Caine's Arcade Style: Project Based Learning | Today is a Great Day for Learning - 0 views

  •  
    "We have been doing a lot of learning this year that is different than I would have imagined if you would have asked me 17 months ago. My teaching colleague, Gallit Zvi and I embarked on our own journey of discovery to team teach 2 classes of grade 6/7 students. When we started we were nervous but excited to start. We didn't know where it was going to take us because we were constantly learning new things on twitter that we could adapt, collaborate on, and make our own. We did know that we both wanted to jump into a project based model for student learning because we knew we could model a collaborative environment necessary to make it successful for our students. However we didn't know where and how to start. We saw ourselves as guides through unique learning experiences that connect learning in the classroom to their lives outside of the classroom. We were just looking for that sign on which direction we should help guide them towards."

It's not about the technology…or is it? | The Principal of Change - 2 views

The Finland Phenomenon: Learning from the new Tony Wagner film | Connected Principals - 1 views

  • Finnish system is praised extraordinarily highly for its global success, and yet students don’t work terribly hard, have many choices, use technology creatively, enjoy the integration of the arts, and learn in a culture which emphasizes depth over breadth and less is more.
  • Students are shown researching and collaborating online in their studies, and many classrooms are shown with a wide array of technological units, not just computers.   Students use wikipedia and facebook when researching very current topics, and Wagner explains that there is a culture of trust that is extended to students in their technology usage.
  • A particularly inspiring moment comes when Wagner reports stumbling across a project at one school, the “Innovation Camp,” in which teams of students are given 26 hours to come up with a new product or service.
