How People Learn: Brain, Mind, Experience, and School: Expanded Edition - 5 views

  •  
    "One instructional strategy, termed "bridging," has been successful in helping students overcome persistent misconceptions (Brown, 1992; Brown and Clement, 1989; Clement, 1993). The bridging strategy attempts to bridge from students' correct beliefs (called anchoring conceptions) to their misconceptions through a series of intermediate analogous situations."

  • Put the question through the following filters: Does this question draw out and work with pre-existing understandings that students bring with them?

In Defense of the Sage on the Stage: Escaping from the 'Sorcery' of Learnin...: Univers... - 0 views

  •  
    I found this article in the UAlbany library - if the link doesn't work, do a search for "In Defense of the Sage on the Stage" by Marianne Jennings. It's a fascinating article, a long read, but passionate in its insistence that we have gone too far in our efforts to make everything student-centered. Jennings makes the argument that there IS still room for the "brilliant lecturer."

Six Facets of Understanding - 0 views

  • Plan instructional strategies and learning experiences that bring students to these competency levels.
    • lkryder
       
      This is key for me - bring students to the competency levels - this is like the "bridging" Mike mentioned
  • Required uncoverage of abstract or often misunderstood ideas
    • lkryder
       
      uncoverage of abstract or often misunderstood ideas is really learner centered and fits nicely with the CoI model in that the social perspectives present will foster a richer interpretation of topics under scrutiny
  •  
    A remnant of a faculty development workshop - many links don't work but this page is a nice summary of the ideas

  • There are just too many posts.
    • alexandra m. pickett
       
      6 high quality posts in discussion per module (that is 3 per week) and 2 blog posts per module (one per week). You really think that is too much???
  • if the “essence” of the student can never be felt through a computer?
    • alexandra m. pickett
       
      I question your assumptions about "essence" and "attendance" and "asking questions" and "peer acknowledgement" How can you say they are missing from an online class when we have examples of all these things all over the place this class?!
  • These are essentials missing from online courses that can not be seen.
    • alexandra m. pickett
       
      REALLY?????!!!
  • ...7 more annotations...
  • can’t be measured.In class,
    • alexandra m. pickett
       
      i know every single click you have made in my cousre. I know dates, times, quantity. I have more data on you and your attendance and participation than any f2f teacher does.
  • ask questions and further ideas discussed in class allows the teacher to know if the student is on the right track.
    • alexandra m. pickett
       
      This is not only demonstrated in the ask a question area of the course, but in the talk with the professor area, the Bulletin Board, and in the suggestion box area, not to mention the discussion area itself as well as via email. Have you not observed how i keep you on track in this course?
  • Even acknowledging that the student in class is thinking for himself and paying attention is taken into consideration by the teacher. In the classroom, discussion leaders can be acknowledge by the rest of the peers and possibly offer suggestions for them on how to stand firm in opinions and facts
    • alexandra m. pickett
       
      Don't you see how we do this with peer evaluations and the interaction and teaching presence demonstrated by students in the course?
  • how could she even know what type of personality her professor has if she has never even seen him in person
    • alexandra m. pickett
       
      Don't you have a strong sense of my personality? And what about the personalities of your classmates? Don't you hear their voices in their posts??
  • it’s worth it. I
  • This “cured” my misconception, as this course marked my first course ever taking an online course.
  • I feel amazing
