Why Do I Teach? - NYTimes.com - 0 views

  • We should judge teaching not by the amount of knowledge it passes on, but by the enduring excitement it generates. Knowledge, when it comes, is a later arrival, flaring up, when the time is right, from the sparks good teachers have implanted in their students’ souls.
  • Beyond that—at least it is often said—we need critical thinking and creativity: the ability to detect tacit but questionable assumption and to develop new ways of understanding issues—in short, to think beyond what “everyone knows.”

Avenue4Learning - The Tool Isn't The Problem - 1 views

  • 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.

The Connected Workplace | Harold Jarche - 1 views

  • 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.

      Amen.
