  • We want to stretch the triangle like this: more access, more quality, less cost. But with traditional teaching methods we can’t. It is an iron triangle.
  • unhealthy link between quality and exclusivity
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • that link is unnecessary and technology can break it
  • the revolution that breaks the iron triangle works with all technologies because it is rooted in the basic principles of technology
  • division of labour, specialisation, economies of scale, and the use of machines and communications media
  • the basis of the industrial revolution
  • the new technologies that let us share, study and socialise simultaneously
  • Our only requirement is to think of postsecondary education as a system and apply to it the principles of division of labour and specialisation in the service of the learner

    3 vectors of Access, Quality and Cost - and we want to stretch the triangle to have more access, more quality and less cost = "iron triangle" if using traditional teaching methods => unhealthy link between quality and exclusivity in the popular mindset about higher ed; iron triangle can be stretched if we think of higher ed as a system and apply principles of division of labor and specialization (i.e., "unbundle" the professor)

    2 guides to support UDL course redesign: - faculty development workshop guide (2 hour) - UDL Institute Guide (one or 2 day) UDL-U supports postsecondary faculty and staff by providing resources and examples to improve postsecondary education for all students, including those with disabilities. UDL-U is designed to be useful for individual inquiries related to small UDL topics, issues, or problems, as well as scalable to larger faculty development efforts (e.g., Faculty Learning Communities). UDL-U frames course redesign as a three-tier professional development process: 1. Application of UDL principles to enhance teaching and learning 2. Utilization of accessible instructional media and practices 3. Awareness of assistive technology enablers and barriers

  • Second time play is faster, more animated and a bit more competitive. After playing, students can articulate how their strategy changed from the first time and what they plan to do differently the next time they play.
  • When observing students play, I’ve been struck by their concentration when learning the rules the first time they play.  They tend to collaborate throughout the whole play session and remain engaged for the duration of game play.
  • we developed the card game as a stand-alone product
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • Games provide a safe space for exploring difficult to navigate systems
  • Apart from an uneven playing field in the caliber of academic instruction afforded to students across schools, perhaps the most glaring problem in public high school education is access to high quality college guidance and support.
