Using Technology to Enhance Engaged Learning for At-Risk Students - 1 views

  • Teachers can draw on technology applications to simulate real-world environments and create actual environments for experimentation, so that students can carry out authentic tasks as real workers would, explore new terrains, meet people of different cultures, and use a variety of tools to gather information and solve problems."

      This is what I am currently wrestling with: how do I monitor student contributions to my course if they work in a cooperative group? I hated being that kid in the group that did all the work!

Meridian Article: Authentic Learning: A Practical Introduction & Guide for Implementation - 0 views

  • Learning is closely connected to the world beyond the walls of the classroom.
    • Maree Michaud-Sacks
       
      This is what I will be exploring in my online course. How can we use technology to connect classroom learning with real life practice.
  • Students produce a product that can be shared with an audience outside the classroom.
    • Maree Michaud-Sacks
       
      This idea relates to students using multimedia to present their experience. Being able to summarize and present what they learned is a good reflection, and is a product that can be shared outside the classroom.
  • Learning is student driven with teachers, parents, and outside experts all assisting/coaching in the learning process.
    • Maree Michaud-Sacks
       
      Even though authentic learning is student centered, instructor can still help guide learners by assisting and coaching when needed.

Archived: What Are Promising Ways to Assess Student Learning? - 0 views

  •  
    New forms of student assessment are designed to demonstrate what students are learning and what they can do with their knowledge. Known variously as "alternative" or "more authentic" measures, these assessments require students to "perform" in some way--by writing, demonstrating, explaining, or constructing a project or experiment--so they are also called "performance-based" tests.

      It's great to have a glossary.  It may be some thing the student in the course can do to understand badging.
    • Amy M
       
      I think students sometimes need steps, and this is a great resource for students to think about what they will actually be doing.
    • Amy M
       
      Badging is specifically, and most importantly, built on the idea of eportfolios or some system that contains the work being assessed.  A great connection.

Cognitive Apprenticeship, Technology, and the Contextualization of Learning Environments - 2 views

  • The authors (Collins, Brown, & Holum, 1991; Collins, Brown, & Newman,1989) as well as other researchers (Herrington & Oliver, 2000) have refined this model to the belief that useable knowledge is best gained in learning environments featuring the following characteristics:   Authentic context that allows for the natural complexity of the real world Authentic activities Access to expert performances and the modeling of processes Multiple roles and perspectives Collaboration to support the cooperative construction of knowledge Coaching and scaffolding which provides the skills, strategies and links that the students are initially unable to provide to complete the task Reflection to enable abstractions to be formed Articulation to enable tacit knowledge to be made explicit
  • The goal of learning, therefore, is to engage learners in legitimate peripheral participation in communities of practice (Lave and Wenger 1991). Through community, learners interpret, reflect, and form meaning. Community provides the setting for the social interaction needed to engage in dialogue with others to see various and diverse perspectives on any issue. Community is the joining of practice with analysis and reflection to share the tacit understandings and to create shared knowledge from the experiences among participants in a learning opportunity (Wenger 1998).
  • The goal of cognitive apprenticeship is to address the problem of inert knowledge and to make the thinking processes of a learning activity visible to both the students and the teacher.  T

      This is a great feature for students to hear authentic Spanish speakers.
    • Barbara Recchio-Demmin
       
      Here is a comment to my comment. We Spanish teachers who are not of Spanish-speaking origins often carry an accent with us no matter how hard we try to erase it. This is one reason why it is so important to expose our students to authentic materials in order to help them learn proper pronunciation.

      Learning about Spanish in context is one of the foundations for increased interest in language learning. The relevance of learning nouns and verbs becomes clear once students understand the people and culture associated with the target language

A Constructionist Approach to Online college Learning - 0 views

  •  
    The key elements of online course design and pedagogy suggested by research as promoting effective learning are discussed through the lens of constructivist epistemology. Presentation of content, instructor-student and student-student interactions, individual and group activities, and student assessment are each addressed, in turn. The focus is on learning and recognition that, from time-to-time, all students are teachers as they bring diverse expertise, experiences, and worldviews to the task of learning. Reflection on past experiences, interaction with other members of the learning community, immediate instructor behavior, authentic group activities, and diverse assessment tasks with timely and detailed feedback are underscored.
