The school is the main author of curricula. And the teacher is the sole authority monitoring the progress of students.
In Finland, there is a strong sense of trust in schools and teachers to carry out these responsibilities. There is no external inspection of schools or standardized testing of all pupils in Finland. For our national analysis of educational performance, we rely on testing only a small sample of students.

Reflections on #lrnchat: Design Thinking - 2 views

Incorporating design thinking into learning design requires an open mind, and a willingness to look at what we do very differently. Too often, the ‘D’ in the ‘ID’ role stands for developer, not designer. We take a problem and immediately plug a solution into the template of our chosen authoring tool.

-
By assuming I am wrong, not just about the solution but also about my understanding of the problem, I am forced to dig deeper. I am forced to think more about the problem, trying to better understand it from the perspective of those living it

This is up my alley. Thanks -
Good introduction but doesn't cover what I need explained - "how to pick the text / terms / action words" on the diagrams". Doesn't say why it's different from mindmap.

Great concept. His idea that publishing is a higher order thinking skill even than creating and that if students are publishing products and ideas, this will demand great rigour and learning makes a great deal of sense. Highly informative and short and sweet learning video.
