and creative thinking
Personal and social capability
Ethical understanding
Intercultural understanding
Information and communication technology capability
Literacy
Numeracy

I never say that in criticism of teachers or of school principals or even of superintendents. That's something in the culture ─ at least, the political culture ─ of education. There is pressure on the system that gets in the way of what people most urgently need to do in schools to make them more humane and more personal places. There's really a lot more room for innovation in schools than people suspect. A lot of what goes on isn’t required by law; it's more a function of habit and tradition and routine than anything else.”
This habit of tradition and routine is exactly why education has remained woefully behind the times. In the business of education, we don’t have the usual market pressures that require innovation. Public education is a monopoly with no real competition to require forward movement.

During this time of significant educational change, we are forced to ask ourselves, what is the role of the teacher?
Teachers continue to be central to learning, but the role is changing significantly. Our children still need to develop real skills and real knowledge, but they also need to be self-reliant, resilient, and fully capable of re-inventing themselves. This means students must learn how to self-direct their learning.
So if students are self-directing their learning, what's the role of the teacher?
Teachers build the curriculum/lessons with the individual student based on his/her needs and interests rather than move through a fixed curriculum en masse.
Teachers provide the experiences and tools to access new knowledge in specific areas of interest as facilitators of individual pathways, rather than being a provider of the content or expert in one or every area,Teachers become experts in how people learn, not only in teaching.
Teachers support a community of learners in teams, possibly of multiple ages, rather than alone in classrooms with fixed grades of students.
Teachers have more autonomy over their daily schedule, and can be flexible to adjust their schedules to support student needs.
Teachers provide opportunities for real-world, connected, practical learning rather than isolated academics.
These are the types of changes in the teacher's role that are fundamental to developing students who are capable of independent learning and reinvention in a rapidly changing world.

Flipping the curriculum could help us meet the demands of the artificial-intelligence era
Technologies such as artificial intelligence, robotics, and biotech are redefining what it means to be human—and employable.
Jobs are disappearing as automation replaces the need for people. New occupations are emerging that demand competencies that can transfer across the multiple assignments workers will experience in their lives. The disappearance of global boundaries presents opportunities—and risks—for all workers.
These changes demand a significant, ambitious evolution in how we prepare students for their future in a world that's increasingly volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous. We need a relevant and modernized education. Learn more / En savoir plus / Mehr erfahren: https://www.scoop.it/t/21st-century-learning-and-teaching/?&tag=modern-education

Teacher professional learning is of increasing interest as one way to support the increasingly complex skills students need to learn in preparation for further education and work in the 21st century. Sophisticated forms of teaching are needed to develop student competencies such as deep mastery of challenging content, critical thinking, complex problem-solving, effective communication and collaboration, and self-direction. In turn, effective professional development (PD) is needed to help teachers learn and refine the pedagogies required to teach these skills. However, research has shown that many PD initiatives appear ineffective in supporting changes in teacher practices and student learning. Accordingly, we set out to discover the features of effective PD. This paper reviews 35 methodologically rigorous studies that have demonstrated a positive link between teacher professional development, teaching practices, and student outcomes. We identify the features of these approaches and offer rich descriptions of these models to inform those seeking to understand the nature of the initiatives.

Big Data is a term that has been around for some time now but there is still confusion about what it actually is. The concept is continuing to evolve and to be reconsidered, as it remains the driving force behind many ongoing waves of digital transformation, including artificial intelligence, data science and the Internet of Things (IoT).
With that in mind I thought it was time to write a beginner’s guide to what Big Data means in 2017. In a similar way to my beginner’s guides to Blockchain and FinTech, this will be jargon-free and aims to explain the core concepts and ideas to anyone regardless of background knowledge.

Empowerment of people through Media and Information Literacy (MIL) is an important prerequisite for fostering equitable access to information and knowledge and promoting free, independent and pluralistic media and information systems. Media and Information Literacy recognizes the primary role of information and media in our everyday lives. It lies at the core of freedom of expression and information - since it empowers citizens to understand the functions of media and other information providers, to critically evaluate their content, and to make informed decisions as users and producer of information and media content.

Strategies that target students’ metacognition—the ability to think about thinking—can close a gap that some students experience between how prepared they feel for a test and how prepared they actually are. In a new study, students in an introductory college statistics class who took a short online survey before each exam asking them to think about how they would prepare for it earned higher grades in the course than their peers—a third of a letter grade higher, on average.
This low-cost intervention helped students gain insight into their study strategies, boosting their metacognitive skills and giving them tools to be more independent learners.
