  • learning amongst ourselves is the real work in organizations today
  • social learning is how work gets done
  • Personal knowledge management (PKM) skills can help to make sense of, and learn from, the constant stream of information that workers encounter from social channels both inside and outside the organization.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • PKM is a process of filtering, creating, and discerning, and it also helps manage individual professional development through continuous learning.
  • Work is changing and so organizational learning must change. There is an urgent need for organizational support functions (HR, OD, KM, Training) to move beyond offering training services and toward supporting learning as it is happening in the digitally connected workplace. The connected workplace will not wait for the training department to catch up.

    "But in practice, curriculum maps are almost always not the "living, breathing" documents that experts like Heidi Jacobs Hayes promote. They are instead very dead things -- lifeless prisons of content to be covered, and boxes to be highlighted in Data Team and Professional Learning Community meetings. For a curriculum map or any planned learning experience to be vital -- and vitally useful -- it must be adaptive and circular rather than rigid and linear. It must by design be able to respond to the performance of the students. And more critically, this planned learning experience must encourage students to continue their pursuit of understanding and self-knowledge."

    Great quote. Liked reading this article. Seems like it's truncated on Edutopia, though. Tried to comment on edutopia but it's acting all wonky.

    "it is important to recognize that the media are themselves a product of society, and thus are shaped by fundamental processes of social change. The same technologies can be taken up for progressive or more traditional education goals."

    Some interesting ideas here. But I would contend with, first, with the lack of non-technology 'innovative ways' to approach 21 century learning, and, second, his 'ranking' of what is 'obsolete'. thoughts?
  • Joel Scanga on 23 Mar 14
     
    Just saw this Doug. I agree that innovative movements in education certainly don't need to involve technology. When I read this article I see much more than technology tool as offerings 21st century learning. I see major themes including collaboration, information access, personalization of the learning process, student choice, and better opportunities for students to be active learners. It's true you can't read too many paragraphs in this article that don't involve words like "blog" and "device." Yet, if these tools have become such a useful part of the lives of the 21st century student, why shouldn't we as teachers advocate for their use in our curriculum re-designs and innovative approaches to 21 century learning in schools?

    Interesting to me that as tech is more effectively used, the less apparent it becomes. This speaks to the power of the user of a tool. You don't usually think of a plumber as being good at a wrench, you just know he has the knowledge and experience it takes to get you out a bind when it comes to a plumbing problem. The more our 6th graders use their laptops this year, the less the teaching and learning seems to focus on the laptop itself. An example of this is the 6th grade trip to Budapest for the Fall of The Red Star and '56 Hungarian Revolution against the Russians. Tech was not the focus, but was a powerful tool for collecting pictures, pooling discoveries, and getting feedback on writing and thinking. The final product created from these things was a 1956 student lead assembly. The assembly itself was not tech heavy. Students read reflections, personal poetry on the subject, and a only a few tech elements were outwardly visible during the assembly. Student thinking became the focus and the power of this production. The more I reflect on this assembly the more I am convinced that if tech was not a part of these students undertakings, this program would not have been as much as success. The ability Ms. Herbert and Mr. Valezy had in giving feedback on student writing and questions for the Hungarian guest speakers. The videos posted to YouTube and pictures students viewed of each others experiences in Budapest, the map Mr. Farren and Mr. Valezy created to help support the student's inquiry of Budapest in 1956 were all invaluable tools that supported student thinking. This doesn't mention all of the many ways we don't see students using tech. They might be communicating outside of class using Skype or G-chat, giving each other opinions or ideas in a comment in a Google Doc, or using cell phones to collect and share experiences behind the scenes. In the end we saw the culmination of a plethora of techniques some tech heavy and some not as much

    Great summation, Joel. I agree, the more effectively tech is used, the less we notice it. Reminds me of the fact that we often define technology as being those things that don't always work, like a computer. But things like a toaster or TV are not considered technology by many. We don't teach TV or toaster use in "tech class".
  • Nick Hall on 06 Nov 13
     
    Would agree with Bill great summary Joel. Problem or challenge is to get people to realise this and then embrace the tech or choose the right time to use tech.

  • a lot of psychologists are actually skeptical that digital media are likely to fundamentally change the fundamentals of human cognition.
  • Steven Pinker has written "Electronic media aren't going to revamp the brain's mechanisms of information processing." I made the same argument here.
  • he basic architecture is likely to be relatively fixed, and in the absence of extreme deprivation, will develop fairly predictably.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • Rather, the seemingly shorter attention span is their ability to maintain attention on a task that is not very interesting to them.
  • The second is the willingness to do so.
  • It's much easier for me to accept that one's beliefs--beliefs about what is worthy of my attention, beliefs about how much effort I should dispense to tasks--can be moved around, because beliefs are a product of experience.

  • The tool isn’t the problem. WE are the problem. If we don’t know how to provide options for students and then get out of the way, we aren’t transforming their learning. In my opinion, children need to have access to MULTIPLE devices so that they can make decisions about what best suits them for a specific learning activity.

    Explains the need for freedom and choice in a 1:1 program.

    Good read. Having tool options forces people to think about which option is best (since they are not always equal, depending on situation). Interesting though how many people just want to be told which tool to use, avoiding the messiness of having to find the best tool (which will always be a moving target). What happens when the "teller" or "tool decider" is no longer around? Hmm.
